ControlR (Android/iOS app for unRAID)


Recommended Posts

I noticed that when doing an auto discover the app does not scan the entire network if it is larger than /24 subnet. It treats any network as if it is /24 subnet. I just tried the scan on my network with /23 and it only scanned half of the ip addresses. 

 

Does the app check for the subnet mask when doing an IP scan?

Hi dscdsc,

You're right, the app assumes the lan is a /24 subnet and scans it accordingly.

I'll look into expanding this (probably a setting?).

@jbrodriguez My son has decided he doesn't like your app. He was giving me some lip so I threatened to shut off Plex. *Click* Plex Docker was shut off from the comfort of my couch and no more videos for him off the Network. :D

 

Would it be possible for ControlR to be updated and access the user script plugin so we could run custom user scripts from the app? Maybe even a on/off from within the app settings to connect to them for those who don't use custom user scripts?

How can i 'start' my system when i 'power on'? My system powers off and on just fine but shows in a 'stopped' state as you would expect after a power on. How do i start it using the app?

 

Is there an 'autostart' on power up within unRAID itself?

Thanks ... yes, that would work but what if i wanted to power up the system, take a quick look and then start it manually? Can the app do that?

Hi skylark, power on from the app sends a wake-on-lan magic packet to the server's motherboard.

The app can't access the array at that moment (emhttp isn't running yet).

It's up to how you configure autostart, as trurl mentioned.

Thanks ... i understand.

Can you tell me how to delete a server from the app? I changed IP on one of my three servers having manually discovered it and cant see how i can amend the apps IP??

Looks like a download problem

trurl, it looked like a download problem to me too.

But it also seemed like the "nohup" is not quite welcome, so just in case I removed it from the plg file (it's embedded in the actual script anyway)

 

So, plugin v1.2.3 is up, check release notes in  

 

Link to comment

v2.5.2 is available as an over-the-air (OTA) release !

 

This release fixes a bug with hostname validation in the Add Server page.

 

Additionally, a link to to the app's Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) website is provided in the Settings page.

 

The FAQ is located at https://www.apertoire.com/faq/controlr/ and is accesible from the app's website.

 

For those of you on Android, let me know if you get the update.

I have installed the plugin and bought the app but when I go to add my server manually it fails. It goes to the home screen and says no servers. What did I do wrong? 

 

I do have a password on my server but I put that into the settings when adding the server

Hi dranani, 

 

Make sure that

- you're adding the server from within your LAN

- the port you enter is the same as the webUI/Admin UI (generally 80)

 

If that still doesn't work, let me know

- are you on iOS/Android ?

- did you add the server by ip or by hostname ?

- What version of the app you're running (look for it in Settings)

 

In any case, check for additional info here

port 80 worked. Is the port that is in the plugin's page the internal port?

One more ... what's the 'alternative server press' option all about?

Some users reported issues when pressing the server on the main screen to go to the server details screen, so this setting enables an alternative logic.

I think it was an issue with older versions of Android.
