RTL-SDR settings broken #525

Closed aquila closed 1 month ago

aquila commented 7 years ago

Hi,

I played successfully with an RTL-SDR on OSX a couple of days ago, allowing me to listen to FM broadcast radio. After failing to move my RTL-SDR to a Pi with a connection over TCP, I decided to return to my laptop. Upon removing the remote IP, local RTL-SDR does not seem to work anymore. Even just starting gqrx sometimes hangs, unless I pick the IQ file option. Then, selecting my stick also hangs the program. I tried rebooting my laptop, which did not solve the issue. Also removing gqrx and installing it again from the DMG fails. I also tried removing everything in .config/gqrx and then reinstalling the program, which failed too. Did I somehow break my settings?

Have you seen the existing bug reports and discussions on the mailing list regarding running gqrx on Mac OS X 10.12?

The only thing I can suggest is to run gqrx and rtl_test (included in the bundle) from the command line to see if they print any useful error message.

Sorry I can't be of more help, but as I have written on other discussions I can neither build nor test gqrx on Mac OS X 10.12.

A couple of ideas to try if Mac has problems launching gqrx -

  1. Use Terminal.app to cd into the gqrx.app bundle, then run the MacOS/gqrx executable from the command line. If that works, it might be helpful in repairing the settings, and perhaps it will launch normally the next time.

  2. If using the installable version of gqrx and problems continue, try the MacPorts version of gqrx that includes the latest source code updates. MacPorts will install it at /Applications/MacPorts/Qt5/Gqrx.app.

Terminal hangs too, strange...

aquila commented 7 years ago

Commandline (via Homebrew) hangs too.
