Torrent software (0:05) Installing the qBittorrent server http://www.htpcbeginner.com/install-qbittorrent-webui-ubuntu/ Downloading of software & media via torrent can have legitimate purposes as well as non-legitimate. For example, NOOBS is available as a torrent download. Before we go too much further update & upgrade our system again by typing in the following command; sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade Download and install qBittorrent NO X server version, Web UI (User Interface) by typing in the following: sudo apt-get install qbittorrent-nox To install the qBittorrent GUI (Graphical User Interface) version type: sudo apt-get install qbittorrent qbittorrent-nox Start the GUI version of qBittorrent by selecting it from the menu (or type qbittorrent-nox into a terminal) Click I agree From the Tools menu select options MDTV3 VERSION 1 PAGE 2 OF 35 Raspberry Pi 2b Select Downloads on the left hand side. Set the directory to save files to (and if preferred the location for incomplete torrents). Select Web UI on the left hand side. Place a tick in Enable web user interface, set the port to 8888 tick UPnP and HTTPS, set the username & password and tick to bypass for localhost. I’ve set the username to qtorrent and the password to secret Test that the web interface works by typing in the address to the server: 192.168.1.68:8888 Test from the Raspberry Pi 2B as well as another computer on your network. MDTV3 VERSION 1 PAGE 3 OF 35 Raspberry Pi 2b Increase download speeds by port forwarding qBittorrent To enable better download speed, we should port forward all qBittorrent traffic from your internet router to the Raspberry Pi 2b. From qBittorrent options page click on connection and see what port number qBittorrent is using (6881). On my router I go to Toolbox, Game & Application sharing and select create a new game or application. Type in an obvious name for the application, I chose to call it qBittorrent, click Manual entry of port maps, then clicked Next. Put the port number (6881) in the port range boxes and the translate to box and click add. MDTV3 VERSION 1 PAGE 4 OF 35 Raspberry Pi 2b Click on Assign a game or application to a local network device. Select the application name we created before, qBittorrent and then select the raspberrypi as the device and click add Use an online port checking program Test the connection http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ If the test states that the port is open all is well, I have blocked out my real network address for privacy. MDTV3 VERSION 1 PAGE 5 OF 35 Raspberry Pi 2b Configuring a blocklist for qBittorrent Open the terminal and make sure you are at your home directory, type in cd Download a blocklist from where ever you like, I’m downloading this from bitsurge, type: sudo wget http://john.bitsurge.net/public/biglist.p2p.gz Unzip the blocklist by typing sudo gzip -d biglist.p2p.gz From qBittornet options click on Connections on the left and tick IP Filtering, click the icon with 3 dots to browse to the blocklist file. Click the icon with the green rotating arrow to load the blocklist Click OK https://giuliomac.wordpress.com/2014/02/19/best-blocklist-for-transmission/ MDTV3 VERSION 1 PAGE 6 OF 35 Raspberry Pi 2b Creating a startup script for qBittorrent Create a file by typing; sudo nano /etc/init.d/qbittorrent-nox-daemon Copy the contents of this script into it; http://www.htpcbeginner.com/resources/codes/qbittorrent-startup-script.txt Change DAEMON_ARGS="--webui-port=XXXX" to the port number to which you want qBittorrent to listen and Change USER=MyUserName to the name of the user whom you want to run qBittorrent daemon as. #! /bin/sh ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: qbittorrent-nox # Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog # Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: Starts QBittorrent # Description: Start qbittorrent-nox on start. Change USER= before running ### END INIT INFO # Author: Jesper Smith # # Do NOT "set -e" # PATH should only include /usr/* if it runs after the mountnfs.sh script PATH=/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin DESC="QBittorrent" NAME=qbittorrent-nox DAEMON=/usr/bin/$NAME DAEMON_ARGS="--webui-port=8888" PIDFILE=/var/run/$NAME.pid SCRIPTNAME=/etc/init.d/qbittorrent USER=pi # Exit if the package is not installed [ -x "$DAEMON" ] || exit 0 # Read configuration variable file if it is present [ -r /etc/default/$NAME ] && . /etc/default/$NAME # Load the VERBOSE setting and other rcS variables . /lib/init/vars.sh # Define LSB log_* functions. # Depend

Whether you want to watch the video on your iPod while working out, insert it into a PowerPoint presentation to add some spice, or simply download a video before it’s removed, it’s quite essential to know how to download, convert, and play these videos. There are basically two ways to download videos off the Internet and that’s how I’ll split up this post: either via a web app or via a desktop application. Personally, I like the web applications better simply because you don’t have to clutter up and slow down your computer with all kinds of software!

  • TUTTO STREAMING Il Migliori E Aggiornati Trucchi
    TUTTO STREAMING Il migliori e aggiornati trucchi Stanco dei blocchi o delle continue pause dovute al buffering mentre guardo in streaming video sulla rete, che sia in youtube, megavideo, o qualunque altro cazzo di sito streaming. Il buffer è una rottura e dipende da diverse cose quindi nn per tutti è uguale, anche se fondamentalmente la principale causa è la connessione quindi potrebbe dipendere dal router o modem, in alcuni casi cambiando il router infatti il problema è sparito. Ma per non passare a misure drastiche possiamo provare tutti i trucchi a disposizione... * * * Risorse gratuite per aggirare i blocchi di Megavideo e compagni ✔ MegaVideoNoTimeLimit – (Annullare il limite di 72 minuti e scaricare gratis film da MegaVideo) ✔ Megavideo Bypass – (Guardare MegaVideo senza limiti) ✔ VideoURLs – (Vedere MegaVideo senza limiti gratis) ✔ MegaVideo Bypasser Limit - (Annullare il limite di 72 minuti in MegaVideo) ✔ MegaStreaming – (Visualizzare MegaVideo senza limiti) ✔ MegaUPremium - (un generatore di account premium per Megaupload, Megavideo, e altri) Add-ons ✔ illimitux – (MegaVideo senza limiti gratis con add-on per Firefox o utility da scaricare) ✔ Cacaoweb (Come Illimitux è un add-on sperimentale per rimuovere i limiti MegaVideo) ✗ DetectVideo – (Altro famoso quanto obsoledo add-on per rimuovere i limiti MegaVideo gratis) Ed ecco altri add-ons per il download & streaming generale con firefox da diversi servizi. In particolare gli add-on di firefox più comuni ed usati: ➢ DownloadHelper - (Scarica filmati interi da Megavideo e altri) ➢ ConvertHelper - (Converte i filmati in download nei formati voluti come DivX, ecc..) E' da chiarirsi che ogni pro a i suoi contro purtroppo in quanto gli amministratori di siti come Megavideo e compagni, correggono continuamente le scappatoie per cercare di farci pagare i loro servizi, ed ogni volta dobbiamo trovarne di nuove.
