Transmission 2.82 for ARM – FREE

Hi Everyone,

this is my build of Transmission Bittorrent client for NETGEAR ReadyNAS Storage Systems based on ARM processor architecture (DUO v2, NV+ v2).

General notes:

• Release notes for Transmission you can read on Transmission developers site: https://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki/Changes

• This package was tested with versions 5.3.3, 5.3.4, 5.3.7 of the RAIDiator firmware. It may work with other versions, however I would recommend upgrading firmware to the latest version (5.3.7).

• Only transmission-daemon, client tools and Web interface are included in this package.

• After installing you should be able to access web interface from your browser by the following URL: http://[ip_address_of_your_NAS]:9091.

• Transmission network share will be created after installation. Normally you should not need it, it provides access to Transmission configuration (settings.json) and some other special files.

• By default downloaded files are saved to /Media/Torrents. You may later change it in Transmission configuration.

• Your NAS should be connected to the Internet when you are installing this package. Otherwise you could experience delays while installing the add-on and installation process may end with error due to timeout. This error can be ignored, as the package should be installed successfully.

• Before installing this version please remove any other builds of Transmission (those not made by me). But you can keep previous version of my build, newer version should upgrade it.

Download it from my website: http://www.sergeysurba.com/projects/transmission

Please try and test it, comments and suggestions are welcome. Discussion thread is here: http://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=68561

Happy ReadyNASing!

Sergey.
