New Transmission add-on thread
The previous thread was very long time to open a new one and prepare the 2.0 :)

I got version 2.60 working again. After installing v2.22 I disabled the add-on throughout Frontview and made the following updates to the settings.json file:
- set "download-dir" to a share/folder that exists on my NVX (I had removed the 'media' share, which didn't seem to impact earlier versions of the add-on)
- set "incomplete-dir" to a share/folder that exists on my NVX (again, the default involves the 'media' share)
- set "incomplete-dir-enabled" to false (not sure this is necessary but I'm ok with partials in the same directory as completed downloads)
- set "watch-dir" to a share/folder that exists on my NVX (same explanation as above)
- set "watch-dir-enabled" to 0 (I don't create torrents)
After making these changes I re-enabled the add-on to confirm it worked. I then disabled it, installed 2.60 and it worked (was actually enabled when I viewed the 'Installed add-ons' page in Frontview; didn't even need to enable it).
After going through this process, I noticed a few differences when I reviewed the settings.json file of the "working" add-on (don't know which, if any of these are significant):
- "rpc-port" set to 8181 for "working" add-on (was 9090 or some such for the "non-working" add-on)
- "rpc-username" set to 'admin' (was blank)
- "rpc-whitelist" set to * (was 127.0.0.1)
Maybe this will help others with similar issues...
