how to build on windows

[damp11113]

i can't build it on windows it error

>make
gcc -Wall -Wextra -pedantic -O2 -std=c18 -DVERSION=\"1.0\" -DRDS2 -DRBDS   -c -o minirds.o minirds.c

@Anthony96922 could compile this software for Windows and develop a GUI as well, right?

[Anthony96922]

I have no plans to make this cross-platform yet.

if I may make a suggestion, Fork MiniRDS and add support for RtAudio which is cross platform, then the community can develope a GUI for windows.

Hey again just to let you know I have miniRDS's base code working under windows and WASAPI lowlatency also with out the need for a resampler in the generator.

[Anthony96922]

I don't recommend using the Windows resampler because it might not be as good for non-integer conversions as what is already in MiniRds. Stereo Tool discourages using the OS resampler too. (See https://www.thimeo.com/documentation/sound-cards.html)

Hi Thanks for the response @Anthony96922 had nothing but trouble with Secret Rabbit code .. with WASAPI you specify the the back end sample rate which then deduces the frame_count so this is certainly the problem for resamplers like SRC because they wont work well at 192000/1920 buffer size its just to big for the latency... I get BER of 0-4% spiking around 12% when I enable the SRC from 190000 -> 192000

If WSAPI's output sample rate matches that of generation then its 0% BER

Which begs the question why dosnt it natively work at 192000 with out SRC .. it should beable to generate N frames of RDS at X sample rate no? bypassing the need to resample via SRC or any thing else.. and directly outputing it ... but this also dosnt work for me

WASAPI has some special flags .. AUTO PCM conversion and a In built Resampler WASAPI wont resample any thing unless you asked it to do so because to my understand its a API FLAG WASAPI Can Internally convert any PCM stuff if you didnt know what your doing again this is a API FLAG.. but if your explicity using float it then its a 24bit float sound system.
