Torrent app

First experimental alpha version available here.
Get the python installer script.
For more info on MCH apps, see the official documentation.

  • package name: com.transmissionbt.wd

If you don’t know how to run a python script, use google or wait for the beta release.

  • The installer script may not work on windows, you might need to use a unix OS such as Ubuntu or OSX.
    You might need to retry a few times before it works…
  • You can’t set the download path to the network (samba) share due to restrictive permissions of the samba app… I requested WD devs to allow this in a future firmware version.
  • Changing with the download path is at your own risk. You may brick your box if you’re able to write outside of the transmissionbt app directory (but usually you won’t have write permissions). It’s safe to set it to the Family share.
  • SSL connections and seeding may not work yet…
  • You can’t download files larger than 4GB!
  • TODO: post processing script support
