Can't find volk and soapysdr #1

Closed LukeRPi closed 4 years ago

LukeRPi commented 4 years ago

Can I have a link to download volk and soapysdr dll? I can't find them.

The easiest way to get them on windows is to install PothosSDR. You can download the latest version here https://downloads.myriadrf.org/builds/PothosSDR/

i tried copying volk and soapysdr dll's from the Pothos folder to the unpacked sdr++ one and it wouldn't run, so copied all the files from sdr++ into C:\Program Files\PothosSDR\bin and it worked there.

Ok, thanks. I've done it and it starts but when I press the play button it doesn't show the waterfall.

This means your path variable isn't set up properly. This is likely because you didn't select "add to path" (or something similar) in the pothos installer.

To fix this, type "Environment Variable" in the start menu, then click on "Edit the system environment variables". Click on "Environment Variables" and, in the new window that shows up, double click on "Path" in the "System Variables" list. A new window will pop up. You can now click on "new" and paste "C:/Program Files/PothosSDR/lib/" click again on new and paste "C:/Program Files/PothosSDR/bin". Now click "ok", then "ok" and finally "apply". Restart your computer and the libs will have been added to your path.

you SHOULDN'T paste all files in the pothos dir, if you did than, remove them (make sure they're the one from the zip file).

Try running it at a higher sample rate. From what I can see in the logs, you're running at 250ks/s, this is too low Select a higher sample rate in the menu under the device list. I suggest using 2560000 since you're using an RTL-SDR.
