What version of WebTorrent?

What operating system and Node.js version?

What browser and version? (if using WebTorrent in the browser)

What did you expect to happen?

I would like to ask how this webtor.io is working however webtorrent only support webrtc torrents in browser but this can stream non-webrtc torrents as well.

I checked what they have under the front, and I think that they have 'service' in the middle that DL, transcode and then stream over HLS.

They did really good job and I would like to know some details too.

@adamwoo2444 As I saw, they hit the server that start to download the file, and start seeding over WebRTC so it's playable in browser.
