vlc-bittorrent

VLC plugin that streams video directly from torrent files and magnet links.

Pluginfree

vlc-bittorrent is a plugin for the VLC media player that lets users open a .torrent file or magnet link directly in VLC to stream the media it contains, without needing a separate BitTorrent client. It works as a regular BitTorrent client in the background, continuing to seed while playback is active, and is packaged for Debian, Ubuntu, and Fedora. It's aimed at VLC users who want to stream torrent content directly rather than download first.
