Transmission

It's the peers not wanting to connect. Some peers only download and never upload. Some peers won't connect to certain IP-ranges or certain clients.

... Now my old OpenWRT implementation left a directory on the shared USB drive (previously using transmission from openwrt) with the separate directory simply named /transmission and it is located on the new Pi shared drive at: /srv/dev-disk-by-id-usb-ST5000DM_000-xxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-7-0-0-part2/transm...

How can I sort torrents by "Active"? It doesn't implement yet or I missing something?
Thank you.

You can't because 'Active' does not exist. You can filter by Status 'Downloading' or 'Seeding'. You can even set the Status filter to 'All' and then sort by Status.

No! Transmission would no longer know where to find the files.

Warning! Shift is currently incompatible with Transmission 3.00 because of a weird and undocumented change in the response message of torrent-get. See RPC-spec The response of torrent-get echoes all the unknown fields of the request with value "0", which is still a valid value. Just ignore like bef...

Every torrent can have it's own download directory. There is just 1 default.

Nope. It can not. You have to expose the torrenthash for other clients to connect to. You do this by seeding. But what is the use-case here? Reduce load?

Nope. That "torrent name" folder is actually part of the torrent you're downloading. The are also torrents with just a single file that do not have a top-folder. That torrent name folder could be changed to a shared name. BUT if two or more torrents with a shared name also have equal named contents ...

That is probably never going to happen. But there are some alternatives like a black theme for Shift.

AFAIK, it's not implemented yet in the WEB-UI. The changes for labels are implemented in the communication protocol. I was going to implement the label functionality in Shift ASAP, but the communication protocol is broken in the 3.00 version. See Transmission 3.00 RPC broken!

According to the rpc-spec, Transmission 3.00 supports labels. This should work for your categorization needs. Or might work in the future if it is not yet implemented in the client of your choice.

First off, if I could post this issue on GitHub directly I would have. The extra verify device step now directly mails to my hotmail address which in turn now also requires an extra verification step. I have to give MicroSoft another e-mail or cellnumber to get in. All without opt-out and "for my se...

If you want to do this without massively rechecking all your torrents, you must save all the data within the transmission-daemon working directory. (Including resume files and torrent files with some hash in the filename.) On Debian based systems this would be /var/lib/transmission-daemon/info/ .

Although this has nothing to do with Transmission, see HDParm to start you off.

I use a "cache-size-mb" setting of 16 and AFAIK there is no optimum cache size. If you are downloading many torrents at a time a larger cache size might prevent some fragmentation of files, but THE thing concerning wear and tear of your drive is spin up/down so try setting your drives to a long a ti...
