I was looking for something web based because the front/backend is our main tv (our plasma has no tuner) so if its web based I can add things / delete things from my laptop. I prefer to run torrents on the myth box as its on all the time, I can try installing torrentflux but didnt want to do it if there was something native in the new version or it wont run cause its arch linux.

From what i have read its only a case of copying it to a sub folder of the mythtv website and running a couple of mysql commands to install the database. I just wanted to know wether I was flogging a dead horse trying to get it to go?

As I said, it will work, after applying a little elbow grease.

I'm running Vuze (Azureus) with WebUI. It works great. I copied it over directly from my previous R5.5 install, which had been copied over from my R5F27 install, so you should be able to just follow the instructions on the wiki. Ignore the first few steps about how to install screen and the JRE and do this instead as root:

# pacman -Sy jre screen

All the needed packages and dependencies should now be in the LinHES repositories. Also, at step 5 of those instructions, the version of Azureus listed is out of date. Get the latest from here. And instead of /etc/init.d, the startup script needs to go in /etc/rc.d, and you'll need to edit /etc/rc.conf and add azureus_script to the DAEMONS="..." line.

@nick - I thought cesman said that R6 uses RUNIT? In other words, I don't know anything you place int he DAEMON= area gets loaded at all... RUNIT uses /etc/runit/1

I got the rc.conf/DAEMONS thing from the ArchLinux wiki, but I could easily be wrong. I'm really accustomed to SysV-style init, I haven't used anything else since I used Slackware ages ago. Is rc.conf really ignored completely? If so, why does the DAEMONS= line have daemons that are loaded from /var/service in it prefixed with a "!"? I figured it was so they wouldn't be loaded twice.

So what would be the best way to load a script in /etc/rc.d at boot? The Azureus boot script is a SysV-style script, but running "/etc/rc.d/azureus_script start" on the command line works fine. Could I just add that to the end of /etc/runit/2? Is rc.local ignored as well?

Ok I put torrentflux 2.4 on my R6 Box I know there were many suggestions thangs all.

I stuck with TF because i knew now it worked !! Some of the searches dont work but it works enough for me, the only problem I find is that it sets the permitions as 744 which means I cant delete the files from a windows share. I have to do it from torrentflux or chmod the directory to 777 before I delete stuff.
