B. obtaining a torrent content file size from said torrent signaling from said client;
C. obtaining a tracker address from said torrent signaling from said client:
D. obtaining a peer address from a tracker;
E. contacting a peer via the peer address;
F. downloading sequential minimum size blocks of a full size segment from the peer in order to determine the segment length;
G. calculating the amount of segments from the torrent content file size and the segment length.</p> |
