Broadlink Manager Windows see invalid device, docker version sees nothing?

Open ZoltrixGFC opened this issue 2 years ago • 12 comments

Hi,

I have an Broadlink RM4 Pro S. Tried both the Windows Broadlink Manager software and the docker version.

The Windows version reports: Looking for devices... Found device : Unknown [192.168.0.42] Writing compatible device not detected!

The docker version finds nothing when doing a scan.

I can confirm the docker version is setup on the same network, so unsure why it isn't picking anything up?

Any advice?

Hi, I stopped working on the desktop version long ago. I can try add the supported devices from the docker version but I'm not sure it will work.

@t0mer would be great if you could add them, but why do you think it won't work?

I'm a bit stuck at the moment, as Home Assistant won't scan one of my remotes (scans others ok). I posted the issue, but no response yet: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/63578#issuecomment-1007112478

I have the same issue i have an RM4 Mini (RM4C i think) and an S3 hub but the docker is not picking up anything

Yep still the same issue here.

Same. RM4C Mini and nothing shows up on the scan. Home Assistant Broadlink integration works but the docker broadlink manager can't find the remote :(

I think @t0mer is on leave, not sure when he is due back.

Hi @ZoltrixGFC I'm not on leave (: Working on other projects and also on a big update to the docker version of broadlink manager. Hopefully I'll get back to the Windows desktop version by mid-April.

Hi @pakshuang, What is the model of your RM Device?

t0mer avatar Mar 28 '22 08:03 t0mer

Hey @t0mer, It says RM4C mini on the device, which is 0x62be in your docs.

Windows version of Docker (if on WSL2 at least) does not allow net=host without going through a complicated process each time it's run to port forward to a changing on boot IP for the WSL2. That's why it sees nothing.

If there was a way to NOT do the net=host, even if it requires forwarding a bunch of ports, That'd be a big help. Does anyone know which ports it's using? As an application-level tool, that doesn't need to be running except when needed, I wouldn't mind forwarding a bunch of ports since it'll only be using them while I run the tool.

If there's perhaps a way to manually tell it what IP & MAC to look for?

I didn't see a windows version, just the Docker, I know everyone says it doesn't work but where can I find the Windows version?

@LostOnTheLine, @t0mer said he updated the Windows version mid-April, did you get the latest version?
