Heimdall is brilliant, this is exactly what I wanted. Thank you!

That was an easy solution. Thank you!

Hi, I think my idea is relatively simple but not something I’ve done before. I want to host a LAN website where I can access the docker applications via a hyperlink to the port numbers host on UnRaid. This would provide a single interface that’s easy to reach with any device via any browser to gain access to my docker applications. My thoughts were to run WordPress. Again not having any experience with this does that seem logical or are there better suggestions? PS, I know I could just save shortcuts on web browsers but I want to make something graphical pleasing and I just want to experiment with an alternative method to access docker applications. Thanks for any suggestions in advance.

Thanks TimTheSettler for all this info. You have done a great job explaining it. I’ll be working on creating a VPN Gateway via the server for any device on my network, I’ll configure the appropriate static IP address/settings for those specific devices. I’ll also work on routing specific docker containers on the Unraid server to the VPN client on the same server. I have a good basic understanding of networks so that bit isn’t too daunting to me. It’s putting my knowledge to practical use that can be a bit tricky. Thanks again.

....for anyone else searching it looks like you need to host a VPN client such as Wireguard or Open VPN. Either VPN client has it's own protocol and that needs to be supported by the remote hosting VPN such at ExpressPVN or IPVanish.

Hey, I’ve been running an Unraid server for about 6 months now and I’m loving it. It’s just want I wanted and gives me loads of flexibility to be creative with all my home entertainment needs. I’m running a whole bunch of things from Home Assistant, Hyperion, Plex etc. the one thing I’ve been reading about lately is VPN. I have little interest is gaining access to my LAN remotely by VPN via Unraid (I have other solutions for that). My interest is linking my LAN to a remote VPN such as IPVanish or Express VPN. most info I’ve found on the internet points towards remote access to LAN. My question is could someone help me point me towards the right app to use and what keyword I’m obviously missing in my internet searches. I assume I can run an app that acts as a gateway to the remote VPN Server. For example, I want to run my Xbox from my LAN to the remote VPN server. I assume after I have an app correctly configured I can point the Xbox Gateway to the App IP to then use the configured VPN. I would also like to run certain Dockers via the same VPN server. Could anyone lend a helping hand, please? Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much!

It would be great to get the latest update, please!

I did, yes! Sorry, I should have mentioned that.

I think I know what I have been doing wrong. in the edit screen of the docker container I added /dev/video0 as a 'device' in the 'value' field. I can now get the video stream from the capture card!

I don’t believe it’s a bug. It’s my inability to get over the permissions setup. That’s why I put a post up so that someone with some knowledge could hopefully lend a helping hand.

from what I understand that destination is effectively where the video is routed to. add that path in your container (by typing it, not from the drop down menu) with privilege mode on

on the config of the docker container pass the path /dev/video0 to /dev/video0 of the container. enable Privilege mode and see if your Hyperion WebGUI detects the USB grabber. this is just a test to see if it works. I would advise to disable Privilege mode again after testing.

how far have you got?

I have had a few issues integrating my USB grabber to this Docker container. The correct path for my grabber is /dev/video0 and I have entered this in the config. I believe there is a permissions issue as Hyperion is not able to find the Video source via it's WebGUI. If I switch the container into Privilege mode the application then works as expected. for security reasons I don't want to have Hyperion running in privilege mode. Is anyone able to help or have experience with this?
