Not detect usb device

[jnovos]

Hi, When I put the command AIS-catcher -l it does not detect any device installed in the usb although the lsusbcommand detects it.

Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0bda:2838 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL2838 DVB-T Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

If I run the following command rtl_sdr -s 288K -f 162M - | AIS-catcher -r . -s 288K -v it works

I think it's because of the usb dock.

Thanks,

it is a very good job

Hi, weird, underlying it is the same library. Can you run AIS-catcher -L?

We can check if there is RTL-SDR support built-in as a first step

thanks Jasper

Yep, so something went wrong in the build as it has not included rtlsdr support.

Is this a raspberry? Did you install librtlsdr-dev?

Oh, can you show the output of cmake .. in a fresh build? Maybe that gives a clue

This looks ok actually, can you make again in this directory and then ./AIS-catcher -L

[jnovos]

It has worked but the SPYSERVER is not set to ON into CMakeLists.txt

[jvde-github]

It looks like it is working now. Great!

Why your comment about SPYSERVER on? SPYSERVER is always included (same as RTLTCP) as it does not require external libraries so have included it by default.

Does this resolve it?

Kind regards, Jasper

[jnovos]

I am recreating the same initial situation before opening the issue. :-)

[jvde-github]

Hi Jorge, I am sorry...what do you mean? AIS-catcher -l does not show the RTL-SDR yet?

[jnovos]

No, everything is ok, I just want to know why before I didn't go and now I do. You can close the issue. Thank you very much @jvde-github

[jvde-github]

Yeah, it is a bit odd, but glad that it is resolved. Enjoy the program and consider feeding with -X :-)
