I have a server which is running transmission daemon as a service and I'm using it over it's web ui nearly 6 months.
Recently I convert old my laptop to Media Center with Kodi and I added this addon from KODI's interface. I set up connection like this;
Host: 192.168.1.250
Port: 9091
User: (empty)
Password: (empty)
User name and password was empty because I disabled RPC auth from transmission settings. I though this is may be problem. So I wrote a password and enabled auth. I have tried browser first and I can be able to login with user name and password. After that, I wrote same info into transmission add-on and save. So, when I try to start transmission add-on it throws this error since the beginning: Could not connect to transmission.
By the way I can reach transmission port from KODI machine as you can see below:
kodi@Studio-1535:~/.kodi/addons/script.transmission$ nc -w 1 -z -v 192.168.1.250 9091
Connection to 192.168.1.250 9091 port [tcp/*] succeeded!
kodi@Studio-1535:~/.kodi/addons/script.transmission$
Also the transmission configuration is below (unnecessary information not included):
{
...
"bind-address-ipv4": "192.168.1.250",
"bind-address-ipv6": "::",
...
"rpc-authentication-required": true,
