I have recently compiled from GIT CubicSDR so it would be able to use the BladeRF unit that I got the other day. Unfortunately, it crashes right when I click the start button. When opening the application, the main window appears and then the add source dialogue. It does locate my BladeRF. I select it and press "start" and then boom. Based on the MacOS crash report, it looks like there is a null dereference occurring somewhere. I should highlight that I am able to use sdrpp with the same device and it works ok. I should also highlight that I am able to use the RTLSDR with this compiled version of CubicSDR. So, it is something specific with the interaction of CubicSDR and the BladeRF, potentially via Soapy?.
