Emby and Transmission

[soloam 3]

Hello, I would like to detect if my server is streaming a file and pause my transmission if so! This would allow me to have full network bandwidth to the streaming.

 

I can make a simple batch file that monitor the transcoding folder, and if not empty, pause transmisson, but I think that a solution with the api would be better.

 

Can any one point me in the correct direction? Been wondering around the forum looking for documentation, but no luck.

 

Thank You

What do you mean pause your transmission?

Sorry! Transmission is a bittorrent client, I should start by that! Basically what I what is to execute a batch every time Emby is playing something and another when is stooped!

There will be a new webhooks plugin with the upcoming Emby Server 4.3:

Hi. 

So, how did you make use of it? AFAIK you can't directly connect EMBY via webhook plugin with a torrent client. Did you write a small web server with a rudamentary logic that acts as a intermediary?

@soloamit would be really cool if you could share how you used the webhooks / if you were able to make automations work. I have 100Mbps down, but only 20Mbps up, and it's really important to slow down downloads when there are active sessions on Emby.
