“What are the best torrent players to play torrent movies 2020? I have downloaded some torrent movies but my player seems to be out of work. Please recommend me a torrent movie player. Thanks in advance.”

You basically need two things to download with torrents – a torrent client and a torrent file. You might have come across the word – BitTorrent. BitTorrent is a method (or protocol) of downloading files using the torrent file sharing system. Software which use the BitTorrent protocol are called BitTorrent clients. But first you need to search for a torrent file to download. The torrent file is not the entire file. It is a small file that contains the data that points to the actual file and the people who are sharing it. It is like a master map which is used by the BitTorrent client to assemble all the different pieces of the file together. To get the torrent file for the particular download, you have to take the help of specialized websites that host torrent files.

It is known that a torrent file contains the URLs of many trackers, an integral metadata about all of the media files to be downloaded and the additional metadata defined in extensions to the BitTorrent specification as well. In other words, a torrent file is just a container of data which enables BitTorrent to find the target and complete the download. However, it does not contain media content at all. Therefore, when we’re talking about “play torrent files”, we actually mean to play the downloaded media file(s), the extensions of which are usually in the AVI, MKV or MP4 format.
