If I have a file not completely downloaded, how can I access it? For example, if it is an archive, maybe some of the files inside are complete, so can I somehow open it and get to those complete files? For example if I want to gove up waiting for the rest to download.
Also if it is a video, can I watch the video even if it is not completely downloaded? Just watch the downloaded parts? (I have tried "preview file" before and that never does anything).
Thanks

For me is the same but worse, I can even access to completes downloads !!!
What can I do ?? I'm using Ubuntu 07.10 and I can't execute, copy, cut or even delete completes downloads from incoming files !!
I appreciate any help !!

Hi Justin,
Right-click the file and show the file details. It will show a part file number, something like 003.part. You'll find this file in your temp directory (usually /home/user/.aMule/temp/) and you can try to open it with whatever program you want.
Regarding the preview: Did you set a media player in the preferences?
sebasaque: What are the file permissions on the finished files? aMule uses the default permissions (i.e. the same as if you create a new file), so there shouldn't be any problems.
Where do you store these files? (i.e. on an external hdd)

Great, thanks. Works! Except to use this method to preview a video file keeps crashing VLC media player.
Regarding the preview: Did you set a media player in the preferences?
Yes I did. I set it to use VLC media player as video player. I has never worked. No error message, no VLC starting, just absolutely no reaction from anything at all, whenever I click "preview file".
Thanks
