How do I ignore encrypted calls? I monitor two sites with near 50% common traffic, so I have a lot of encryption overhead and that's reducing performance. On an hourly basis there will be times where i have 5-7 simultaneous encrypted transmissions.

You can't. By nature, SDRTrunk decodes every grant that comes across the control channel(s). You can choose to disable listening or recording per-talkgroup, but there is no way to truly lock a talkgroup out so that SDRTrunk will fully ignore it.

You can with my custom build, as well as lots of other new features

its not even a fork  why not submit patches instead of copying denny's work

First of all, I did offer all my changes to Dennis,  second its open source code so anyone can use it to make their own version. Third I did try to make a pull/fork request and immediately got criticized by someone like you because it wasn't "done right". Furthermore I did the edits primarily just for myself and then decided to make them available for others. If someone wants to use my build its available, if not, not going to effect me! HAVE A GREAT DAY!

I contacted this branch developer directly, and ** SADLY NO LINUX
support *** . The zip DL is full of DLL's etc. for non Linux.

Also the mention of virtual cable in some of the features, that means
it likely wouldn't compile if you try it on Linux since there is
nothing of the sort, err well there is but it takes a degree in ALSA,
black dev arts, etc.. :) (ALSA the underlying system of sound in Linux
regardless of the lipstick of pipewire, jack, pulseaudio etc. has
VERY VERY STRONG PIPING/ROUTING features.. documented? Not for mere
mortals! :) ;) thats how OP25 routes audio is ALSA drivers to "snoop"
on audio. I did the same thing with DarkIce and OP25 to split up
audio.. ) That would need to be written to use ALSA pipes/snoop, or
likely BOTH pipewire and pulseaudio to cover the current state of
Linux audio.

I looked at the gradle/gradlew or what ever that stuff is, but in both
SDRT and SDRT-P I see files listed that are HARDCODED Non POSIX paths
including down to user names for what appears to be CORE GUI buttons
etc.. So not sure how if I even knew how to do it would compile... I
have a LXC to do the compile on the JMBE as its pretty well simple...
i just dump in the new JMBE pull and it goes to work... BUT. the main
program appears to be much more involved, and its not a step I do in
2026, last was back in the 80's on Pascal for CS/EE classes so I could
do it at home and not fight for modem time or terminals. My
development nowdays don't involve compiled stuff.

I'd really love to see a Linux version or the code bases merged,
especially the GUI persistence, audio features, drop encrypted stuff
that wastes resources, and the Zello stuff, As zello could be a plus
for some things in my area, if I can find any of those "radios" that
zello still supports since they changed min Android version last year,
and most of that "stuff from that express" site is now paperweights,
and many appear to be lying about the version as they know it won't
work. Zello probably did this intentionally, but anyway... I never
thought the zello stuff was a path.. but some things came up here that
make those things sort of viable... long story.

I'd love to see a Linux version, or instructions to compile, but it
likely would need some directives to dumps some of the audio features
that rely on virtual cabling stuff.

Just throwing this out there to any devs, would love to get NXDN some day.  Thx

Denny is already working on NXDN, as well as some of the enhancements this other guy added to Denny's code.

Whoa, that's the best news I've heard all day!  My area has a large networked NXDN system and a few smaller single site systems so there's quite a bit of activity there.  I have to use DSD+ with a different SDR right now to decode some of it, and it's fine but it'd be nice to use this app instead since it's so much more user friendly.
