Re: unofficial Docker Container for Record Engine

Post by Alan111S »

Just started using the container myself. Got it running on Synology NAS.

Noticed a couple of things - originally I set:-
DVRUI_PORT=10080 but my browser didn't like that so changed to 59080.
However, the nginx.conf listen port was not automatically updated so I nuked my config and ran again.
Wouldn't it be better if this automatically updates when the setting is changed ?

Also, I was trying to pass DVRUI_TZ=Australia/Melbourne through to the Engine but it was not set and the system seems to default to UTC:-

---------- PHP INFO -------------------------------------------------------------
php version = 7.4.30
php.ini file = /etc/php7/php.ini
php.ini date.timezone =
date_default_timezone_get() = UTC
---------- DVRUI VARS -----------------------------------------------------------
DVRUI_DEBUG = 1
DVRUI_name = HDHomeRun DVR Manager
DVRUI_version = 2.1.0
DVRUI_TZ =

It is a setting for the container to remap ports, so if you change it the docker system has to update and if already running that includes stopping it and restarting.
You shouldn't have needed to nuke the config - just stop, edit the configuration and restart

Yeah - that's not supported on the docker container.
It was added for when the full DVRUI existed in its own right, but was removed since.
If I get time over weekend I might check out making the change and also doing a PHP update
