How to Configure it for players

[vonclutch]

Just check the code everything is there :)

Torrent.java#setInterestedBytes(long bytes)

Does this support seeking through the video?
No, and yes. Opening the video in a normal video player won't allow you to seek. This will need some more work and you'll have to decide what you think is the best solution. TorrentStream allows you to 'seek' by using setInterestedBytes(int) on the Torrent object. This will calculate the pieces that are needed for that certain byte in the video file. This is how TorrentStreamServer-Android works. That library turns the video file into a 'real' HTTP stream that may work better due to the way partial content is handled using the TorrentInputStream.

Thank You for your reply i found out that using torrentstreamserver this can be done but i want to use this one can you tell me how to Call setInterestedBytes() and what has to be called in that function

I am using ExoPlayer in a project that is able to resume playback from a saved position and I extended my own DataSource that wraps the TorrentInputStream.
When ExoPlayer calls the open method on my DataSource, I call setInterestedBytes on the torrent.
The rest of the code is just the basic InputStream reading stuff.

Hey @hugorosario, Can you please post the code?
