hackrf detection problem on windows #2757

Closed danyhm closed 8 months ago

danyhm commented 8 months ago

Hello,

same as #1530 , i have problems detecting hackrf in windows 10.

copying rtl_433-rtlsdr-soapysdr.exe to PothosSDR\bin installation solves the problem , however I just wanted to point out this problem so a solution can be found so we can use the rtl_433-rtlsdr-soapysdr.exe without PothosSDR installation.

zuckschwerdt commented 8 months ago

We are using Pothos 2021.07.25-vc16 to build. Which version did you install? Maybe it's just a different major version and thus the modules can't be loaded.

danyhm commented 8 months ago

I'm using the same version. I even replaced the DLL's from pothos but nothing changed

zuckschwerdt commented 8 months ago

Placing rtl_433-rtlsdr-soapysdr.exe in PothosSDR\bin works, but copying the bin/SoapySDR.dll to the rtl_433-rtlsdr-soapysdr.exe dir does not? Strange. Not sure how to debug that.

danyhm commented 8 months ago

yes that is exactly what is happening. if i run the default release of rtl_433 i get the following:

C:\Users\xxx\Desktop\rtl>rtl_433-rtlsdr-soapysdr.exe
rtl_433 version 23.11 branch  at 202311281352 inputs file rtl_tcp RTL-SDR SoapySDR

and if i copy everything from pothos/bin to rtl directory i get no errors but again nothing happens

Can you run SoapySDRUtil --info in both dirs (needs to be copied to rtl_433 dir)? Is the Search Path maybe different?

the search path is relative to the current directory. it searches ../lib/SoapySDR/modules0.8 folder. so I created that folder one level above rtl_433 and the results became the same and modules are detected however hackrf is still not detected.

So the module search path is relative to the Soapy library. That explains it. The only way then is to copy the rtl_433 executable to the Pothos bin path.

I should add a note to the bundled release note.
