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?

Another good option is to use something like stremio in order to watch it immediately (but be sure also to add the torrent to your main seeding machine).
