After the boring days through out my coding life.At last ended up searching some movies on internet pleasuring up and cooling up myself.But the hell comes out,the minimum size of a 720p movie is starting from 500mb to gbs.So my mind got hunting me,whispering against me do you wanna wait for this video to be downloaded.At last i started searching up through torrent software finding a way to stream the video file that iam downloading.At last i have found a thing that can make the movie watch while it is still downloading unbelievably through my favourite VLC Media Player.I started streaming just away from the 20% of downloading.

• Install all the prerequisties.
• Now after a successfull installation,download a video torrent file that contains any type of video.
• Go open the torrent file with Bittorrent or uTorrent.
• After you started getting the peers connected and started downloading at a standard speed,when you reach an approximate of 10% or 15%(According to the video file size)(It is because the minimum of video headers to be downloaded,so that VLC can understand what type of video is and frames,etc),continue below.
