When Pulsar streams a torrent, sometimes it tries to decode parts of the file that haven't been downloaded yet and it results in blocky artifacts or playback stops.
By disabling Kodi's cache (by setting buffermode to 3), the problem is resolved.
Perhaps, Kodi's caching system loads the streamed file ahead, before it has been actually been downloaded by Pulsar?
By default, Kodi's cache is enabled: http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Modify_the_video_cache
