I have sequential downloads enabled on my torrent client, I have a download speed that is fast enough that the ETA for the full download of the media is shorter than the duration of the media itself, and I can watch it in IINA or VLC, but, unfortunately Jellyfin doesn’t recognise any new media in my designated library folders until a decent amount of time AFTER the entire file is downloaded and has it’s correct extension.

Is there some way to watch as one downloads using Jellyfin?
