I am confused. Would you happen to mean if this is possible by means of configuring Transmission, or are you referring to modifying the application in order to include this feature?

the application of linux has that function but do not see how here, it would be something very positive to deploy to the app

Hi,

This script will auto watch a certain folder and add any .torrent file to transmission:

https://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki/Scripts/Watchdog

You have to add the script to cron (crontab -e) to make it run every x amount of time (mine runs every 5 minutes) also you have to modify the path of transmission on the script.

Just a note about luifsmoreira’s sggestion  - adding jobs to cron on the EX2 isn’t easy. You can add them, but they’ll magically disappear after a few hours. I am not sure if luifsmoreira knows that or not.

The only way you can keep your job on cron is by adding a different cron job into the firmware code (which obviously means you’ll have to compile your own custom firmware) - this cron job’s primary task will be to check at desired intervals whether your custom job is on cron list - if not you need to reload your custom cron list (which you need to create at boot time).

Hi, 

you can check here a solution to the cron issue, without compiling the firmware:
