Agreed this is weird. No immediate solution pops to my mind, but can you provide some more info: - Is this block part of a larger flow graph, or does this occur also when you isolate your block? - Is this code you can share? If so, can we see the OOT > The first resolution that is coming to mind would be to re-write my OOT > module to run with general_work, and manage the input buffer myself. > Does anybody see any issues with doing this as a work around/solution? There's no reason not to do that, but it would be a big surprise if that helped. After all, a sync_decimator is just a very thin wrapper around a gr::block. > good frame: https://www.dropbox.com/s/tma3qn5byismgha/good_frame.png > bad frame: https://www.dropbox.com/s/xgvcmlbgma14k0i/bad_frame.jpg > > > Thank you all in advance for the help, > > Michael Berman > > > > _______________________________________________ > Discuss-gnuradio mailing list > Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org > https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio > _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
