Please report missing icons.

First, I should mention that I'm using macOS 27 Public Beta 1.

All my share definitions have disappeared. However, this didn't happen immediately after I installed the new version and restarted the app normally; it only happened after I rebooted my computer for other reasons. The app greeted me with a prompt to define new shares.

Now, a few GUI glitches:

• Dark Mode isn’t working.
• The vertical “Details” text in the “Share Details” and “Advanced Options” sections is very bold again and obscures the actual labels.
• Hiding passwords in the input field doesn’t work. They’re always visible.

I hope this helps you a little. Thank you very much for developing the app. It’s a huge help.

Best regards,

Marcus

By default either the text "unavailable" will be shown and/or a small badge will be shown with an exclamation mark in it.
Not what I had in mind.

Took me a while to figure this out, but here is where Card Mod comes to the rescue by applying a CSS style when an entity is not available.

First make sure Lovelace Card Mod is installed! (free)

Next for each card apply this card mod:

type: entity
entity: sensor.example_sensor
card_mod:
  style:
    .: |
      ha-card {
        {% if is_state(config.entity, 'unavailable') %}
          filter: grayscale(100%) brightness(0.8);
          opacity: 0.6;
        {% endif %}
      }

If the entity state is "unavailable" the card will turn grey scale, darker, and a tiny bit transparent.

Example entity available:

Example entity not available:

Hope this is helpful for others ... 😊 

It seems that when the Mac goes to sleep for a long time, it cancels (or times out) all connections, including my share's. Sometimes my share is mounted and available when waking up, but sometimes it is not. In the logs, I've noticed these messages:

09:06:40 │ POWER STATE CHANGE - Your Mac is waking up out of Sleep Mode after a 8 hours and 20 minutes nap.
09:06:40 │ - Checking if shares need to be remounted (were mounted before sleep, but not anymore)

In the second line, it says there were shares mounted before sleep, but they were not mounted anymore. Then on the third line it says "0 shares were no longer mounted", does that mean the app detected that all shares have been mounted?

Then it also says it counted 1 active share, what does "active" mean here? Is it the "on/off" switch on the app's UI? It says this even though my share is not mounted anymore. (The log I pasted above was after a long sleep and my share was not mounted after waking up in that instance)

I've noticed that even with command line mounts, Finder messes around. I've seen Finder trying to unmount the share, remount the share and complain that the share was not accessible. Finder being Finder..., this is probably Apple messing with the mount, not CMN's fault. Do you have any ideas of what is going on and how to keep the shares mounted?

Thank you so much for this incredible app!

I'm hoping you can implement a feature the looks at the Selected Episode side and Selected File side and highlights words that match on either side. I think this would make it much easier to quickly scan through to determine if the episodes on either side actually match each other.

Hello Hans,

for SMB shares it seems to work.

But I think there is an issue with NFS shares:

I checked the options: Custom Path and “Do not create sub-directory for mounting” / Mount-Point: ~/mnt

When I mount the path I get the following output in the Log Window:

Then it looks at it wis OK – but the Folder where the NFS Share is mounted is:

Mount path: /Users/christian/mnt/mnt (dxp4800-plus)

And I think this should be:

Mount path: /Users/christian/mnt/backup (dxp4800-plus)

In the Mac Finder it looks good – but the second NFS-Mount with the same setting produces this error:

Best regards,

I was able to get one NAS mounted (I have two), but it doesn't show in Finder.  I have to go to the menubar to "reveal in Finder" but it shows up grayed out with the internal directories/folders visible.  However, once I close that window it's hidden again.  Is there a way to mount it and have it stay visible in Finder?

Thanks

edit to add:  If I navigate through Finder (my old way of mounting it) it seems to mount, but I have no idea how that relates to the mounted drive via ConnectMeNow.  Almost seems as though it's mounted twice.  When I mount through Finder, it shows up in the sidebar.  When I mount via ConnectMeNow and "Reveal in Finder" it doesn't.  I'm really confused.

edit to add2:  The NAS in question has a volume name that is the same as the NAS, and the Volume has directories under it.  In retrospect this may have created some confusion on my part (wasn't NAS proficient when I set it up...still not really).  When I "reveal in finder" it skips the Volume level and goes right to the directories (doesn't really bother me). 

edit to add3: When I go to "Network" under the computer name I see one NAS connected (not the one I'm  setting up in ConnectMeNow) and one drive that appears to me unmounted (the one I AM setting up).  Yet ConnectMeNow is showing it mounted. I'm really confusedx2.

edit to add4: Read the main ConnectMeNow page and it described going to "/Volumes/" to see all connected drives, but I don't see the ConnectMeNow-mounted drive there. I'm really confusedx3.

    Running 2.3.15 on Windows 11.  This particular bug has been around for a few versions though.  There is a series on paramount called Matlock started in 2024.   There is also the original Matlock series from 1986.  When I try to rename the new Matlock I type in Matlock in the search bar, select Matlock (2024) TVDB, and it populates the episode list correctly, I then load the directory with the files to rename, and the auto select picks the episodes from the original Matlock from 1986 even though that is not in the episode list.  So I then delete the auto picks and manually select the episodes and the rename is fine.  This happens on all three sources, TVDB, TVMAZE and TMDB.  This is the only time I have seen this issue so it is a very low priority bug but interesting.  I would attach a snapshot, but the forum says no more attachments are allowed today.

Thanks,

Greg
