[rtl_tcp] How to enter a big (>8000) port number

Open HilmarSt opened this issue 9 months ago • 1 comments

I'm trying to use welle-io.exe (Windows version 2.4) with rtl_tcp. Due to proxy reasons, I have to enter a port with the number 8444 into the rtl_tcp configuration. With the wheel input (starting with port 1234) it takes ages to scroll to it. In the past there were some command line options - but they seemed to be removed. Is there an easy way to enter such a high port number? May be you just state the Windows registry path where the port number is stored.

#727 has a similar problem.

Currently only 4 digit port numbers are possible. Sorry for that!

Theoretically you can compile welle.io by yourself and hard code the port number.

The digit count is not the problem. The problem is how to get there: "With the wheel input (starting with port 1234) it takes ages to scroll to 8444."

I agree that we have something to change here. Let's move the discussion to this issue https://github.com/AlbrechtL/welle.io/issues/727.

In https://github.com/AlbrechtL/welle.io/commit/466be3df9894ca9f2b4a075902f2b16f42d4ca62 I changed to rtltcp settings (see screenshot). Now you can easily use big port numbers.
