Add "test connection" to global configuration #75

Open andy-bom-au opened 1 year ago

andy-bom-au commented 1 year ago

Would it be possible to add a "test connection" button to the "connections" "soundcraftui configuration" page? It should test that the IP path is open (similar to ping) and that the UI mixer is responding to software requests. I think this would be very useful for configuring and debugging new setups.

Thanks for the feature request! We could implement a separate connection check, but I have no idea how to play the state back to the button (conceptually).

I'd rather suggest to use the state that Companion tracks for the connection. It can also be used as button feedback. Does that work for you?

thanks for your response @fmalcher. The place where I would like to see the test is when you first setup the mixer with the companion module. I'll try and find the module which I use that has a similar function and send you a link.
