Oh I didn't know this. So

- Plugins -> Media player = Media Player

- PVR button on remote control = Movie Player

But Media Player and Movie Player have the exact same lagging problem. Do you know any solution to this?

I just go to Pugins->Media Player

Great! Thank you

Hello rolamento and sorry for the late answer.
 
The transmission-daemon file I am talking about is editable. Here is the content:

# Default values for transmission daemon
# please fill in and enable service.
# Set DAEMON_USER to run under different credentials
DAEMON_ENABLED="YES"
DAEMON_USER=""
DAEMON_GROUP=""
DOWNLOAD_DIR="/media/hdd/torrents/"
CONFIG_DIR="/var/lib/transmission-daemon"

You are editing the wrong one. There are 3 on my DM800SE with OpenPli3:

root@dm800se:~# find / -name transmission-daemon
/etc/default/transmission-daemon
/var/lib/transmission-daemon
/usr/bin/transmission-daemon

MiLo is right though, removing the "-w" option is better but I don't know how to do it. I hope it helps!

Oh, I just found the solution so I'll answer to myself in case it might help others.

In fact the only setting which was overwritten was the directory for downloads. This is because the daemon starts with "-w /media/hdd/torrents/" and this preveals over the configuration. I noticed that running the ps command:

  451 root     35588 S    /usr/bin/transmission-daemon -g /var/lib/transmission-daemon -w /media/hdd/torrents/

So you just need to change DOWNLOAD_DIR="/media/hdd/torrents/" in /etc/default/transmission-daemon

Hope it can help others
