How to play video without downloading all .rar parts

We generally download a lot of videos/movies online and usually these large videos cant be stored as a single file but are broken into several parts using Winrar. In order to watch a video that is stored in several .rar parts, you need to download all the parts and uncompress them using the winrar software. This might be irritating in cases where the .rar parts are large or there are many parts to download before you get to watch the video. And Finally, if this was not the video you were looking for, you get all the more pissed off for wasting your time.

Follow these simple steps to see a sample video of every .rar part you download, there by not wasting time downloading the wrong movie/video.
1. Download the first .rar part of the video.
2. Open Winrar software and goto the options page and select the option “Keep Broken files”.
3. Now extract the file normally.
4. Click on Cancel when it asks for the remaining .rar parts to unzip.
5. Download any of these media players:

a. http://www.crystalplayer.com/ -  Crystal Player (you can download free version) (or)
b. http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ -  VLC player   (recomended)

6.You can play these broken files in these media players.
