@vvombat I've broken all UDP inputs yesterday with my refactoring :-) Are you still interested in looking into the inputs? It might be an appropriate time to do this. I don't think the UDP inputs are used by anybody ( @nickpiggott how about your EPG stuff? pipes?) so it's not very urgent.
I don't think maintaining a functional DMB input is a very high priority. I'm not aware of anywhere using DMB other than South Korea, plus trials in the Netherlands and Norway (which might have ended now).
I'm currently reading up on half-open TCP connections because I seem to be impacted by this in my home experiment (between mux on the internet, and mod at home)
I had hoped that with TCP I can't end up in a situation where the modulator gets stuck because of a strange connection state, something I observed with ZMQ, but apparently it's to be expected somehow.
I think @magicbadger can probably tell you about problems with similar systems at Global, where it just gets in a state where the client and server both think the connection is still valid, but it's not until something overflows at the TCP stack (which never happens for the client if it's only receiving data) that the broken connection is noticed.
I've added a timeout now on the receiving end.
The ODR-PadEnc and ODR-AudioEnc READMEs have been updated too.
@mpbraendli - can I suggest a card for the Mux trello? Switch announcements control input to something like ZMQ. The problem with the current telnet interface is that it's a single-user, interactive and blocking, so if you have multiple announcements (or have someone in the management interface when an announcement is signalled :frowning: ), then it blocks everything else out. In the future, you could also use the same interface to control service linking LA flag toggling.... in.. the... future...
@nickpiggott could you prepare me an example mux file I could add to the doc/ folder that contains the correct settings for EPG?
Looking around gr-recipes I found zeromq.lwr which read in combination with
pybombs config as go as through as you like, then go to source by default.
pybombs config satisfy_order and packagers
I've just noticed something wrong in the TCP connection teardown for the TCP output. I'll be investigating after lunch.
I hope to take this into "next" soon.
Hi - the RadioDNS->ODR bridge writes a static file for the EPG. We're just assuming the mux reads that in and loops around the file. We don't use FIFO, as the app doesn't continuously create packets. I'll take to @magicbadger about refactoring the code to run continuously producing packets.
Anybody interested in hacking on DMB support?
unsupported dist: options get routed to the default image. Drops to Precise apparently
travis-ci/travis-ci#6367
From https://travis-ci.org/Opendigitalradio/dabtools/jobs/196112510 - 'Build dist: xenial'
I don't know what to believe now :-)
Could you guys have a look at what is in elgroj's fork? It looks he did some work on the signal processing there https://github.com/elgroj/dabtools/tree/tuningStability
I'd love to have a debian stable Travis-CI too.
