Sonarr version (exact version): 2.0.0.4146 Mono version (if Sonarr is not running on Windows): OS: Windows Server 2012 ((Debug logs)) (posted to hastebin or similar): Description of issue: Activity queue is blank for Transmission client. Imports work fine and uTorrent previously worked fine.
I previously used the uTorrent client which became a bit of an issue when large amounts of downloads were happening at the same time.
I recently switched to Transmission and while downloads have become a lot more stable, activity has been blanked off.
Transmission doesn’t have real categories so folders are used to emulate categories, but it looks like Transmission is not storing them in a subfolder named sonarr so Sonarr can’t see them:
Couchpotato seems to need an incomplete directory to keep that functioning without issues but Sonarr is unable to read the status if an incomplete directory is set.
Since Transmission doesn’t support categories folder names are used, Sonarr requires that folder in the path to know it should be tracking it (essentially a category filter). Apparently the incomplete folder doesn’t work that way, but you could try specifying the complete directory instead of the category field in Sonarr to see if that works instead.
We’ll need to see if we can detect this behaviour and handle it better, but the result would be Sonarr attempting to track items in Transmission’s queue that aren’t things it queued or things it should track (programs, movies, music, etc).

Whats the issue if its not used? Can the incomplete file marker be used instead?
No activity from those torrents.
