Ok here's something that should work but I haven't had the time to try it yet just been too busy with other project so I thought I would throw it out there for someone to experiment with and prove the concept. I would also would like to thank scboley from another forum for pointing out that[url="http://showrss.karmorra.info/"]link[/url] in one of his post. It turns out that this tv show rss feed offers a way to push newly added rss feed that match your criteria to transmission torrent client. So what is needed:

1) Since most of us are using dynamic IP you will need to register with DNSdyn and create an account so that showrss.karmorra.info can access our POHD. If you are on a static IP (from your IPS provider) then this step is not necessary nor is step 2.

2) You will need to setup your router so that it can send some periodic update to DNSdyn as to what is your IP at any given time. DNSDyn service is pretty big and most router have that function available. If that function is not available you can always install and run inadyn (optware) on your POHD. This software reports your current ip address to DYNdns; search google for how to setup properly.

3) Of course you need to be running transmission on your POHD for this to work and you must change your transmission config file (settings.json) with the following paramters ( web interface enable (should already be enable), set a password / username, whitelist disabled and web port opened (should also be already opened). Also make sure that you open that port in your router and forward any request on that port to the POHD's IP. Since this port will be open to the internet I suggest a fairly strong password.

4) Now go to [url="http://showrss.karmorra.info/"]showrss[/url] and create an account there and create a list of the TV shows you are interested to and settings (quality etc...). This part is pretty self-explanatory. Now go to the showrrs account setting and select the "transmission push tab" (see attached picture).

- For Transmission web host/IP: Enter your DNSdyn account host name that you created in step 1 or your IP address if you have static IP.
- Transmission web port: Enter the port you have open on your router for this purpose normally the same as transmission web interface. In most cases 8080.
- Auth username: need I say more
- Auth password: Again make sure it's a strong one.
- Press the update settings button

Cross your finger and see if torrent gets loaded automatically as new shows that are in your list and meet your criteria are available. As I mentioned at the beginning I haven't had the time to try this so please report your findings. This procedure might need some refinement/adjustment to work properly.

In theory this should also work if you are running transmission on your PC (linux /mac).

Cheers !!!

we can't define user and passwords for transmission so the auth should be blank there.
the transmission web interface is 9091.

i will try to see how this works in a few hours and let you know

How sure why you are saying that you can not define user and passwords. Add those settings to your settings.json file:

rpc-password: String
rpc-username: String

String = username or password.

Am I missing something here???

Thank you for this snappy!

I have now added password and username to my transmission and added the series that I wanted on the site, so now I just have to wait.

Got confirmed from the site that my dyndns and the port worked perfectly, so I hope the DL does to

----------------

I now have recieved my first TV show automaticly through transmission, worked perfectly!

So once more - thank you for the guide snappy

Just tried this. Showrss is suggesting wrong parameters.

I have transmission running at :9091/transmission/web, and I have verified that I can reach it via dyndns address and authenticated correctly.


Does showrss expect a default URL?


Has anyone got this to work with transmission?

My transmission version is: 2.13-1

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

rpc-authentication-required = true causes showRss to fail.

If I disable this, showRss is able to connect, but that leaves this wide open.

Anyone been able to get this to work with authentication?
