App Details

A homebrew port of Transmission 2.94 for Nintendo Switch with a very basic console UI. Torrents can be added/managed by a web browser remotely, or with something like Transdroid.

exFAT support
This was tested only with the FAT32 file-system. Using exFAT could lead to DATA CORRUPTION, especially if nxTransmission crashes.

FAT32 limit
FAT32 has a file size limit of 4GB, files bigger than this limit are split automatically to a folder matching the original file name, and the file concatenation attribute is applied to the folder when the torrent fully completes. The file-system is detected based on the firmware version, and splitting is on by default if exFAT is not supported. The split setting can be forced from settings.json by adding entry

"nx-split-files": true[or false]
Notes
Torrents are downloaded by default to the /Downloads folder on the sdcard.
You can customize the settings by editing /switch/nxTransmission/settings.json, or in the browser with the web client. Be warned this can lead to speed and/or stability issues.
