Transmission and ipad - starous - 29th Sep, 2013 03:20 AM

Hi guys, I'm using my iPad to access xbian on my raspi. I would like to have the ability to add torrents to transmission directly from my iPad. The problem, as you may or may not know, is that it is not possible to download torrent file to the iPad as well as it is not possible to add add-ons to Chrome.
I have also tried to wget torrent files through sash, but it not always possible.
Does any one of you have a similar experience? Do you have an idea how to ease my life?
Thanks

Just paste in the link or magnet and it works.

It doesn't work always. For example, when I download the torrent file from a forum, where I need login and password, the copy paste doesn't work.

Works fine on mine ? Use it for numerous private sites.

And if it is not possible, do you have any idea how to bypass this limitation?

that could mean that the torrent files itself are stored on non-secured storage, but index to it, engine etc (which makes the value out of the .torrent files) is secured. so the owners considered such combination and need.

@brantje

The OP is using iOS so Transdroid isn't going to help.

@starous

What is the issue with adding torrents through Transmission's webui?

@f1vefour

Sorry guys. Didn't notice your reply.

@brantje
This app seems very cool, but apple won't allow any similar app in its AppStore :-(

@f1vefour
As I mentioned before I want to do everything from my iPad, but when I copy URL of some torrents and paste it into transmission's webui it don't work, because in some cases I need to log into the source website to see the torrents. So I need to find a way to download the torrent file and upload it through transmission's webui just by using my iPad and ssh client.
