New Transmission add-on thread

the built in webgui is very limited. it's more of a torrent monitor than an admin panel, hence the use of the transmission remote.

i dont think there's anything special about the dotnet version of transmission remote, just it has the 'add torrent with options' option, which allows you to specify another file location then the default

i've found you still need to run through the .json config file to configure watch folders, passwords, etc. limits can be set via webgui or RPC.

Please excuse my dumb questions, but I can't seem to find the info' that I need in this forum or via Scroogle?

I've been using a Duo for some months, with the Transmission add-on. Today I pulled out the 1TB drive & installed a 1.5TB HDD & converted to Flex-RAID, RAID-0 mode. I then upgraded the firmware to 4.1.7 beta as advised in an effort to kill the can't find 2nd drive bug, for when I reinstall the 1TB drive later when I need the extra storage space.

Anyway, I can't for the life of me remember how to find/install the Transmission add-on?

I have a copy of Transmission_1.92Light.bin, which is now superseded from what I've read in this thread. I don't know how to install that, let alone find the later version.

So if someone would be so kind as to point me in the right direction I will be forever in their debt?

Thanks. :)

Install via System > Update > Local in Frontview. Here's the Transmission add-on page for Sparc ReadyNas e.g. the Duo: http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=24271.

Thanks mdgm.

Transmission 1.93 Light, is installed & looks as it should.

Both my eyesight & my intelligence are diminishing with age...

Thankfully my sense of humour is still in good shape, & if nothing else I can allways find a reason to laugh at myself. :D

Not an advanced user. Sorry if this has been asked but can't see an answer I understand.

Using a duo and windows is it possible to set transmission and share permissions such that torrents, downloads and completed files are kept in a user share with access only for that user. When trying to do this I get access not allowed errors in transmission.

If it is possible can you point me in the direction of somewhere that explains how to do it. If not possible with transmission is there an alternative that does?

Thanks

what is the readyNAS based on in terms of transmission OS - GTK+?
im just wondering about what changelog sections i should be looking at/disregarding for readynas use...

i cant see it in the changelog for 2.00b2, and it's been like it for a while; any thoughts as to what's causing transmission to recheck partially completed torrents on every start of the transmission process (ie NAS reboot)?

Is 2.00b2 out? The link I found (earlier in this thread) is for 2.00b1.

2.00b02 is out , now you will find all the link in the official community addons forum

useful tip: 'subscribe to thread' for the update alerts :)
i've done it for all my actively used addons.

I'm still running 1.92 and have added "trash-original-torrent-files": true, to my settings.json file but the .torrent files aren't getting deleted from my Source Folder when downloading completes. I have watch-dir enabled.

Any ideas?
