Allow setting of direct_samp via init args #65

Open ryansuchocki opened 1 year ago

ryansuchocki commented 1 year ago

Direct sampling mode can currently only be set via writeSetting(). This adds the option of setting it upon initialisation.

In turn, this allows a user to trigger the mode from a client such as GQRX which has no specific support for writing settings but does allow a free-form device argument string.

I see the point. It would be preferable however if GQRX could be changed to enumerate Settings and offer a UI for them or at least offer free-form input for Settings. Any chance for that?

ryansuchocki commented 1 year ago

OK, I'll look into that. My initial observation is that gr-osmosdr (which GQRX uses) doesn't make any calls to writeSetting(), so it would have to be added there as well.

An other way would be to replace gr-osmosdr witch is no very maintened by gr-soapy. Gr-soapy is now part of GNU Radio.
