Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?

Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/asapach/peerflix-server/issues/164
When a seed file contains 2 mp4 files, I only download one. When one of the downloads is completed, there is no obvious indication that one of them has been downloaded.
@asapach commented on GitHub (Jan 10, 2019):
Yeah, the only indication is that the checkbox next to the file becomes unchecked. It's the consequence of using torrent-stream under the hood, because it doesn't provide any kind of api for this. I was thinking that instead of unchecking the checkbox I could try to make it checked and disabled, like this:
Thoughts?

I think , don't add links without downloading and add
.
Videos.mp4tag, only have links to files when the file is downloaded and addAnd add a single file delete button, when I click the wrong download, I can delete this file.
And add the automatic transcoding function after the download is completed, and convert the video file format to mp4.
ps: like this
@asapach commented on GitHub (Jan 10, 2019):
Sorry, but I disagree:
The whole point of streaming torrents is that you don't need to download the whole file in order to access it. You can randomly seek inside the file that is partially downloaded.
Unfortunately files cannot be deleted once they are downloaded. You can only delete the entire torrent. That's how torrent clients are supposed to work, because they need to be able to seed the downloaded chunks.
I've tried that a couple of years ago and it didn't work very reliably for real-time streaming, so I just gave up. I'm not planning to add any special handling for video files. I recommend using VLC to play the video files as network streams.

@asapach can't we replace the tick mark with This type of downloading GIF ?
and on downloading completion gif changes to this type of logo?
@asapach commented on GitHub (Jan 16, 2020):
@nk932714, the checkbox is meant to convey that the file is currently being downloaded (see here): if it's checked then somebody is interested in it (you can either check it manually, or it will activate automatically when streaming), otherwise it's idle. Replacing it with a gif won't make any functional difference and will only annoy people who hate animated gifs.
I'll think about what can be done better when the download completes.
