SoapySDRUtil does not find RTL-SDR v4 #427

Closed frohro closed 9 months ago

frohro commented 9 months ago

I am rather new to SoapySDR and the RTL-SDR v4 both, but I expected SoapySDRUtil --find to find the RTL-SDR v4 after I installed the software as per instructions here using Ubuntu Linux, but it did not. rtl_tcp works fine though.

You need to install https://github.com/pothosware/SoapyRTLSDR

It doesn't seem to do the trick to simply install soapysdr-module-rtlsdr from the Ubuntu repo. Do you concur that I need to build the SoapyRTLSDR from source?

SoapySDR and the modules need matching versions. They need to show up in SoapySDRUtil --info. Either build Soapy all from source or none of it.
