A self hosted VPN service is probably the best way to connect to a remote SageTV system anyway. |

And stuff like Wireguard or OpenVPN is pretty easy to set up these days. Especially Wireguard. |

Wasn't there a point where Narflex was going to find an alternative way to do this, or is current update that it will be shutdown in a few days? |

Yeah, I am going to change the SageTV server code so that you can specify an alternate locator server. But we haven't set that up yet...it's very likely there will be a gap between the shutdown and the new server being available. But I will do it because I actually want it for my own purposes as well. :) |

Cool beans, thanks. I’ve been using DNS sites for years now when traveling and testing. |

I pushed an update to the SageTV code that now enables configuring the locator server location: That means there will need to be a new JAR for servers to use and then also for placeshifter clients. The Android client will also need to be updated to handle this too. The new domain name for the locator server is locator.mu3d.com (the default w/ the updated code). If you were using locator.sagetv.com/locator.php to redirect to your home webserver...you can still use that at the locator.mu3d.com location (that will then also provide IP address resolution for a locator ID to deal with clients that are not updated for the new server). |

Ok, then regarding the WinHTTrack site-rip I did - that also worked for searches, but yes, that was early June I tested it. I'm guessing even the downloaded site that's on the drive somehow is referencing the old online site, as searching doesn't work on the HTTrack version either. What am I not understanding about the HTTrack concept? Thanks for the quick replay :) |

What likely happened is you clicked on a link in the site rip that took you to the real website and then the search was performed there. There's no way searching will work in an offline site copy (unless you're using grep locally or some other kind of local search mechanism). |

Hmmm, OK. I just assumed since HTTrack created the image from start to finish, it would be looking within the drive itself for all files. I didn't realize the links would be addressed to an external location, but I guess that makes sense. |

Everything is re-linked internally...but pages that it did not download will revert to using their existing links to no longer existing pages. |

I used Total Commander’s ‘find text’ search feature, which while a bit clugey, has at least found several html pages with the words I’m looking for. Surprised it didn’t download all the pages in 7gb. |

Has anyone taken time to work with this new update from Narflex regarding the locator service? I have not, but my brain siezes when lines of code appear, so I'm not the best reference here... |

Nobody? Anyone using what Narflex set up? |

Placeholder for modifying configurations to use the SageTV locator service after the June 1st, 2023 shutdown. (I'm going to link to this from the announcement in the archived forums)
