Transmission

This is a client. I mean porting the server to android.

Hi,
There is a plan to port Transmission for android based devices like tablets or andro media players ? Many new devices have now powerful processors and storage that could easily run transmission

hmmm...it works for you ? I mean you actually tested that command ? It does not work in my case. I use the Fonera compiled daemon .

Hi
In 2.21 there is a new feature 'Add the ability to shutdown Transmission
sessions via RPC'
Ok..., what's this exactly? I thought that I could shutdown tr daemon remotely on rpc...but it's not, it just closes the remote session.
Somebody can confirm?
Thanks!

I'm using Transmission daemon 2.11 on Fonera2n device (linux embedded OpenWrt / BusyBox). The default setting in settings.json for preallocation is: "preallocation": 0, and I want to change that to "preallocation": 2, the reason is that downloads fragment heavily the drive.
Tried to edit settings ...

How can I find ext type ? A ssh command ?
Edit: tried "fdisk -l /dev/sda1" but it just shows "linux", not the type. Googleing does not helped...

1) He's on Mac. Mac doesn't use settings.json
2) 0 is preallocation = off (high chances of fragmentation), 1 = sparse (unsupported in HFS+ anyway), and 2 = full.

Wow! So that could explain why my file system (and transmission a little bit) is so sluggish ! I must try set to "2". Thanks !

Check the "preallocation": value in settings.json, I think 0 is not to allocate (allocate only when downloading the specific file) and 1 to allocate all space at the beginning.
My transmission does not allocate anything if not downloaded, I have the value set to 0.

Thanks Rolcol ! I found that file and the rest of the configuration that has to be saved for the upgrade. It worked fine, I had upgraded from 2.04 to 2.11 keeping the running torrents.

For anybody looking for a similar solution, here is how should be done ...

Thanks for replying. But I still can't find config/transmission neither simply transmission folder or file on my device. Can you give me an example of filename that i could find with command 'find -name filename' ? A filename that is mandatory for transmission, even if my device runs a low profile ...

Anybody some idea where is the .config folder that should be saved before the upgrade? Developer guys ?
This upgrade issue is annoying, specially when new versions are coming faster then I can recheck my TB of data

Thanks!

spanish_biker79: where is the .config folder on the fonera F2N file system ? It's not in /tmp/images/torrent , neither in /tmp/mounts/Disc-A1/FoneraApps.

nobody any ideeas? pls. dev guys at least say is possible or not.

Hi,

I'm using transmission daemon on a Fonera 2.0N device. The dafault daemon that came preinstalled with the device is 1.72. I have downloaded with 1.72 about 1TB of data, about 200 torrents and I'm seeding them.
Now I want to upgrade daemon to 1.90 but I found out that if I install and start the ...
