[200/300] CouchPotato V2

[jhmiller]

Finaly got around to getting this done for the 200/300 series ONLY(so far)

As CPV2 is still in Beta i wont be releasing on CSI just yet, but as i have been using it and it does function very well, i have decided to let those who want to use it pm me for a link to the install file. This would help me if user's find any problems with the install and RuudBurger with problems with the code running on the PCH's.

It can be run alongside CPv1 but i would suggest that you use just 1 version to keep cpu usage down.

Do you know if the newznab catagories corrected in V2 ? If so, I'd love to give it a test run !

[jhmiller]

I know a few things have been fixed re newznab, but what, i can't say as i dont use newznab myself.

The best option would be to try it and see if it works.

PM me if you want the link.

Is it a Csi install ? I'm not a big command line hero :/

[jhmiller]

Yes its a CSI install zip file, just the same as normal CSI but you install from file not from list.

Is it the same port as V1 or is it another command to get to the UI?
I can not get it running usin http://pch-c200:5000

[jhmiller]

Sorry the port has changed to 5050 so would need http://pch-c200:5050

Nope it's not working here, tried ip-of-the-popcorn:5050 also

Edit: Ah forgot to start it sorry

Ok my shares can not be used as a download directory. I.e. I use a ReadyNAS with Transmission, this is alright but the directory of the NAS is not available. Was working in V1.

[jhmiller]

I think that you use torrents and that you use CP on the PCH to get the torrents and then send the torrents to Transmission that is running on your nas, is that correct?

When you say "the directory of the NAS is not available" what directory do you mean, as i can see all directory's on my nas from CP.

The menu in CP: Downloaders, Chose Transmission and insert ip:port, Directory where the files will be downloaded - I can see everything as existing on my nmt share, internal HDD and my 2:nd HDD internal plus USB but chosing share just gives you the NMT share i.e. the internal HDD.
There are a complete directory from the root of the share but no networked shares like my NAS. The NAS is defined in the normal ui of the NMT so everything is OK but I can not see networked shares in CP.
I would be very glad, when it comes to torrents, if we could set up private trackers as an option.

You want to add a path in the Directory aettings for torrents but cant? If so stop CP via CSI and edit the conf file manualy.

The editing for daemon.sh and conf didn't work as you suggested but I guess that I can edit the conf file manually and insert the path for the share.

I was wondering what differs our systems when you say you could view all your networked shares?

Is there a way to insert a private tracker site as provider? If so, how?

Thanks for all help.

[jhmiller]

What path are you trying to input as i can view all NMT folders now. also as i have asked above what setting did you use in CPv1 that does not work with CPv2, i need this info as others may have the same issue and it would be better if i can fix it now before making a CSI version that will not function right.

At the moment there is no way to insert a private tracker site, CPv2 is still in alpha/beta so it may be comming, I do not use torrents myself so can't give much help with them but maybe ask RuudBurger if he is planning on adding it.

The path is /opt/sybhttpd/localhost.drives/NETWORK_SHARE/ready/Downloads and the ip is different from the PCH, so is the port used also but that is great as you can insert that yourself. In V1, I could chose the network share directly from the directory where you could see the share's names.
I also noticed that you have root access in the choice of directories which I think can be confusing as you just wanna see your HDD's, USB' and Shares.

The Share in the directory is now of course your PCH which is some what misleading.
Anything else you wanna now?
