unar (that's "unar", not "unrar") supports multi-part and version 3 rar archives. It's also proper FOSS so the licence is fine. In theory, it should work with a minimal edit to the nzbget-postprocess.* files.

However, after installing it on my pi, I get "unar: symbol lookup error: unar: undefined symbol: main".

I believe this means that it's linking to the wrong version of a library. A dist-upgrade wants to upgrade "libc-bin libc-dev-bin libc6 libc6-dev" and remove "xbian-update xbian-package-xbmc"; I read that as Raspbian having updated their version of libc6 and the xbian-* packages not having been updated to use it. I think that's related to the unar library version issues, but I don't know how easy it would be to fix that.

If I remember I've after upgrading to 1A5 I've removed xbian-download package and I've installed transmission from xbian-config.

did you forward your transmission port, i.e. does it say it is open? Else that can be the cause of transmission not seeding.

[kraleksandr]

Port forwarded, webUI says that it is open.

well i've seen more complaints on other os and platforms so i guess it's a transmission problem, maybe there's more info on their forum

Hi everyone,

I'm having some problems trying to get nzbget to download to a samba share, although transmission is working fine.
I have mounted the share by adding this to fstab:

Code:

//ServerIP/Share /home/xbian/ServerIP/Share cifs username=USERNAME,password=PASSWORD,_netdev,uid=xbian,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=07​77 0 0

But when I add an nzb I get the following errors:

Code:

ERROR: Could not create file /home/xbian/incomplete/1.out!
ERROR: Error reading diskstate for file /home/xbian/incomplete/queue
ERROR: Error reading file queue from disk

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

mhh ive got another question. i did set up the download directory to my external hdd and it seems to work so far but if i add the nzb file it at first sets the status of the download to queued and wont start downloading?

Problem: http://forum.xbian.org/thread-584-post-7243.html#pid7243
Maybe launch transmission after NTP sync?

Is there a option to download files not to "/dir_from_torrent/filename" but to "/dir_from_torrent/s02eXX"?

Of course there is, you can just set a custom name pattern in the post processing step in sickbeard. So use something like:

Code:

s%0Se%0E.%EN

[kraleksandr]

@Faaz0
No, u dont understand.
As ex. uTorrent can rename downloaded file and continue seeding this file like it has original name. Can transmission do sonething like this?

---

And I dont use sickbeard now.

[Faaz0]

transmission has no renaming capabilities in the current release, but i believe it is already integrated in the nightly builds so it should be possible soon.

-> target integration is v2.80, current release is v2.76

I have resolved my problem the hard way:

Uninstalled Transmission, removed /etc/init.d/transmission & /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon and then reinstalled transmission through xbian-config. It seems to autostart now.

I have one more question tho, where is transmission's config file? I can't find it.

It is hidden because if you change something there transmission will break

lol what are you talking about, if i change the port in my config file it'll break?
