OpenELEC, Transmission not installed


In official doc and forum could not find fresh info. Have anyone succeeded to install transmission on OpenELEC 2?


Solution

  • There are 2 different transmission addons for XBMC:

    • The server add-on: you must install it in order to run transmission on your XBCM/OpenELEC machine.
    • The client add-on: is for downloading and managing torrents from the XBMC interface. You do not have to install it in order to be able to download torrents.

    To get them on OpenELEC 3.0:

    Server Add-on - System → Setting → Add-ons → Get Add-ons → All Add-ons → Services → transmission

    Client Add-on - Programs → Get More → Transmission

    Instead of using the client Add-on you can use the web-interface by browsing to http://[openelecIP]:9091 from any computer on the same network.

    To find out the IP of your XBMC navigate to System → System Info → Network
