Current Behavior

It's very weird and I did a lot of debugging for this issue. I use the container on my synology nas for different type of files including large video files (movies). I don't watch a lot of movies, but I usually download the movie and then use Plex from my nas to watch the movie on different devices.
Recently (months, idk if happened before) Plex had a lot of problems streaming the videos and I thought that it's a Plex problem, or any other problem, didn't thought about the torrent client.
I took into consideration the performance of my NAS so I copy the file to my laptop..same problem, the video just crash at some random point every time.
I run out of ideas but I had one last stupid idea, to download the same movie straight on my laptop, using normal Transmission, and try to see if it's the same. Did that, no problem, same movie no problem. Then I do the same on the NAS, I used another torrent client to download a movie and it worked without any problem.
I don't know what happen.. the only 'weird' thing that I notice is with the metadata of the video file that Transmission-openvpn, in the properties of the file is written "Size of file: 20 GB, Size on disk: 7 GB". With the normal transmission client, size of file and size on disk is the same.
I know it's a weird issue .. hard to explain, maybe the files are not linked correctly

Expected Behavior

No issues with large video files

How have you tried to solve the problem?

1. use normal transmission

Log output

Don't think it's relevant, no errors in the logs

HW/SW Environment

- OS: DSM 7.2.1-69057 Update 3
- Docker:  Server Version: 20.10.23 (I think it's a synology specific)

Anything else?

No response

have you tried using this container on your laptop instead of the Synology ?
this is more likely to do with your docker on dsm, your Nas etc..

[FilipLaurentiu]

Hmm, ok, I will, then come back with the results 🤝

[FilipLaurentiu]

I think I found the real problem. The incomplete folder was full of files that were not moved completely.
If the container crash, the process of moving complete torrents is started again or is aborted ? I don't see any relevant error in the logs about this.

Have you checked the transmission logs, not the container logs?
Please see if you find anything on the transmission repo issue tracker, this is not related to the container itself.

Ok, I understand. Thanks 🤝
