Right now I'm using transmission on my mac computer to download (legal!) videos.
Transmission watch a folder for new torrent files and starts them automatically.
That folder is under my dropbox so I can put a new torrent to download from remote, let say when I'm in the office or during holydays.
I'm planning to buy a new RPi to run transmission and acting as a nas for my current RPi running XBMC and I'd like to have the same kind of dropbox (or dropbox like) automation.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance.

There is no official arm version of dropbox, but there are several dev'ers at the rpi forum that are writing scripts to use dropbox on the rpi.
Some examples:

• http://mitchtech.net/dropbox-on-raspberry-pi-via-sshfs/
• https://github.com/andreafabrizi/Dropbox-Uploader
• https://github.com/i42n/python-dropbox-backup
• https://github.com/matzegebbe/recursive-dropbox-uploader
  

Thanks.
I just don't get how to synchronize a folder like my dropbox on the mac does, using for example the dropbox uploadr from andrea fabrizi...
Some help appreciated.
