While playing with BATC Portsdown I decided to run it on my ubuntu linux to get rid of Minitiouner Windows software (I don't have a proper M$ windows setup)...
It worked like a charm.. Thanks to all developers..
Then I decided to run the programs on my SF8008 to get rid of auto tune and not being anle to tune to weak signals.... And it went flawlesly as well.. As both raspberry pi and SF8008 has similar ARM MCUs I even didn't need to re-compile tha packets.
Steps to get Minitouner and SF8008 working together :
1) Copy longmynd folder from your raspberry portsdown installation to SF8008
2) Run the longmynd to stream a UDP stream and also a local ts stream (e.g. for QO-100 beacon with a 9362500 Khz IF LNB)
./longmynd -i 192.168.1.4 1234 -s longmynd_status_fifo -p h -r -1 -S 0.5 1129055 1500
(don't forget to change the frequency for your setup, e.g. for 9750MHz IF)
3) 192.168.1.4 is my PC IP.. with VLC I can watch the stream.. also on the device I prepared a symlink to longmynd_main_ts as a ts file to watch it lcoally.. or install vlc plugin.. or IPTV plugin.. whichever you prefer..
What can be added :
- easy remoting (web interface or pc software to send channel/frequency/symbolrate)
- a simple application to select channel
- a similar Interface to Minitouner Windows on SF8008
Any comments are welcome..
