I just reinstalled xbmc with the caps off (thx akm2b) and it worked!

Now I just gotta get better Dl speeds.

Hey everyone,

I installed the bittorrent script, and it seems to work, as I can see the downloaded file size increasing on the disk. However, I can't seem to get to the download progress page, supposedly reached by pressing the white button, according to the documentation.

Anybody knows why it doesn't work? Could it be because I'm using a recent version of XBMC?

Thanks guys!

try and copy keymap.xml from your previous build to your recent build, worked for me

White should get you there, but word of advice: If you try to look at script output while the xbox is Checking Existing File, it will probably freeze/crash..

Get the Torrent Browser. It can be found here:

this script is a nice idea but in theory who the hell wants to leave their xbox on for days at a time downloading large files...can just do that on a computer...for small files i guess its cool but bit torrent take forever to download large items

just my two cents

thats why torrent browser is so much better, it browses a certain genre of game torrents over at a certain big torrent site. and it lists them on the screen. you can either 1) save them to your xbox hdd 2)have the script ftp the torrents to your comp. 3)*best of all* have it send to torrent directly to ABC 2.6.9 when you have the abc webservice enabled.

that way, you browse torrents with your xbox, and once you pick a torrent, it sends it to your computer which then spends all of the time downloading. meanwhile youre sitting around playing halo 2.

its a great thing.

hi guys, i have torrentbrowser.py and it works fine, i pick my file and it says saving torrent, then i open bitbox.py and because i have no torrent dir. specified it shows me the e directory, i go to my torrents folder whre mydownload.torrent is saved but bitbox just jumps back to the scripts page with no errors, what am i doing wrong, ive read and followed the posts befrore this one and im sooo close .

[philbee]

 now, when i select a torrent it goes back to the scripts directory and bitbox.py has runing written beside it and there are no indicators of whats happening, the xbox isint frozen and the lan led is lighting every so often, what am i missing here? ps.thanks in advance for any help.  pps im pressing the white button but nothing is happening, still says running

[philbee]

it is working as i can see the file downloading into my downloads section but still nothing when i press the white button, would be very handy to be able to see how long left etc. great script all the same and thanks for it.

Well I have two cents on that too.
Xbox only takes up 72 watts of power. My rigs takes up 400 watts... thats a big save on my electric bill!
