A heads up, I just released transmission-remote-dotnet 3.9rc1 which has a lot of fixes and sexy icons. If you're a user, please try it out and report any issues on the google code site. :)
The screenshots on the project site have been updated.

Hi there, my intentions were to move finished download (once when finished and seeding) to new location. My programming skills are kind of limited :)) but I've tried (with googling and using part of other script) and I've prepared small script if anyone is interested. It took me 15 minutes and it is sufficient for me for now.
If you can advise on some improvements, deficiencies or other way to do it I am willing to learn something.
Works with Transmission 1.61
LIMITATIONS:
1) This will work only for one completed torrent with status Seeding for each execution. TODO: Repeat it until all torrents are moved-should be easy.
2) If torrent is seeded again from new location it might be a big problem :eek: TODO: Fix it, but I have no idea how to.
SETTINGS:
I've set up this to stop and move data to different location (I can start seeding manually or delete torrent afterward). This can be adjusted by options in the last line.
USE:
cron (repeat every x minutes/hour/daily)
Code:#!/bin/sh
# The absolute path to and including the transmission-remote binary
TRANSREMOTE=/opt/bin/transmission-remote
# The absolute path to where you want your completed torrents moved to
DESTDIR=/mnt/data/_downloads
# Find the first completed torrent
TORRENTID=`$TRANSREMOTE -l | sed -n '/Seeding/{p;q;}'|sed -e 's/...%.*//'|sed 's/^[ \t]*//;s/[ \t]*$//'`
if [ -z $TORRENTID ]; then
echo "Nothing is finished!"
exit
fi
# Stop the torrent and move data to the new location
$TRANSREMOTE -t $TORRENTID -S --move $DESTDIR
Update:
I've found easier way to do some stuff and solved all TODOs :) Any ideas or questions are welcomed.
Code:#!/bin/sh
# The absolute path to and including the transmission-remote binary
TRANSREMOTE=/opt/bin/transmission-remote
# The absolute path to where you want your completed torrents moved to
DESTDIR=/mnt/data/_downloads
# Find completed torrents
SEEDCOUNT=`$TRANSREMOTE -l | awk '/Idle|Seeding/'|wc -l`
TORRENTS=`$TRANSREMOTE -l | awk '/Idle|Seeding/'|awk '{print$1}'`
if [ $SEEDCOUNT = "0" ]; then
echo "Nothing is finished!"
exit
fi
for i in $TORRENTS
do
LOCATION=`$TRANSREMOTE -t $i -i|awk '/Location/'|sed -e 's/ Location: //'`
if [ $LOCATION = $DESTDIR ]; then
echo "Files are already there"
else
# Stop the torrent and move data to the new location
$TRANSREMOTE -t $i -S --move $DESTDIR
fi
done
I am able to connect to the web interface using http://192.168.1.1:8008/cgi-bin/transmission.cgi but trying to connect through Transmission Remote I get an error saying "The remote server returned an error: (501) Not Implemented.
My settings in Transmission Remote are:
Host: 192.168.1.1
Port: 8008
I just upgraded to transmission 1.71 and using transmission-remote-dotnet 3.9
Can anyone help? I have looked everywhere to resolve this problem and dying to use Transmission Remote ratehr than the web interface.

I just upgraded to transmission 1.72 but I still can't connect using transmission-remote-dotnet 3.9.
Avberk can u help me with this problem?
If you open a new thread i'll try to help you.Quote:

I extended your script a bit. Also using some stuff from other sources, particularly the transmissionbt-wiki.
It now does the following:
-Remove torrents that are finished and done seeding (or just sit around idle).
-Move completed torrents to download dir.
-Add new torrents from torrent-folder, given there is space left in the dl queue.
Did I forget anything?? Without the need to seed, this would be simpler, but we wanna be got bt-citizens after all...
I'm still testing this. use at your own risk.Code:#!/bin/sh

ADD="$(find $TORRENTDIR -name '*'.torrent | head -n1)"

The port on transmission remote should be 9091 NOT 8008.Quote:

Oh, and one more thing I haven't figured out in Transmission: How can I set upload rate for a single file? In the web gui there's only option for global settings. And transmission-remote doesn't seem to have any options for this either. I know the OS X version has this function.
(And yes I've asked the transmission forums too... no replies :) )
there is no such thing as sudo on the router:)Quote:

Hi guys,
I´ve tried both scrtipts, but no one works.
First probably doesn´t work, because transmission uses password. The longer script give me this error codes:

Just for your information:
- New transmission 1.80 is available with support for magnet links and trackerless torrents (see http://transmissionbt.com
- Unfortunately this version frequently crashes - in my case it survives from 5 minutes to 1 hour.
- My recomendation is to stay with older version until fixes are made
There are patches to rtorrent that add magnet links support.

Maybe somebody compile it for Oleg.
Hi! Im using olegs firmware and transmission, yesterday i used the web gui to download 2 torrent files. (one torrent is a 5G file, other is like 200 files per 200 MB) Everything was working fine, but later i tryed to check the progress but the web interface does not load. What can i do? I installed everything according to the tutorial in this forum. Im using a 1TB external HDD. Thank you for any help.
If you are using new transmissionbt version 1.80 -> probably it has crashed.
You should probably downgrade to 1.76 or 1.77 and wait for bugfixes.
:mad:
Additionally new versions (1.80 1.81 1.82) have speed problems: downloads are very slow :mad:
Thanx for advice, but how can i tell which version i am running? :-) And how can i downgrade?
Edit: Ok i connected to SSH and typed "reboot", after that i was able to access the gui, when i clicked the preferences, theres a small 1.80 at the bottom. :-)
Now i have to figure out how to downgrade... Oh and 1 more question, can i acces the gui from work? :-) thx!
Edit1: SSH & reboot does not work anymore, i am not able to run my gui...
Edit2: I found out that web gui doesnt work on google chrome... In IE8 is everything fine :-) But i still didnt figure out how to connect to the web gui from work...
Hi
Where can I download 1.76? Transmission 1.80 frequently crashes on my wl500gp:mad::mad:
1.80 working well on my v1 -
BTW - thanks to avberk for keeping trans maintained for my white angel
That is good choices 1.80,1.81,1.82 are buggy. Today Transmission just released 1.83Quote:

i have forwarded the ports (see setup below) using iptables and it is reported as open by port checker sites. i have disabled virtual server and firewall from the GUI but the only thing i can access online is just FTP (same results even when enabled)
btw, here's my post-firewall (using wengi's tutorial) and i'm not that familiar with linux except with what was indicated in his tutorial
thanks in advance for all your help.Quote:

Transmission 1.83 still crashes. Links to older transmission releases are available here: http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=17957
Thanks for 1.83 release.
However it still crashes in my case :(
I've downgraded to 1.76
I have same problem on 1.76 version, I guess it is temporary problem, just wait a while and try load GUI again, it will works ;-)
tels you versionCode:transmission-daemon -V
Hi,
I have a wl-500gp and transmission is installed according to Wengis tutorial.
When typing 'ipkg list_installed' i get the following information regarding transmission:
Previously there was a 'Remove data' button (see picture below), but now after upgrading the button is gone. All other buttons are available.Quote:
transmission - 1.80-1 - Lightweight BitTorrent client and daemon, with web interface bundled.
Does anyone knows how to get it back?
http://www.transmissionbt.com/images...utch-Large.jpg
I got 1.76 running and have no remove data button in the interface as well. But rightklicking on the torrent gives me the option of "trash data and remove from list".
Yes, they made transmission a bit more dummy proof.
Right clicking and trashing still works. :)
V 1.83 crasches every day, Iam going back to stable 1.76Quote:

i'm using ipv4 and no ipv6 but don't know how to change/mod settingsQuote:
pppd 2.4.5 started by admin, uid 0
Failed listening on '22': Error listening: Address already in use
premature exit: No listening ports available.
Whenever I am forced to restart the router (apply changes in settings), torrent check takes almost an hour (over 20GB downloading) Am I doing something wrong? Should it not save the download state in /tmp/hardisk/transmission/download/resume or this directory is for smoething else?
Is it any way to skip this torrent check or is it necessary?
The cpu in the router is able to process something like 3-4 MB/sQuote:

It's due to the slow cpu and the lack of enough RAM memory these things take long.
The checking is because of 2 things usually:
1. to see what "blocks" are downloaded yet
2. to be sure all the downloaded "blocks" are downloaded correctly
to stop it from checking it all the time you should pause it before restarting:)
btw, 20GB is an awful lot for routers like these
I had same problem in 1.83 version. So I downgrade back to stable v1.76 and checking is much faster, same as downloading ;-)
you are another person who advices me to downgrade. i thing wengi should put it in his tutorial. not to do ipkg upgrade whenever it is possible. it seems in this case newer isn't better.
btw which firmware are you using now? because i have many problem with my router crashing. i have even disconnected the harddisk now to check if it is the reason.
wpte -> so you think that slow samba transfer rate (I have 2mb/s both over WIFI and cable) within the local network is also limited by router processor?
in my case apart from what you say here, also ssh is not working and normal web interface 192.168.1.1 as well. it helped a little to upgrade router firmware to newest on (jan 24) and i have to try as well to downgrade transsmision to 1.76.
still my router crashes for example when i try to install a game (mounted in deamon tools) which iso is on my router-harddisk using samba share. i don't know is it overloaded or what? the transfer rate is really slow anyway (2mb/s) but i've read that is normal. why does it crash then?
