Please move my topic to How-To!
Greetings!
Today I want show you how to setup Transmission on OSMC for downloading torrents to NAS. For example, router has DD-WRT firmware and we has a hard drive with multiple partitions in NTFS.
First, we must turn on USB support in DD-WRT settings and change Disk Mount Point to /mnt:
Press Save. Then go to Terminal and enter to the router via Telnet (Telnet is turned on by default):
telnet 192.168.1.1
Install ipkg and ntfs-3g for NTFS support (DD-WRT kernel 2.6 strongly required):
ipkg-opt install ntfs-3g
wget ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/others/eko/Public/modules/2.6.24.111/fuse.ko -O /opt/fuse.ko
chmod +x /opt/fuse.ko
insmod /opt/fuse.ko
Next we must create directory for mounting hard drive partition. In DD-WRT go to Services - USB and search your hard disk partition for torrents. For example, my partition is Partition 4 (dev/sda4):
In Terminal via DD-WRT Telnet:
mkdir /mnt/diskmedia
Next mount:
ntfs-3g /dev/sda4 /mnt/diskmedia
In DD-WRT settings go to Services - NAS. Turn on Samba. For example, my Server string is HOST and Workgroup is WORKGROUP. For you this values you can find in your network settings. Next add path and user with your password for NAS access. You can allow it for public if you want. Press Save, then Apply.
Next SSH to OSMC and install Transmission (or via Appstore from OSMC, as you like):
sudo apt-get install transmission-daemon
Stop service:
sudo systemctl stop transmission
In config file configure the downloads directory, username and password to web access of Transmission:
sudo nano /home/osmc/.config/transmission-daemon/settings.json
Downloads and incomplete directories is /mnt/diskmedia. After configuring press CTRL X, Y, ENTER.
Next in SSH OSMC:
mkdir /mnt/diskmedia
Next:
sudo nano /etc/fstab
Add this line, then press CTRL X, Y, ENTER:
//192.168.1.1/MEDIA/Torrents /mnt/diskmedia cifs x-systemd.automount,noauto,rw,iocharset=utf8,username=my_username_from_NAS,password=my_password_from_NAS,uid=osmc,gid=osmc,file_mode=0770,dir_mode=0770 0 0
Torrents - is my folder for torrents.
Reboot your router and OSMC and test
