FAQ read before posting

---

Q: Error message "request cannot be processed" during setup
A: Stop Torrent in setup, restart NMT, unzip and upload again and retry. Also unzipping with another unzip program (like winrar) seems to solve this problem. Try the Community Software Installer.

Q: My download / upload speeds are slow or non existing
A: Make sure you have setup portforwarding correctly, check site http://portforward.com/ check if port is forwarded correctly here: http://www.utorrent.com/testport.php?port=51413 if it isn't forwarded correctly or still no download speeds please start a new topic and don't post it here because it is a network problem and not relevant to this topic.

Q: The NMT crashes after a while!!
A: For some; due to extra cpu load and heat your NMT may crash. Please try to install a fan. Try limiting the download speed or maximum number of connection.

Q: Version X had better speeds then Y
A: Please continue using version X, this thread will follow the most recent version of transmission. No repost of old versions.

Q: I changed settings in settings.json but the settings are lost
A: Make sure you have disabled transmission first, wait for a long period of time and then make the changes. Use the stop button in CSI to stop Transmission. Transmission saves it's current settings on close.

Q: I found a bug in transmission itself!
A: Please report that to the transmission developers here: http://trac.transmissionbt.com/report they hopefully will pick the bug up and fix it for us!

Q: Does transmission have feature X
A: Please refer to the transmission wiki http://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki a lot of answers there!

Q: How do I configure transmission to enable/disable feature X
A: Please refer to transmission wiki http://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki

Q: I want to automatically unrar the downloaded content / unpak.sh
A: The current releases of transmission made here don't support auto unpacking. More information here: http://trac.transmissionbt.com/ticket/1796

Q: I want to uninstall
A: Use the CSI to uninstall, the previous transmission will reappear.

Q: How do I enable ratio limit
A: Edit settings.json in the ".transmission" folder. Please make sure you have stopped transmission before editing the file and wait a couple of MINUTES before editing the file.

Add the following lines to enable ratio limit to 2.0

Restart CSI again. Most likely it wil appear.

Repost - Regarding Transmission and HDD spindown

I have an internal hdd and have installed transmission on it.

I have now changed the path of downloads to my USB thumbdrive as I like to just keep the USB drive working while keeping the HDD mostly spun down. However, I noticed that my HDD still won't spin down if torrents are downloading/seeeding from the USB thumbridve.

If I pause all torrent downloading/seeding, the hdd will spin down automatically and stay down.

Is Transmission actively writing/reading from the HDD ?

Would this problem be resolve if I installed Transmission onto my USB Thumbdrive ? If so, how do I do it ? Thanks

Installed 1.80b3 and tried adding a torrent using a magnet link (it supports that according to the rls notes). But nothing happens ... the torrent is created but it just says "Magnetized transfer...retrieving metadata (0%)" for the past hour. Anything else i need to do?

Yes, it permanently (every 2 minutes) writes statistics to a special subditectory situated in its directory.

I suppose, yes.

I installed Transmission 1.76 manually, without CSI. In the downloaded transmission-1.76-nmt.zip there is "appinit.cgi" installation script, which contains 'APPS_FOLDER="/share/Apps"' line. It looks like replacing "/share/Apps" with path to some directory on your USB drive will be enough.
But take into account: Transmission can work only from drive formatted to ext2(3)!

[/color]Ok, I updated to Transmission 1.83 Beta via CSI, everithing went fine.
Also updated to 1.31 transmission GUI.

I did not notice too much the change, except that in progres it say 1000% instead of 100% ant 703% instead of 70,3%. But no more changes.
Problem is transmission gui 1.31. ReinStalled 1.30 and it is fine

The reason of the update was to find if the upload get's to the top set in the transmission options as before, but it doesn't.
Maybe has something to do with my ISP or my PCH is getting old (almost 2 years, 100% time running). The fact is update changes in CSI, like start or stop an aplications is taking up to 30 seconds.
Found the problem. There is a torrent with 450 leechers and 1 seed, with 31 Gb. PCH CPU can't handle it, maybe is tooooo much. I founded that when it is verifying the file, upload goes as before.[color=#000000]

Hi,

Is there a scheduler in transmission 1.76 ?

Julien.

Is v1.80.4 the final 1.8?

(01-06-2010 12:30 PM)Angelkiller Wrote: [ -> ]Is v1.80.4 the final 1.8?

Nope. beta 4. I've added the text beta 4 to the application description. as soon as it will get final I'll change the topic title so the 'stable' users can upgrade to.

When activating Transmission on PCH-200 (and torrent in NMT applications) we have problems with downloading video from the MSP. On the screen it says "buffering" and after some time "could not play". When stopping the torrent and removing Transmission it all works again. Does anybody know how to solve this problem?

I would like to make torrents with transmission is that possible in some way?
or do i have to make it on a regular pc with other client first then import it to transmission??

Dear friends:

I have a HDX-1000 with Transmission 1.80 Beta 4 working right, but after the 1.76 installation when I update the program with CSI utility, the service don't work in my NMT. It only work by my Remote GUI client.

Any person can provide me the URL address of Transmission that you have to enter to get Transmission GUI on you NMT?

Please only if you have the last 1.80 version because I think that this was changed.

Very thanks

The 1.80 installation should automatically add a Webservice to access it, that's what it did on my C200 anymays...

Hi could you tell me what the url is for transmissions webservice ? it tells me requested cannot be processed when im trying to start it from webservice menu
