Catch and Transmission QNAP
Not that maglinks are working with Catch, can anyone suggest to to configure catch to work with Transmission running on QNAP?
Currently with maglinks enabled, Catch will just save a webloc file in the Watch folder and nothing happens.
If Catch supported transmission-rpc, would that solve you problem? I personally use a small app I've written to bounce magnet links over to the machine where transmission-daemon is running. It communicates over transmission-rpc and it seems to work well. I was thinking of bringing that code into Catch directly, maybe starting as a "secret" (i.e. command line enabled) setting.
If Catch supported transmission-rpc, would that solve you problem?
Yeah, it would solve the problem for me. The karmorra mirror isn't working properly right now, so I've ended up with a bunch of webloc files, too. I can manually C&P the magnets into Transmission's web interface, but that's not really fun.
I'll look at writing a script myself in the mean time, but having this be part of Catch would be awesome.
@mipstian, did transmission-rpc support happen to make it into your alpha 2 back in December?
Catch 2.0 has an option to download feed contents using a script instead of the default torrent client. Not a perfect solution, but it definitely enables this use case. If someone writes a script that routes downloads to transmission-rpc, maybe share it here!
