I have no knowledge about implementation… _; so… Maybe ? I was more so refering to the nature of data being transmitted over the internet. Because it has to be somewhat error proof, if you are only missing a fraction of the data, i expected that there would be a way to complete the missing message ?

You’re right but as far as I’m aware, that must be baked in beforehand with parity files/blocks.
I’m only aware of a few things that do this, .NZB files used in Usenet downloads being the main thing (and of course RAID arrays).
Bound to be more though, anyone?
