[SOLVED] Doubt: Change value of Transmission download-queue-size

General Discussion
1

Hello,

Transmission settings are stored in

/var/lib/transmission-daemon/.config/transmission-daemon/settings.json

If I edit values…

    "download-queue-enabled": true,
    "download-queue-size": 2,

to show as…

    "download-queue-enabled": true,
    "download-queue-size": 10,

because I would like up to 10 files downloading at the same time and then restart transmission

systemctl restart transmission-daemon.service

the value is restored to

    "download-queue-size": 2,

As that value cannot be set from Transmission web interface either, what would be the correct way of editing it?

Thank you in advance

I guess Transmission stores changed settings to the file when stopping. Hence, for all settings that cannot be changed via web interface, you’d need to stop the service first, change the file, start the service.
