FPP Connect assumes port 80, cannot connect to any other port

[EvilfishInsane]

Describe the bug
I am using the FPP player through the docker image. I deployed the docker in my system, and after some setup, I tried to connect to it through the FPP Connect option under Tools.

When I entered my IP for the player with port 192.168.1.89:2412 nothing happens. If I tried just with the IP I do get a brief loading box:

But nothing happens, but this was kind of expected as the port was not 80. If I change the port to 80 in my docker system, then it works fine:

Now, yes, I could just use port 80, but as I might have some plans that need port 80 for something else, this is suddenly a problem. Could we include the possibility to use a port number to connect to a FFP running in a docker container?

To Reproduce
These steps assumes that a docker container system is installed and running. Also make sure firewall is not an issue.
0. Pull the container

docker pull falconchristmas/fpp

1. Start FFP container with port exposing port 2412 or something none 80 for ease docker-compose.tml provided:

version: '3'
services:
  fpp:
    image: falconchristmas/fpp
    ports:
      - "2412:80"
    volumes:
      - type: bind
        source: <pathToLocalDirectory>
        target: /home/fpp/media

sudo docker-compose up -d

2. Try to connect to falcon player from xlight using the FPP Connect. Try with and without port. Observe no connection.
3. Shut down the container

sudo docker-compose down

4. Edit the docker-compose file:

version: '3'
services:
  fpp:
    image: falconchristmas/fpp
    ports:
      - "80:80"
    volumes:
      - type: bind
        source: <pathToLocalDirectory>
        target: /home/fpp/media

5. Start container again

sudo docker-compose up -d

6. Try to connect to falcon player from xlight using the FPP Connect, see it works.

Expected behavior
I would have liked to see that if you search for FFP at x.x.x.x:port and the port was anything else than 80, then it would work.

Versions (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 10
• xLights version 2024.06 64 bit

Assuming you meant 192.168.1.89:2412 colon not semi-colon. And that doesnt work?

That was a typo, fixed the post, and also verified I haven't used semicolon in my test. I cannot connect with FFP Connect with a port defined like 192.168.1.89:2412
