    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
