Hi!

I have the same problem from Miha. Even I use the rtorrent -n -o import=/opt/etc/rtorrent.conf command. The Output is:

rtorrent: can’t resolve symbol ‘_dl_find_hash’

I use 1.02.21_WDLXTV.COM_WDLXTV_LIVE-0.4.2.9 with Linux TiVo 2.6.22.19-19-4 #4 PREEMPT Thu Sep 16 12:11:23 CST 2010 mips GNU/Linux

Please can anyone help us?!

Thanks,
Cheers.

It seems that also rtorrent isn’t able to be downloaded from that web address

“Note:
/opt/etc/init.d/S99rtorrent contains syntax errors so it does not start rtorrent when you boot your wdtv, i’ll look into fixing that soon and provide a patched version.”

So, are those errors corrected yet?
Great tutorial by the way…

is there a file limit size that i can download? Because i download large 1080pHD files that can range from 4gb to 30gb.

After a while I installed your latest firmware, and it’s all ok.

I reinstalled also rtorrent following this guide, but when I drop torrent files into the watch directory rtorrent doesn’t react. Really, nothing happens.

What could be the cause?

<<< edit: No clue really, but guess would be misconfiguration of rtorrent.rc. Refer to forum.wdlxtv.com for support. –b-rad >>>

Many thanks for your tutorial and for getting this going on the WDTV; you’re a star.
Set it all up yesterday and very impressed by first 4gb download.
Trying to add another torrent today and rtorrent dies with:
Caught Bus error, dumping stack:0/ 0.0 KB] [Port: 51777] [U 0/11] [D 0/0] [H 0
Stack dump not enabled.
A bus error probably means you ran out of diskspace.
[screen is terminating]

rtorrent.conf is the same; there’s plenty of space (50 odd gb on drive) and not change to the attached drives.

Any solutions?

Many thanks,

Maxy
