DAB Board for RPI compatibility with qt-dab

[happyfewNL]

Hi Jan,
Here's also Jan from the Netherlands....

I've got a question about a HAT for RPI called DABBoard, it's developed by ugreen.eu .
Have you ever heard of this board and do you have any idea if this would be compatible with qt-dab?

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Groetjes, Jan

Hi Jan I am not familiar with that board, but I just sent an email to them for some more information, always interesting! If they send me some data what the tuner/DA converter is about, I know more and let you know best jan Op do 16 dec. 2021 om 14:28 schreef happyfewNL ***@***.***>:

Hi,
I got this reply from DABBoard:

Hi,

I don't know qt-dab good enough. But qt-dab is a SDR, which means it is doing the heavy lifting of DAB decoding in software.

The DABBoard instead is using the Si468x chip, which is doing the decoding on the hardware.

Despite this, it is probably possible to change qt-dab in order to get its data from the Si468x, so basically you would mostly use only the GUI from qt-dab.

But I don't know if that makes too much sense because qt-dab's main feature seems to be to show the decoding.

I got a similar anwer, depending on the interface to the chip it may be worthwhile to create an interface Op vr 17 dec. 2021 om 11:24 schreef happyfewNL ***@***.***>:

Just a hin, Jan, I know own such a ugreen DABboard, too. But let me first try to get existing software running. The shipped software is buggy and does not understand service names with special characters (Österreich).

Great. I'm curious what your experience will be. If I can do anything to help, please let me know. Thanks, Jan 3 jul. 2023 20:38:29 andimik ***@***.***>:
