Hi Guys,
I follow instruction from user NFODIZ
http://community.wd.com/t5/My-Book-Live/GUIDE-Install-Transmission-2-77/m-p/558638/highlight/true#M20788
Problem is that I’m not able to use MAGNET links, I got an error:
Magnetized transfer - retrieving metadata (50%)
It’s brand new My Book Live with latest firmware with fresh installation of transmission provided by NFODIZ.
I done all step by step from manual, skipping only(I do not need it)
For those wishing to have access to the actual Torrent files easily from the DataVolume
Create a folder called torrents in your Public folder
SSH in and move any Torrents you currently have in /root/.config/transmission-daemon/torrents to your computer
SSH in and issue
rmdir /root/.config/transmission-daemon/torrentsln -s /DataVolume/shares/Public/torrents /root/.config/transmission-daemon/torrents
can you do regular torrent files? If yes, how are you adding the magnet? if from comand line try:
transmission-remote -a “path-to-long-magnet-url”
Make sure you use the ".
Also try the GUI

Hi,
No problem with regular Torrent files. I checked with transmission-remote, but same problem as before, magnetizing…

I have the same problem. When I add magnet link, it shows “magnetized transfer - retrieving metadata”
and won’t progress any further. no problems with adding .torrent.
Hopefully someone knows how to fix this issue?
Meanwhile, I use magnet2torrent conversion site to convert magnet links into .torrent files.
