Open SCarns opened 2 years ago
Also, unable to "Update Sources" to see new locations, such as French Polynesia.
What are you using to capture the sounx? rtlsdr? Ham Radio? etc? Please describe your "short wave" setup.
Scarns I can confirm that Retrieve > Capture and picking a saved sound file does not work. "Failed to configure capture"
Here is a link to some sound files. https://2bsailing.ca/info/Weatherfax_and_shortwave_radio.php

Sorry Rick. Didn't mean to drop out. I went into the yard this week and my free time evaporated. Thanks for the files, I'll check those out soon and report back.

Steve No problem. Also tryinf to get launched. Lots of projects.
Ok, downloaded the above mentioned files and they do open in WeatherFax. I was able to manipulate them and get them to display on the chart, even through they didn't display correctly because I don't know what I'm doing. So that works on the Mac. However, if I try to play a file on my phone and use the mac's microphone to see if it would audio capture, every time I select "Capture" from the Retrieve menu, OpenCPN crashes. I cannot confirm if it ever worked as I've not really tried before.
I'm just using plain old sound input here. No short wave, etc. Just simple audio input. I hope to add a virtual cable and rtlsrd I the future, but I don't have a decent antenna set up yet.
Cannot do an audio capture on Mac OS X Catalina. Audio capture sometimes crashes OpenCPN. Preferences dialog won't let me select an input. Also, preferences won't let me choose between "Meters" and "Feet".
