How often you end up downloading big movie files from Filehosting services which turn out to be very bad quality ? All your time and bandwidth lost and you are frustated like anything? What if you can watch them even just by downloading one small splitted file? We will talk about this today if its possible.
Are you a Rapidshare, Megaupload etc. leecher/downloader?
If you are regular Rapidshare (or any other file hosting for that matter) downloader, then you may already know that Rapidshare puts a file size limit of 200 MB. So, to overcome this issue many people will split a large single file into small chunks whose size is less than 200 MB. The file extensions of small files are like .001, .part1,.r01 etc. This case is even applied for videos too. Many HD movies and high quality videos are split into small parts. To play the video/movie you have to download all parts and then extract it and play.
The Problem :
For example, consider you are downloading a high quality video. You have spent a lot of time on downloading all the files and when you extract it, to your surprise you see that there is something wrong. May be the video quality is not good or the video inside the compressed files is not the one you wanted. The name of the file is something and the movie inside is some other one. What to do now? Can’t we detect such problems forehand without downloading all the other parts?
The Solution :
Yes, we can. It is possible with Dziobas Rar Player.
- Choose Streaming from unrar to play split files.
Dziobas Rar Player, is a free movie player based on MPlayer. Dziobas rar player can play split files like .part1, .oo1 etc even without extracting them. This player is very helpful to check whether the video/movie you download is of good quality or not even before downloading other split files.
For example, a movie is split into 14 parts and you’ve downloaded .part1 file. Then you can play that .part1 file using Dziobas player and you can check the quality of movie and other issues. If you don’t like the quality of the movie, you can just stop downloading the other 13 files. There is no need to download all the 14 parts to find disappointing things like low quality etc.
By checking this single file you can decide whether to download the other parts or not. The good thing about Dziobas Rar Player is that it even supports password-protected compressed files. This is very useful software.
