Take a look at the preferences->Directories->Temporary Directory. There's the path to your folder with the incomplete files.

In the transferlist simply rightclick the file and choose FileProperties (or similar) there's the PartFile's name.

Try to open the part-files with the VLC-Mediaplayer (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html) works for me with Win2k on my Notebook. (Dualboot with Ubuntu)
If you wanna attempt to play with quicktime/winmedia try to open it in the program instead of opening in your explorer-thingy (dunno how it's called on Mac)

Sei mir nicht böse, dass ich Englisch schreibe, aber hier im englischen Teil wird Deutsch wahrscheinlich nicht so gerne gesehen.

JokeyJ, to preview partially downloaded videos, set your preview application to something like this:

   /usr/bin/open -a "/Applications/MplayerOSXB8r4/MPlayer OS X 2.app"

or

   /usr/bin/open -a "/Applications/VLC.app"

Set the path to whatever app you want to use.  The quotes are mostly for the case where the path to the app has spaces in it, but can't hurt to use for all paths.

The /usr/bin/open command is one that Apple provides with Mac OS X to give functionality to the command line similar to double-clicking in the Finder.  With the "-a" switch, it's more like dragging a file onto an application icon -- it tells that specific application to open the file.

You can get MPlayerOSX here (http://mplayerosx.sourceforge.net/).
