This is very interesting. I want to ask some basic questions. When cards are on each of 2 computers (unRAId and Win), the cable gets connected directly between the 2 cards? No need to connect to router? I'm thinking this could be used nightly to backup my "irreplaceable" data from the array, to Windows. I only have the one unRAID and no other NAS. Storing media and family photos, docs. Can anyone suggest additional potential uses for this?

Sorry guys, I have not kept up with this Docker. Last time I tried it, I was using another Docker fork. This is how my config page looks like: A quick install shows it running... Cannot recall which template I use for this. But I git this from my /config/plugins/dockerman/templates-user/myMy-MineOS.xml Just make sure you edit the "XXXXX" with your own password- in two places. <?xml version="1.0"?> <Container version="2"> <Name>MineOS</Name> <Repository>yujiod/minecraft-mineos</Repository> <Registry>https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/yujiod/minecraft-mineos/</Registry> <Network>bridge</Network> <Privileged>false</Privileged> <Support>http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=39623.0</Support> <Overview>&#xD; MineOS is an easy to manage Minecraft Server.

Sounds easier to get the remote and switch the input to my cable box w dvr. What a drag. But I only watch tv for news and occasional sports. Sickrage/Medusa is a good friend of mine.

Question for US guys. If I set up kodi and or plex on a win7 VM with video and USB passthrough, will DRM channels show up? Or drm works only on windows media center? i could then setup tha vm to auto-start kodi or plex.

Thank you guys.

Thank you Gog. Any ideas how to find out what to put after --device? I can see how one would to a hard drive, but for a USB device?

Thanks

@deaerator I have no experience to answer your question. But I am curious about the hardware you are using and how you connect it to unRAID and the Docker. thanks,

A though. Can a new Docker be made that includes the compatible Linux drivers? One where a firstrun.sh script installs it? There is still the issue of passing the USB device to a docker. I could never move Plex from a Docker to a VM.

Thank you Mr. N.... It looks like I am going to throw in the towel.... an HDHomeRun is too much $$ for just watching over-the-air channels IMHO.

But wouldn't all these drivers be included with the latest version of Plex which are compatible? From the Hauppauge site: How does one pass a USB device to a Docker with the /dev/dvb? Is that unique only to @CHBMB docker?

The new Plex Live TV thing lists the supported compatible devices: https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/225877427-Supported-DVR-Devices-and-Antennas What keeps me from buying the $50 USB Adapter is how to bridge the USB into the Docker.I know all you in Europe have it really handy... us in the US are not so lucky.

Into something like this: https://www.amazon.com/AVerMedia-AVerTV-Volar-Hybrid-H837/dp/B006PU81QE Also works with any HDHomeRun. But how is the USB connect and seen by the Docker?

Well they made a big new announcement today...Before it was DVR only, and now they have Live TV as well. Also, no need for tuner card. Just an antenna...yet I wonder if connecting a coax line from my cable provider would alloww me to watch the non-drm channels.

Hi Gog, looks like the beauty of this NEW feature is the live tv with the program guide etc. watch the video from my link above.

Did you guys hear about new live tv feature in Plex???!! For us yanks, this could be a nice thing. you need to buy a USB tuner device and an antenna. And you can tune to your local channels from anywhere. https://www.plex.tv/features/live-tv-dvr/ I guess the hard part for us Dockers is how to connect/pass the USB tuner to the plex docker. Any thoughts or ideas?

Another question unrelated to the one above. Does anyone use an Ankuoo REC switch with Homebridge? They are so cheap at $20 and very reliable... There is an HB plugin, but there is some "packet sniffing" procedure to make it work. The switch is sadly NOT compatible with SmartThings. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the necessary codes with packet sniffing to put into the config.json. Here is the link to the plugin. This would complete my entire home automation gear with HB. Thanks! H.

Hi, Is it possible to change the Docker to install the LATEST version of Homebridge (HB)? I use basically 3 things in my home with HB; SmartThings, Sonos, and Lifx bulbs. The Lifx plugin will not run on the default install version of HB. I have to manually go into the HB Docker and run: npm upgrade -g homebridge Once I do this, I have to manually install via command line the Lifx plugin. If I put the Lifx plugin in the pluginsInstallList file, the docker crashes... it is cumbersome to get around this. Or is it possible to add a line for upgrading homebridge in pluginsInstallList? Many thanks, H.

I found the answer... shutdown the Docker. In the /appdata/homebridge directory, DELETE the folder "persist". Re-start Docker and it should appear.

I too cannot get the Homebridge with the SmartThings plugin to show up on my iOS devices. I followed the guide and everything shows up as running on the Log window. Any ideas? Many thanks, H.

Any chance we could get a Midnight Comander or terminal window in a tab? With full F-key support. I know there is a cli plugin, but it's a bit buried to get to the ui. Something one could change the font size like in putty. Thanks

@darbronnoco thank you. I saw a few tutorials on this.

Thank you for this. Where do I get the values for username, pin, app_id, and access_token? H.

Thank you guys. I think I will stay away from the disk duplicate thing. I will limit the scan just to /mnt/user/

Question: I assume this is to find duplicate files that exist on 2 or more drives in your array but a single share. For example. I have a share /mnt/users/music/, in it, I have /Coldplay/Albumx/track1.mp3 With DupeGuru, wil it find for example: /mnt/disk3/music/Coldplay/Albumx/track1.mp3 AND /mnt/disk5/music/Coldplay/Albumx/track1.mp3? If this is so, for /storage, should it not map to /mnt/? Thanks, H.
