Just started using the above setup and gotta say this is the bees bollox - I’m so impressed by just how fluid it all works - free from an insane price too - it just works flawlessly!

I’ve got to add in here - Unchained (F-droid) which connects to an RD account and allows to search stuff and either ‘aside’ for later or download immediately - the app (imho) is wicked and definately worth checking out and supporting.

The great stuff aside, I have one general question: feel free to add more…

Saving stuff: I know that torrentio will save links into my RD account for me to pick up later, but can I get it to auto download into a folder of my choice - to any folder on my network? I can get it to save onto my phone (via Unchained) but then I’ve got to transfer it into my library.

I’m looking for a easy/lazy way I guess.

Any thoughts?

    If you figure it out, let me know. I would love to do this. I have app installed on my tablet and have the smb information entered, but it doesn’t show up as Android storage like they describe.

      Hi, on f-droid there’s an app called Android Samba Client but I can’t get it to connect to my shared folder because of permissions - it says, but I can’t find a lot of documentation about it.

      Have you seen this?

      I’m hoping that it’s not connecting because of something I’m doing wrong - and maybe I can figure it out later (poss. because of my lack of understanding on my part of the way plex should share permissions with other devices).

      If you get anywhere further, please let me know. - it just doesn’t seem to be a well covered topic unfortunately.

        Just based on the wide variety of comments in that Reddit post, it sounds like there are many things that can prevent this from working. I don’t know all the details of what can go wrong, but it might depend on Android version or any customizations that various manufacturers may have implemented in their Android device.

        There probably isn’t a single solution to getting this to work, and your problem could possibly be different than my problem.
