TransmissionBT 2.84
Transmission 2.84
- Description:
Transmission is a cross-platform BitTorrent client that is Open Source, easy to use, lean and powerful.
- Requirements: RAIDiator 5.3.5 or newer
- Platform: ARM (Duo v2, NV+ v2)
- Current Version: TransmissionBT 2.84
- Changes in this release:
- Transmission 2.84
- Note:
The routine on the ReadyNAS responsible for the installation of an add-on seems to sometimes run into a timeout while the actual installation of the add-on is still running. It will then report that the installation of the add-on has failed. If you encounter this situation, please give the ReadyNAS a couple of minutes to finish the installation of the add-on and check on either the dashboard or the page for installed add-ons, whether the icon for the new add-on shows up or not. If it does, check the functionality of the add-on before reporting a problem.
- Details/Installation:
- To install the add-on, click on the "Configure" button on the dashboard of the ReadyNAS web interface
- Next, click on the "Add-ons" button in the menu bar:
- You are now on the "Availabe" section of the add-ons pane. To install a new add-on, click the "Add Add-on" button hidden to the very right of the menu bar:
- This opens a popup window. Click the "Browse" button and select the add-on file. When done, click the "Upload" button to send the file to the ReadyNAS for verification.
- Once the add-on was verified successfully another popup window will open where you click the "Install" button. After a short while the installation process will finish, ending in a "Successfully installed add-on" message. Now you can go to the Dashboard or to the "Installed" add-ons page where the Transmission icon should be visible.
- By clicking on the link below the icon you will get to the Transmission add-on's preference pane:
- You can change the port Transmission's web interface listens on. Please note that due to the way Transmissions works a change in the listening port will always trigger a restart of the Transmission daemon, which interrupts any currently running transfers.
- To access Transmission's web interface just click on the link "Access Transmission's web interface" above the two settings. You will be prompted for a username and a password. The default credentials after installation are admin / password. Please make sure to change those!
- To install the add-on, click on the "Configure" button on the dashboard of the ReadyNAS web interface
