Hi!
The worker on the same machine in the same Docker instance doesn't want to connect. I tried both 127.0.0.1 and the real IP. What should I do?

handbrake-web-worker | [worker] The worker process has started.
handbrake-web-worker | [worker] [server] Connection to server lost, will attempt reconnection...

  handbrake-server:
    image: ghcr.io/thenickoftime/handbrake-web-server:latest
    container_name: handbrake-web-server
    user: 0:0
    ports:
      - 9999:9999
    volumes:
      - /home/forestq/handbrake:/data
      - /mnt/storage2:/video #ensure this path is the same across all containers

  handbrake-worker:
    image: ghcr.io/thenickoftime/handbrake-web-worker:latest
    container_name: handbrake-web-worker
    user: 0:0
    environment:
      - WORKER_ID=server #give your worker a unique name
      - SERVER_URL=10.3.5.32 #set to the url or ip of your server
      - SERVER_PORT=9999 #if using a reverse proxy, this may be different than what is set above
    volumes:
      - /mnt/storage2:/video #ensure this path is the same across all containers
    depends_on:
      - handbrake-server
```</div>

Hey, this was brought to my attention by another user in another issue - I believe the solution to this issue is to change:

- SERVER_URL=10.3.5.32 #set to the url or ip of your server

to:

- SERVER_URL=http://10.3.5.32 #set to the url or ip of your server

I will update the readme with this info when I get a chance. Also I think I'm going to make it so you can either include or omit http:// in the next release for better flexibility.

This issue will be addressed by #143 and #144 :)

ooops, SERVER_URL kind of implies it. )) thx

No worries, thanks for bringing it to my attention, I can definitely account for this to work either way.
