Introduction
A couple of months ago I installed a combined Bit Torrent & Media Server in my living room. This does two things...- Downloads torrents from Internet
- Streams video over my home network to TV
Motivation
The motivation for setting up this server was to save time. Six month ago I was using my laptop to download torrents and transferring files on to USB memory stick, this was really slow.
Remote Transmission (available on Google Play Store).
How it works
I control the server using app I have installed on both my smartphone & tablet. This can be used for adding torrents and monitoring the progress of downloads. There are many apps that do, I'm usingRemote Transmission (available on Google Play Store).
