File Transfer Daemon - Copy file after download?

Hello members + excito,

Was wondering if the file transfer daemon (B2) supports copying files to another location after downloading is complete, or if I could automate this process somehow.

Even simply changing the default download directory would be ok too.

Thanks!

Never mind, I figure it out.

You can configure the filetransferdaemon to write files to another directory.

So I made a symbolic link in my user folder to a directory that is mounted with a samba network accessable drive. Now ftd writes directly to my DNLA compliant NAS that actually supports all of my devices, unlike MediaTomb on the Bubba 2.

I strongly suggest the excito team invest in another DNLA/UPNP server as MediaTomb is just not keeping up with the technology. I had to hack it to work with my Samsung TV and it did not work with any other new devices with DNLA support.
