Have set up Clutch to download bittorrents. However, the download speeds are very much slower than if I use utorrent.

Any suggestions on how to speed up Clutch?

Dear Pp,

Anyone knows how to boost my torrent speed for dns-323?

I am currently using DIR 300 and DNS 323, and my torrent speed for dns-323 is less than 20kb/s.....:(

Wat are the settings I should change to boost the speed?

Are you using the built-in bittorrent client or Clutch?

My transmission on 3mbps plan. Bittorrent depends on peers. DNS-323 is not a core 2 duo machine with 3GB of ram so don't expect it to pick up speed just a few seconds after loading the torrent.

there is no warranty card.

you have to maintain your receipt in order to claim your warranty.. else they will trace ur warranty base on your serial number in which the warranty might end a few months earlier

Just started using the NAS for BT after so long. Created a script to automatically stop and move completed torrents to another directory. I placed this in my crontab and it has been working alright for the last 2 days that it was running.

Code:
#!/ffp/bin/sh

# Binary locations
TRANSMISSION_REMOTE=/ffp/bin/transmission-remote
AWK=/ffp/bin/awk
SEQ=/ffp/bin/seq
TEE=/ffp/bin/tee

# Path locations
DOWNLOAD_DIRECTORY=/mnt/HD_a2/Downloads/_Transmission_/
COMPLETED_DIRECTORY=${DOWNLOAD_DIRECTORY}../
LOGFILE=/mnt/HD_a2/Downloads/transmission.log

COMPLETED_COUNT=`$TRANSMISSION_REMOTE -l | grep "100%" -c`
if [ $COMPLETED_COUNT -lt 1 ]
then
    echo "Nothing to do!"
else
    for i in `$SEQ 1 $COMPLETED_COUNT`; do
        TORRENT_ID=`$TRANSMISSION_REMOTE -l | grep "100%" | $AWK '{if (FNR == v1) print $1;}' v1=$i`
        TORRENT_NAME=`$TRANSMISSION_REMOTE -l | grep "100%" | $AWK '{if (FNR == v1) print substr ($0, 59);}' v1=$i`
        echo "[`date +%Y-%m-%d\ %H:%M:%S`] Completed [$TORRENT_ID] $TORRENT_NAME" | $TEE -a $LOGFILE
        $TRANSMISSION_REMOTE -t $TORRENT_ID -S -r 2>> $LOGFILE
        #sleep 5
        mv "$DOWNLOAD_DIRECTORY$TORRENT_NAME" "$COMPLETED_DIRECTORY" 2>> $LOGFILE
        if [ -e "$COMPLETED_DIRECTORY$TORRENT_NAME" ]
        then
            echo "[`date +%Y-%m-%d\ %H:%M:%S`] Torrent moved to \"$COMPLETED_DIRECTORY$TORRENT_NAME\"" | $TEE -a $LOGFILE
        else
            echo "[`date +%Y-%m-%d\ %H:%M:%S`] Error occurred while moving torrent \"$DOWNLOAD_DIRECTORY$TORRENT_NAME\" to \"$COMPLETED_DIRECTORY\"" | $TEE -a $LOGFILE
        fi
    done
fi

The example only prints the list of completed torrents. It does not stop and move completed torrents. Sure it's not difficult to do that but running through the PHP interpretor engine and then all that the code would be fairly longer. The gripe the author had was the issue of parsing the output of transmission-remote and multiple calls to it which I do not see as an issue.

AJAX/JSON would be more suited for remote queries rather than localhost. Maybe I'll use that on my Mac to query for status and then output to growl. Now I'm just wondering if there're no downloads would it wake up my sleeping NAS unnecessarily?

Oh no! I think I made a big mistake

I was in a updating mood today and updated my DNS-323 from 1.03 to 1.05. Now files can't be opened or copied. Some files are ok while others seem unusable. I see everything when I access it.

What did I do wrong?

How can I recover my files?

Thanks for the help.

over the past few days i had managed to painstakingly install mediatomb on my DNS-323. It was a slow process as i have previously zero knowledge with linux a few months before.

when i turn on my nmt, which is an elektron ehp-606, i can now see files on the dns-323 including mkv and flac files but i can't play them. when i press play this comes out: "Request cannot be processed. Press return key to return to the previous screen"

i'm stumped right now as i don't know where to fix, is it a problem of mediatomb?

avi and mp3 plays fine, it's just flac and mkv that can't get played.

thanks in advance for any help!

went sls for a walk today, most of the shops selling at 229, bizgram cheapest at 220 but for the older FW version. papers show 235.

the FW is the firmware ?
Does not matter right still can upgrade ourselves unless it is selling an older hardware revision ?
