Does anyone know of a program to check if all data is available in a FLAC? I'll try explain ...

If I download a 15 track FLAC album from Vuze, it list all 15 tracks and the full data ie 400MB in File Explorer, despite the actual Vuze bar being at 70% currently. In other words 30% isn't downloaded as yet even though it reflects it has.

Is it possible to see which 30% or even that it isn't complete ?

http://www.qbittorrent.org/ add the torrent file > point location to file already downloaded and then let it check the file to see if all data is downloaded.
 
The 400mb report is because the client has provisioned the space needed to complete the download. So even at 1% it would show 400mb on disk.

I know utorrent you get a file view and it shows you which parts are missing from which files. Generally with multi file downloads the 70% will be spread evenly across the files, so no single file will be complete. You can somewhat control that behaviour by setting priorities on the individual files.
 
Surely Vuze shows you per file completion itself? Where toy set the priority?

I know utorrent and Deluge as well as Transmission does.

Vuze screwed up half way and I had to reinstall. Now I have no list within Vuze but a ton of files provisioned - with no idea where each is or which have finished

Certain torrent programs allow you to add half finished files if they dont use flag id's to track the files. In a newly installed torrent program, add the original .torrent and run it for the files to be provisioned, stop and close the torrent program, copy and replace the new files with the previous half finished files, open torrent program and do a recheck.

Should be able to add the torrent again and do a Recheck. But yeah utorrent, deluge or transmission would be the way to go.
