What's New in FPPMon

2.5.0

September 11, 2026

New controllers • Baldrick boards are now monitored like any other controller — status, firmware and board, temperature, uptime, free memory, and which protocols are actually feeding them, with dropped-frame counts when they matter. • Baldrick boards also work on the Testing tab: run the board's port identification pattern or any pattern you pick, test a single port on its own, and fire the board's effect presets (with a stop entry) straight from the Presets button. • Genius and Experience controllers running the 2.x firmware are supported. Detection, identity, playback detail, and eFuse warnings all work across both firmware generations. Better controller detail • Controllers with a KulpLights (or other branded) cape now show the cape vendor's logo instead of a generic platform image, on both the card and the detail page. • A new Cape section shows name, version, EEPROM version, serial, designer, what the cape provides, and a link to the vendor's site. • Pixel string outputs now show the full per-virtual-string wiring — pixel count, colour order, start channel, grouping, start and end nulls, zigzag, reverse, brightness and gamma — rather than just a description. Testing • A new "Apply to MultiSync remotes" option on a controller's testing section sends start, stop and test pattern changes out to its MultiSync remotes. • An "ALL ON" button sits beside "ALL OFF" for turning everything on at once. Read-only controllers are skipped. Much faster remote controller UI • Opening a controller's own web interface from away from home is dramatically quicker and no longer stalls. • Files a controller says are cacheable are now kept on disk (per device, up to 64MB, cleared from Settings), so revisits don't re-fetch them. • Page content is compressed across the internet hop — controller UI is roughly 5x smaller in transit. • Fixed pages hanging for 35 seconds: paths containing "+" or "#" now go through, two requests for the same page at once are both answered, and a request that can never be answered fails immediately instead of waiting out a timeout. • A controller found on your own network is now reached directly over the LAN rather than round-tripping through the cloud. Because the cache does the job properly for every controller vendor and firmware version, the 28MB of controller web files the app used to bundle are gone — the app is substantially smaller and no longer serves an FPP 10 controller an older version's pages. Overlay effect lists now always come from the controller itself, so they match the firmware that's actually running. Reliability • Fixed a case where a single malformed message could leave the app connected but silently stop receiving any device updates. • Devices over your plan's limit now show an upgrade tile instead of quietly disappearing. • Updated Google sign-in and various platform components. Plugin note: several of these need the FPPMon plugin updated on your FPP instances. The new plugin also cuts its polling load by about 80% and takes status straight from FPP 10's push feed, so it's lighter on your controllers.

User reviews

Needs alternate network support.

(I couldn't find this in Github or anywhere else to post feature requests so...)

This only searches the LAN the Mac is directly connected to. For those of us that maintain separate show networks behind a router- there is no way to provide an alterante network to scan. We really need a way to designate another network to scan that is accessible by the Mac.

For example, if my Mac is on 192.168.10.0/24, but my show network is 192.168.20.0/24. The show network is accessible by the Mac via a router. FPP Discovery in xLights finds and scans the alternate network just fine. An option in Preferences to designate an alternate network would fix this.
