Using / streaming torrents on iOS

[galliano]

Hi all,
Need advise.
My objective is quite simple. Download torrents & watch/stream to Smart TV. Thanks to the new JB, at least part 1 is easily done.

Downloaded iTransmission via Cydia.
1. How do you actually maintain the torrent download considering it stops once the iphone goes into "standby" mode?

Download Moliplayer
1. Has odd issues reading my srt files. It does not appear smtimes in Iphone player. And definitely does not appear when streaming to Smart TV.

Just wondering if you guys have any other suggestions.

plug the phone in and set it to not auto lock.

download manager will keep apps "alive" in the background.

Thanks guys.

Any recommendation on video players that can stream/airplay to smart tvs? The tv is DLNA compliant.

Using moliplayer but it's got issues w subtitles even when watching on phone.

Just to update:
Downloaded and upgraded ($5) for Infuse app. It streams movies with subtitles using Airplay (Apple TV). Works pretty good. The fact that it can download and use subtitles from Opensubtitles within the app is pretty handy too. And Infuse's interface is rather amazing too with the movie's metadata.

So much so for using apps to stream videos + subtitles to DLNA TVs ... I hit a bottleneck, gave up trying. Using Infuse & Airplay now as a combination.
