Restart Roon Core via phone’s web browser

Hello all,
I’m a rookie Roon user - 2 month old :slight_smile: - and came here because every time I power off my USB DAC, when I turn it back on the Windows PC I use with Roon does not recognize the DAC.

I got tired of needing to log to the PC to restart Roon… and seeing there is no Windows Roon restart button on the interface, this weekend I made a small web service program that I run on the streamer PC and I use it to restart Roon Core via my phone’s web browser.

I just call the url http://mystreamerpc:5214/restartCore and it restarts the Core software, and the DAC is recognized after that.

If any of you are interested, I made it available at GitHub - fjcbs/RnControlApi: Small web server to allow start/stop/restart of Roon applications on my pc

By the way, my little software also allows the same control for the Roon Server software.

This is windows only, sorry about that.

Please read the README for configuration and usage information at the github repository web site.

About OSX and Linux, since the application is .Net Core, I might be able to create a release for MAC or Linux but I have no means to test it…
