[SOLVED] P2P Client : transmission for SamyGO

[erdem_ua]

I think time comes for torrent client.
I inspect some torrent clients and decided "transmission" because it written with C language that means CPU usage will be small.
And it already using at some embedded systems, can run as daemon supports both Web and CLI interfaces...

Tool requires OpenSSL libraries too.
Who wanted to port this tool?

http://www.transmissionbt.com/

And debian already has this tool
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/transmission-daemon
but I prefer fresh compilation for our environment and cpu.

any progress?
would like to see torrent client on LE40C650.

Nope but it's not an hard job. if you are trying to plant daemon only.

i want to put *.torrent from PC to TV torent client by FTP.
And watch downloaded by torrent movies on TV from USB HDD.

[erdem_ua]

Possible but while you are watching from TV's USB HDD,
TV's CPU usage will peak, specially for HD movie streams. That leads slow remote response.
I don't know if it's good idea to have it but it will work... Also you could use some GUI at your PC to connect that daemon too.

I think it is much better to have NAS with torrent client on it and watch movies over NFS than torrent on TV. SamsungTV has not so much horsepower as we think

I think I aggree with juzis28...
A NAS with built in torrent client would do the job and continue downloading/seeding while we switch the TV Off

: D This is my current situation! Headless PIII running amule-daemon, transmission-daemon, samba-server, webmin, clamav, transmission-daemon. It would be nice to have something like TRANSGUI code.google.com/p/transmisson-remote-gui/ or amulegui or WEBMIN to check the server from the tv...

Quite old and forgotten topic, but got some recent updates. I still think the bt client on the TV isn't verry effective way to fetch files as one on the NAS, but for those who don't have any other solution this is it:
