This guide assumes you have already installed SABnzb or Transmission following my guides

To Do:
Still need to get the headphones init.d script working 100%
It throws some errors on start and stop but it’s working
Install python2.7
ipkg install python27
Change dir
cd /opt/share/
Download HeadPhones
wget http://github.com/rembo10/headphones/tarball/master
Rename
mv master headphones.tar.gz
Extract
tar -xzvf headphones.tar.gz
Remove download
rm -f headphones.tar.gz
Rename directory
mv rembo10* headphones
Start HeadPhones
/opt/bin/python2.7 /opt/share/headphones/Headphones.py
A menu will come up… Select update then hit q to quit
Then hit control and c to get back to command line
Create a startup script
nano /etc/init.d/headphones
Paste
#!/bin/sh
#
## Don't edit this file
## Edit user configuation in /etc/default/headphones to change
##
## Make sure init script is executable
## sudo chmod +x /opt/headphones/init.ubuntu
##
## Install the init script
## sudo ln -s /opt/headphones/init.ubuntu /etc/init.d/headphones
##
## Create the headphones daemon user:
## sudo adduser --system --no-create-home headphones
##
## Make sure /opt/headphones is owned by the headphones user
## sudo chown headphones:nogroup -R /opt/headphones
##
## Touch the default file to stop the warning message when starting
## sudo touch /etc/default/headphones
##
## To start Headphones automatically
## sudo update-rc.d headphones defaults
##
## To start/stop/restart Headphones
## sudo service headphones start
## sudo service headphones stop
## sudo service headphones restart
##
## HP_USER= #$RUN_AS, username to run headphones under, the default is headphones
## HP_HOME= #$APP_PATH, the location of Headphones.py, the default is /opt/headphones
## HP_DATA= #$DATA_DIR, the location of headphones.db, cache, logs, the default is /opt/headphones
## HP_PIDFILE= #$PID_FILE, the location of headphones.pid, the default is /var/run/headphones/headphones.pid
## PYTHON_BIN= #$DAEMON, the location of the python binary, the default is /usr/bin/python
## HP_OPTS= #$EXTRA_DAEMON_OPTS, extra cli option for headphones, i.e. " --config=/home/headphones/config.ini"
## SSD_OPTS= #$EXTRA_SSD_OPTS, extra start-stop-daemon option like " --group=users"
## HP_PORT= #$PORT_OPTS, hardcoded port for the webserver, overrides value in config.ini
##
## EXAMPLE if want to run as different user
## add HP_USER=username to /etc/default/headphones
## otherwise default headphones is used

This will save the edited file
Now let’s set HeadPhones to start on a MBL reboot
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/headphones
update-rc.d headphones defaults
Now start the server
/etc/init.d/headphones start
Now open a web browser and login to your mbl name or ip:8181
Setup and enjoy!
Again I don’t use HeadPhones but there were some requests so I put this guide together
Please feel free to share any setup information you may have for incorporating this with SABnzb or Transmission
