[macports] gqrx-devel @2.2.1_20131204 build crashes at

[Alexander Janssen]

The current gqrx-devel version in Macports crashes right when I try to start the DSP (FCDPP here).

It doesn't seem to be dependent on a particular setting/demodulator.

Reproducibility: Always.

Give me a poke if you need more information.

Thanks, Alex.

Apparently, the macports version does not include FCD Pro+ support. It
would still be nice if it wouldn't crash, though may I may fix it
eventually.

Uh, so should that be included in osmos? I tried to build the radio block for the FCDPP, but it didn't work out (pthread-barrier problems In USB-HID - it's supposed to work, a workaround is implemented, but...)

How did you manage to link support into your Gqrx binary?

Cheers, Alex.

The gqrx 2.2 binary was built without macports and it took several
weeks to complete. The gr-fcdproplus source was written for linux only
and I had to patch it to work with osx. I believe my patches got
included upstream later, though I don't remember. Basically, the hid
files and hid related cmake code in CMakeLists.txt files should be
very similar to what is in the gr-fcd module in gnuradio.

Macports now include gr-fcdproplus and so an update of gqrx will
probably include FCD Pro+ support :-)

Alex

[Michael Dickens]

Yup: Macports now includes gr-fcdproplus, and folks with an FCD Pro+ have verified that it works. I've updated the gr-osmosdr port to make use of this new capability by default.

It looks like Gqrx does not directly use gr-fcdproplus or fcdproplus; instead, it gains access through gr-osmosdr, yes? - MLD

[Alexandru Csete]

Hi Michael,

Correct, gqrx uses FCD Pro+ through gr-osmosdr. The only thing
required is to have gqrx and gnuradio built with portaudio support but
you already got that part done a while ago.

Good news guys...

but... I don't know how to do it... :(

So' I've performed the port selfupdate and port update, now gr-fcdproplus is up-to-date, how to use it with gqrx?

Thanks a lot,

Stefano

Hi Stefano - I think you'll also need to update gr-osmosdr. You can check this via "port installed | grep osmo" and see what comes up. If the "(active)" version of gr-osmosdr contains a variant +fcdproplus then you should be good to go with Gqrx; if not, install or update gr-osmosdr (+fcdproplus is in the defaults). If this does not work, let me/the list know and we'll help you work it out. - MLD

Hi Michael,

thanks a lot, but it still not run...

I've reinstalled both osmodr than gqrx-devel but, even if all seems ok,  fcdp+ is not show on the device list (see image).

Here the output of the port installed:

  gqrx-devel @2.2.1_20140121_0 (active)

Here the logs when I run gqrx:

gqrx must be the +portaudio variant otherwise it won't be able to detect the FCD Pro+. GNU Radio must also be installed with the +portaudio option.

Alex

[Michael Dickens]

Interesting; good to know! gnuradio and gnuradio-devel are +portaudio by default, so Stefano just needs to do:
{{{
sudo port install gqrx-devel +portaudio
}}}
to get things working, it sounds like.

I'm going to start working on gr-audio-osx shortly, so that this issue should go away (along with the start/stop bug, too). I hope to get these changes into the GR 2.7.3 release, expected mid/late February. - MLD

That sounds great, Michael. But it will also require that we modify
gqrx to use the OSX audio API for getting a list of audio devices
because gr-audio does not have that API.

Hi Michael,

compiled with +portaudio gqrx run perfectly with funcubepro+ :)

Thanks a lot to you and Alex,

Great to hear that, Stefano. Thanks for reporting back! When I do get to fixing gr-audio for OSX, I'll push the branch info here for folks to test out with Gqrx, so that maybe we can push all of the changes at the same time. - MLD
