Thanks again Marcus, Just to be clear, when you say I can stream at 56MS/s on a single channel, is it in sc16, sc12 or sc8? I tried on a different machine, with i7-8550U and 8 or 16GB of RAM. On Windows, I'm getting the same as before, ie lots of overflows, with rx_samples_to_file.exe. On Linux

Hi all, I'm still trying to reach 56MS/s on a B210 without (too many) overflows. I was told that sc12 used to work with the B210 but broke at some point. Can someone confirm and tell me what version I should try? On Windows, with all versions of 3.10.0.0, I get an error, whether I use sc12 or no

I've tried with 3.12.0.0, on both Windows and Linux. On Ubuntu 18.04, I can set num_recv_frames to what seems like any number without getting error. I tried 128, 256, even 512 and 1024. I do get better results than on Windows, but I'm still getting lots of overflows. I did try 3.13.0.0 on Window

SC12 actually gives me an error as soon as it starts streaming (with or without specifying num_recv_frames=44). Using the --continue option, I get tons of such errors: [ERROR] [STREAMER] The receive packet handler caught a value exception. ValueError: bad vrt header or packet fragment Error: Recei

I already tried smaller values, but not small enough. It seems the highest I can go is num_recv_frames=44. Anything higher gives me errors. At 40MS/s, without that parameter, I get 160 to 180 overflows over 20 seconds, while with num_recv_frames=44 I only get 20 to 30. This actually allows me to

Hi all, I'm still having issues with a B210 with sample rates greater than 28MS/s. At 28 I get a few overruns out of a million blocks of 1024 samples, but as I sample faster, the number of overruns grow fast. I have an AMD Ryzen 7 2700 (8 physical cores @ 3.2GHz), 16GB RAM, Gigabyte GA-AB350N, Wi

Hi all, I have a question concerning the timestamps while getting an overrun. I'm sampling at 28MS/s and reading blocks of 1024 samples. So it takes 36571 to 36572ns to sample each block. I try to read x blocks, calling receive for each block. I get something like block 93: correctly read 1024
