is it possible to get the etorrent plugin for the PLI images?

or, is there any other plugin which can be used to manage .torrent files?

thanks for great images!

[greyMD]

nothing ?..

Is there a etorrent plugin, anyway?

[greyMD]

the etorrent plugin is available for another image - gemini - don`t know if here is allowed to speak about the concurrents, is not - please edit the name with asterisks.

anyway, i would like to manage torrent files within the dreambox.. something like ctorrent...

is it possible with PLI ?

[dAF2000]

Okay, I didn't know there was such a plugin. I'll see if it works on PLi too.

[greyMD]

great

either i cannot find it on any uploads, etc.

if you do success in finding it, please make it available on a fileshare-service.

thanks and waiting for your analysis of plugin!

what's the advantage over ctorrent?
ctorrent does just what you want, and is available for the OE boxes.

But the binary should run on older boxes as well.

However, I'm wondering why you would want a torrent client on a 500.
If you are using a network mount, why don't you run the client directly on the device which holds the harddrive?

yes, the client will run on a 500s, but i have a NAS in LAN, where i shall save the files...

[pieterg]

I would suggest running the torrent client on the NAS, instead of on the box.

[dAF2000]

ctorrent (I've found it) is about 600kB and won't fit anyway in a DM500.

I would suggest running the torrent client on the NAS, instead of on the box.

is it possible ? how can i do so ?

[greyMD]

i`ve managed to install the ctorrent plugin, but when launching it got error:

can`t find the librt.so.1 library...

I don't know, depends on which nas device you have.
I can run ctorrent on mine (nslu2), I particularly selected this device because I can run an openembedded linux distribution on it.

unfortunately, i had to switch to *another* image... but i still remain a big fan of PLI, the best images ever.

hope the torrent plugin will be availabe for PLI soon, so i could switch back to PLI

thanks once again for great images...

[greyMD]

Try copying the /lib/librt.so.1 file from Gemini and put it in Pli's /var/lib, reboot or run ldconfig, and see if etorrent works then...

As always, there's a possibility of an image choking on libraries from another image, but it shouldn't be anything that a reinstall w/ dreamUp shouldn't be able to fix...
