I am currently running Transmission on my Synology DS212 (two bay NAS) and I want to move to a bigger HD. However the DS212 is currently hosting 1108 active torrent files. Out of the 1108 active torrents Transmission only saved 466 torrents in the .added (user error). Is there a way to export all active torrent files or do I have to redownload them all from my source?
I have tried googling and searching multiple forums before asking so kinda hoping for a magical answer now.
Regards,
Exporting Torrent Files
Re: Exporting Torrent Files
on my ubuntu machine, it looks like all torrents are saved in ~/.config/transmission/torrents/
you should be able to get them from there.
as far as I understand it, the .added extension only happens when you try to add a torrent that already exists.

Thank you for your response.
However looking in my files and I couldn't find such map. Is it possible that the Transmission for a NAS places them somewhere different? I couldn't find said option in Transmission itself.

Re: Exporting Torrent Files
look for transmission/torrents in your file system, or pick a torrent name you know you have and look for that.
I'm not familiar with NAS systems so not sure if you need to use the command line (that's what I did on my ubuntu machine, I simply did "locate transmission") or if you have a graphical file manager you can search with.

Possibly, but it's not something that the Transmission devs have added but rather those who made the installation package for your NAS.Banjir wrote:Thank you for your response.

Depending on how you do the actual HDD swap (pysically speaking) then you might just need to use "set data location" so that Transmission just moves the actual data, no need to reload them or any such thing.
