Martin,

Thanks for the report. I think that I was able to track down all of
these issues and resolve them. I've pushed the fixes to master/next.
When you get a chance, please rerun the tests and let me know if
anything else fails.

Thanks!

Tom

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Block key "rtl2832_source" not found in Platform

2012-06-23 Thread Michael Dickens
Hi Giulio - It looks like GNU Radio is trying to mix and match between Python 
2.6 and 2.7.  This, in general, is not advisable; try to coerce GNU Radio into 
using one or the other.  Fix that first, then see if there's still an issue.  
If so, maybe someone with knowledge of the "rtl2832_source" can help.  Good 
luck! - MLD

[Discuss-gnuradio] question about gr_message

2012-06-23 Thread Stephen

Hi,

I have a question about gr_message. Does gr_message work with anything
but strings? I see where a call to gr_make_message_from_string copies
the string into the message but I don't see anything done with arg1 or
arg2. The same for just creating a message and passing in arg1 and arg2.
I don't see them ever put into the message. Am I not understanding
something or are strings the only message data that works?

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Gnuradio Screencast for Absolute Beginners

2012-06-23 Thread sumitstop

Hi Community, 

I have just uploaded some more videos on my channel. They are about basic
filtering and some beginners concept about sampling and re-sampling. 

Here are the links :

GNURADIO: GNURADIO-COMPANION part-5 (Basic filtering) 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yc3K3bUxPW8&feature=plcp 

GNURADIO: GNURADIO-COMPANION part-6-1 (Significance of sampling rate in

GNURADIO: GNURADIO-COMPANION part-6-2 (Significance of sampling rate in
simulations contd.) 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dvw-B_CGEg&feature=plcp

I am sorry for the disturbing audio quality. My sound card is picking some
noise even after I am opting for mute. Please mute the audio while watching
the screencasts :)

More screencasts will be up very soon.
:working:

 Hi Community,

 I have uploaded screencast of some very basic things for the
 beginners in
 gnuradio like installing gnuradio, finding common examples of usrp,
 uhd,
 utilities etc. Also getting information about usrp's /
 daughterboards,
 antennas, burning SD card etc.

 Here is the link

 Although these things are given in enough detail on gnuradio

gr_message is basically just a binary blob (aka a string) and like 2 or
3 random integers. The scope plotter makes use of arg1 and arg2 for
example, so its really up to the implementation to interpret the blob
and the args. I suspect the args were added when the author got sick of
parsing integers out of the blob. :-)

If you want something more structured than a simple blob, gnuradio has
basically replaced the need for gr_message with the PMT library and the
the gr_msg_queue with the gruel::msg_queue. Unfortunately, all of the
existing code (basically wx gui and those horrid benchmark examples)
does not use the new stuff.

See relevant headers here:
http://gnuradio.org/cgit/gnuradio.git/tree/gruel/src/include/gruel/pmt.h
http://gnuradio.org/cgit/gnuradio.git/tree/gruel/src/include/gruel/msg_queue.h

And if you want something even *more* structured, here is a formal
message passing API implemented at the gnuradio block level with PMTs:
