What happened to Transmission after 6.4.2 update?
Hey guys, have anyone experienced this that after the Firmware upgrade the Transmission app just fails to function properly? It is responding, I can add/remove torrent files there, but the appli...

Hi all,
thanks for the replies, it turns out I fixed it with the simplest trick in the book --- re-install of the app. Turns out that re-config of the settings.json helped.
Now as for the update, here's what I've done:
- trashed my current Transmission app.
- I've checked here: transmission_2.90-1_armel.deb and downloaded the newest 2.9 version
- Installed it on the NAS. There's a catch, once you upload the app and the notification center tells you that transmission is installed, it isn't listed in the app dashboard.
- I uploaded the transmissionr6_3.00.8_all.deb
- In the Transmission site clicking Settings > About shows 2.9
Maybe you would wonder why you need two different install files for one app, I was wondering too.
Anyway, it works, and the app is updated. Everybody's happy.
Cheers

when you install an app on the nas it's a .deb file , this deb file can't call apt-get to install another deb package so the package for transmission is cut in too
One package for the interface on the nas
One package for transmission it-self
and only th e transmission package change each time transmission change,
To have only one package I need to submit trnasmission binary package to Netgear, each time I do a change and it takes a long time so I decide to no more submit packages to Netgear and rather provide packages on the community dropbox I create.

Hi Super!
Works superb, thank you so much for all your work.
I have a question - would it be possible to create some kind of a simple web-gui for automatic to manage the feeds and filters? It's such a pain to edit everything in text.
Thank you in advance!
