  • Tools & Utilities
A simple container that opens OpenRGB in a browser so that you can control all of your System lighting while still running UnraidOS. OpenRGB is an Open source RGB lighting control that doesn't depend on manufacturer software. ASUS, ASRock, Corsair, G.Skill, Gigabyte, HyperX, MSI, Razer, ThermalTake, and more are currently supported. WARNING! This project provides a tool to probe the SMBus. This is a potentially dangerous operation if you don't know what you're doing. Exercise caution when clicking the Detect Devices or Dump Device buttons. There have been reports of Gigabyte motherboards having serious issues (bricking the RGB or bricking the entire board) when dumping certain devices. On the same lines, exercise the same caution when using the i2cdump and i2cdetect commands on Linux, as they perform the same functionality. OpenRGB is not liable for damage caused by improper SMBus

Common questions

Does the P3R OpenRGB container require extra Docker permissions?

Yes, it is a Docker container that requires a few extra permissions, though it is less invasive than a VM and safer than running a program directly on the Unraid host OS.

Where can I get support for the P3R OpenRGB Controller?

The official unRAID support thread points users to a Discord channel for faster assistance.

What should I know if the container reports missing udev rules?

One unRAID user encountered a container warning that no udev rules were installed, and manually placing a rules file did not resolve the problem.

Can OpenRGB make a lighting device stop responding?

One user abandoned it after the OpenRGB firmware branch left a keyboard unresponsive until reflashing, possibly related to high current draw when LEDs were cranked up.
