Hi Martin, Consider the following flow graph. File Source ------->Throttle --------> Packet Encoder -------> Packet Decoder --------->File Sink 2 \
\---------------> File Sink 1 If the File Source loads a small-size image (around 50 kB), then the Packet Decoder works properly and File Sink 2 can open the image. However if the File Source load a bigger image or video (9 MB, for example), then the File Sink 2 achieve only more than 1 MB, and it can only display a part of the image/video. This surprised me. Then I added a File Sink right after the Packet Encoder (it's called File Sink 1) to see what happened after the Packet Encoder. If I let the Sample Rate = 32k, then the File Sink 1 receives more than 9 MB, but the File Sink 2 still receive more than 1 MB. If I let the Sample Rate be faster, 1M or 4M, then both the File Sink 1 and File Sink 2 only get more than 1MB. I wonder if something related to CPU got out of ability with high Sample Rate or Packet Encoder - Packet Decoder Best Regards, V-L Van-Ly Nguyen, Signals and Systems of Laboratory - SSL Faculty of Electronics and Telecommunications - FET University of Engineering and Technology - UET Vietnam National University, Hanoi - VNU Tel: (+84) 978 819 406 On Wed, Jul 30, 2014 at 9:19 PM, Martin Braun <martin.br...@ettus.com> wrote: > On 07/30/2014 04:14 PM, Nguyễn Văn Lý wrote: > > Thank you Tom, > > > > I found a note in documentation of the *Packet Encoder *block** where it > > declares that the *Packet Encoder* is for use with the gnuradio > > modulator blocks: GMSK, DPSK, QAM.
