Alsa loopback not working


 

Hi all,

In order to test if I can play / capture audio tru the alsa loopback, I just opened audacity and tried to capture... nothing. Audio comes out nicely over the gtk ui, and also over the web ui. Any hints of what it can be? I did not change the .asoundrc [1], nor nothing else. It is possible that the audio was too low? I was testing without antenna... with IF 100... (I could hear the hiss) the audio that goes to the loopback is after processing or before? Which .c file is responsible for doing this copy of the audio samples between wolfram and loopback device?

Cheers,
Rafael

If the device is in use by the sbitx software, could if be used on another application??

For example, to use wsjtx I have to shutdown fldigi for it to work.?
Let me know if I'm wrong.

Rafael,
Check that fldigi is showing the spectrum within its own window. If it is, the loopback is working.
You can check the fldigi settings of audio card to see how it configured.

My bad. The audio was too low, I just changed the waterfall settings in fldigi and started seeing it. Yay, working! Will connect to antenna today. When using HEAD git in the sBitx v1 (dev edition), should I do any change to the software, or I can just use without bothering?

Btw, is there currently a way to pass the "full band" to the loopback? (how should I call the "full band" with relation to the frequency set over the I2C? USB with regards to the dial frequency set?)

Cheers! sBitx rocks!
