Hi all,

The instructions were meant for older firmware version. The update to newer firmwares with version 3 sdk changed quite a fair bit of things. What I recommend is reverse the changes by doing what is mentioned in the section “Oops. Something went wrong”. If you had followed the guide, you can change it back to the original file.

Thanks

Hi,

I tried your method above and managed to complete all steps successfully. The only thing is that I am still seeing 0KB/S for every torrent on my list. I have 3 currently running at the same time. Why am I still getting no speed at all.

Thanks

Somehow I cannot get the BT client working (tried many ports). Doesn’t start downloading. Everything to 0kb! Once with 12345 it worked only for 5 sec. The following I choose:

-p 12347 –max-peers 30

(Netgear router upnp has noticed this port also. I did not forward this port because it said that it was in use…)

hope there is help since I cannot download with the AC Ryan anymore!

I have Playon!HD using Firmware_PV73100_v7.3.3.r3582_Asian.
Now that / is mounted on squashfs which is read-only, I supposed the prescribed method of modifying btpd script is no longer applicable. I tried and was unable to write the amended script.

Also, I have the same problem as Vanessa from the start the very 1st attempt to download torrent. btpd stops a few minutes after starting the torrent.

Pls advise.

Hi,

I have a nexus500, but it uses same versions of btpd and linux.

However, when I look for the btpd daemon:

~ # ps ax | grep btpd
4998 root 764 R N /tmp/package/btpd

it seems like it doesn’t use the script you have commented. The script exists, but it’s not used at all.

Any suggestion on how I could change that?

Thanks a lot for the help!

> You can use the command “mount -o rw remount /” to remount it as rw for file edits

not in firmware r3582
I got this replay when asking about the problem on the ACRyan forum :

Old Firmware use yaffs on root. You can use “mount -o,remount,rw /” command on yaffs.
But new fw r3582 use squashfs on root. squashfs is read only file system.

Can you restart your ACRyan. After it boots up, do a “ps -a | grep btpd” and paste me the results? What firmware version are you on? I understand that newer firmwares have stored the location of the script in other locations

Ali,

Basically replace it with your ACRyan’s IP address on your network.

Hi,

I just gotA.C.Ryan PlayOn!HD and have tried following the instructions to change the default port of the BT.

Everything runs ok until the portion on “Checking if it is correct!”

In step (5), after i type
“/tmp/hdd/root/script/btpd status“. Press
Instead of seeing “btpd running”, I still see “btpd stopped”

I have tried changing the port a couple of times and keep runnning into the same problem.

Any idea what is wrong? Pls help….
