14.4 Using Torrent Client
The Popcorn Hour C-300 has a built in torrent client. You can use this torrent client to download files
rather than leave your computer on. To use the torrent client go into the NMT Applications section of
the Setup menu and start the service. Please note that the service will remain on, even after a power
cycle, until you go back and stop it.
IMPORTANT: The torrent client uses the formatted local storage to save your downloaded files. Please
make sure you have enough space for the download to complete.
Once the torrent service has been enabled on the Popcorn hour C-300, you can use your computer’s
web browser to access the Torrent client interface. Type the following address in the address bar of
your web browser:
http://NMT-IP:8883/torrent/bt.cgi
Where NMT-IP is the IP address or host name of your Pocporn Hour C-300. For example;
192.168.1.101 or A300.
IMPORTANT: The computer or device you are using the web browser on must be on the same net-
work as the Popcorn Hour C-300.
At the BitTorrent client GUI, click on Browse and select the torrent file.
Once the torrent file is selected, click on Upload to add the torrent file to the torrent list on your Pop-
corn Hour C-300. The torrent client will start to download the file(s).
Other settings are available through the web GUI such as the Scheduler which can be used to schedule
torrent downloads and set their upload/download limits.
IMPROTANT: The Popcorn Hour C-300 has to be switched ON and properly connected to the internet
during the scheduled download time in order for the BitTorrent client to download the required files.
