Torrest hangs while download if I point paths to external USB dongle on my Cube gen3

[puppinoo]

Hi, Subject basically says all. I inserted a USB dongle into my Fire TV Cube gen3 usb port. After it's been recognized I pointed "Download path" and "Torrent folder" to something like: /Storage/USB id/Android/org.xbmc.kodi/ first and after I also tried /Storage/USB id/Android/org.xbmc.kodi/files/. Torrest starts correctly but when I try to download anything, if the file is big, the buffer starts accumulating but suddenly hangs. Not sure if the issue is related to the USB pointing but I cant try using internal storage cause it's very limited. Sorry for wasting your time if I did anything wrong.

Regards.

Hello,

Could you please have a look at https://github.com/i96751414/plugin.video.torrest/issues/25 ?

Can you also check if you are seeing multiple hash failed alerts?

Hello,

Could you please have a look at #25 ?

Can you also check if you are seeing multiple hash failed alerts?

Hi, I checked thet suggested thread but I'm not sure what to do. Do I have to test a different lib version? I also verified I dont have a user agent set. Here's my settings.json. Tomorrow I'll try to generate some log.

P.s.: I suspected FireOs gives false info about available free space so maybe the lib thinks I have not enough space. Btw I tried setting the check_available_space to false. Still no luck.

Thanks for replying. settings.json

Hi, sorry for being late but been busy with work. I tested using adb for monitoring and I confirm the torrent are being correctly downloaded into /storage/4028-1F23/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/torrents where 4028-1F23 is my usb dongle. Unfortunately the log into /sdcard/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.video.torrest/torrest.log is always 0 bytes so I was noit able to find anything useful. I confirm the download starts correctly into the correct external folder but suddely hangs and speed lowers to 0b/s

Let me know if I can test better (maybe the log is into a different folder?)

EDIT: using JackTook as torrest client.

EDIT2: The download often stops at around 33554432. Maybe the filesystem of the dongle cant handle size bigger than that? FS given by mount cmd is /dev/block/vold/public:8,1 on /mnt/media_rw/4028-1F23 type vfat

Thanks.

Frankly mount output is very confusing so I paste the WHOLE output

maybe this explains the issue

Yes, that might be the problem. FAT32 supports a maximum of 4GB file size.

I would like to see torrest.log with all log levels set to debug tho, just to make sure I am not missing anything. You might have to close Kodi so its contents are flushed.

Hi, sorry for not responding earlier but work happened. Since FS support on local FireOS is limited I decided to install server on my vps and use it remotely so I cant provide logs right now but I will try this weekend. Thanks again for your amazing work and sorry again. I have questions about cleaning installation but I'll open another issue cause it's offtopic here.

Cheers.
