First stop Transmission Daemon

You will need to download these dependencies for the script

ipkg install unrar

 Edit settings.json

nano /root/.config/transmission-daemon/settings.json

Replace these lines

"script-torrent-done-enabled": false, 
    "script-torrent-done-filename": "",

With these lines

"script-torrent-done-enabled": true,
    "script-torrent-done-filename": "/var/lib/scripts/torrentexpander.sh",

Hit control and o

Hit enter

Hit control and x

This will save your edited file

Create the scripts directory, download the script, and make it executable

mkdir /var/lib/scripts
cd /var/lib/scripts
wget http://torrentexpander.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/torrentexpander.sh
chmod 755 /var/lib/scripts/torrentexpander.sh

Now lets run the setup script

/var/lib/scripts/torrentexpander.sh

The only change you NEED to make is to:

destination_folder=no

Change it to

destination_folder=/DataVolume/shares/ whatever share and folder you want the files extracted to

Make sure the share and folder already exist on the NAS

Extracted ZIP and RAR archives will be extracted here in a folder named after the archive

Non-archive files will also be placed in this folder

Hit control and o

Hit enter

Hit control and x

This will save your edited file

DONE!
