Re: BlueDV for Android and ThumbDv
Code is not finished yet. Have to remove my call from code.. Everything is hard coded now. When done, I will post here.
Please understand that I can not support this version. BlueDV is all made in my private time. Greets, David

Re: Special Discount on Purchase of Multiple ThumbDV

Is there documentation online describing how to implement a project using the Thumbdv to handle transcoding? I understand how to setup the xlx reflector and have been running Pidv server for a while because of the great info found on the Nwdigital radio site.
Thanks k6fed

Re: Special Discount on Purchase of Multiple ThumbDV
Here is the documentation to setup ambed for the XLX reflector - https://github.com/LX3JL/xlxd/tree/master/ambed Note: New ThumbDVs have the Product Description set to ThumbDV and a tested pull has been submitted for inclusion. Do you need information beyond this?

Re: Special Discount on Purchase of Multiple ThumbDV
In the ambed documentation it talks about using a FTDI program to change the Product Description on the ThumbDV. This is a Windows program and can be used. An open source Linux program also works and can be found at https://github.com/richarde Do not change the PID or VID (Product ID and Vendor ID) as that is what the OS uses to load the right driver. You can change the Product Description and Manufacturer. Until the mainline code puts in the pull request, building ambed from github source, you will need to edit the source (just 2 lines) before compiling so it will recognize the ThumbDV Product Description. Factory units will have Manufacturer: NW Digital Radio MM/YY (where MM/YY is the production date, leave off for your ThumbDV) Product: ThumbDV John D. Hays Edmonds, WA K7VE

Thanks for the quick response. The PIDV and Thumbdv are great products. The pidv works great as a remote server with the Bluedv client.

Re: Special Discount on Purchase of Multiple ThumbDV
Another quick note: PiDV is not supported by ambed (It only uses 460800 baud and can't get the Product Description) Very Old ThumbDVs that run at 230400 baud will not work with ambed (though with some hacking of the software they might) If your ThumbDV is a model 'A' (runs at 460800 baud) it should work fine, and you do need 2 or more to use ambed as a transcoder.

ambeserver on Raspian Jessie with ThumbDV locks BlueDV on receive after having changed UDP Port
TG9AOR
Hello to all. I added the CompassLinux repository(alder main) to my pi, installed ambeserver and it worked as expected when accesed from wherever, very nice to operate like this. I also have on this pi a DVMega and a DVAP so the Mega runs C4FM Mode and the DVAP DSTAR. I was helping out another Operator set up his BlueDV for AMBE operation, using his ThumbDV locally on his machine. Since I sent him a picture of my AMBE settings, I wanted to change my port after the fact and so I did, and restarted the service afterwards, also updated the firewall rules to allow the connections on my new designated port. But after doing this my system does not decode at all. I connect to the server, and if I send a tx on DMR to the Parot(9990 P) as soon as it comes back the status on the bottom changes from Connected to AMBEserver to Reconnecting to AMBEserver. If I run sudo systems ambeserver@... it says running and it says it is listening. I do not know if ambeserver generates a log, for analysis. I have tried to apt-get autoremove and install it but it all went to this state after having changed the port number. It happens as well on DSTAR< I tried it on REF001E. I am planning on wiping it all and redo everything, just want to know what I did wrong to avoid the mistake. 73 de TG9AOR

Re: ambeserver on Raspian Jessie with ThumbDV locks BlueDV on receive after having changed UDP Port
Steven Blackford
Joe, I'm guessing you're running this with a ThumbDV. I'd stop the ambe service, unplug the ThumbDV, plug it back in, and re-start the ambe service. I've noticed the issue w/ the ThumbDV before. I normally run my AMBE service with a PIDV. If I have it setup on a PI, I've had to power off the PI, & power it back up. I never have that issue on my ODroid C1 though with the PIDV on it. Hope things are going well! It's been a while & I've missed you a few times on TG 3137. Hope to catch up with you soon! 73 de K4SQI! Steve, K4SQI

Re: ambeserver on Raspian Jessie with ThumbDV locks BlueDV on receive after having changed UDP Port
Test your using ambeserver using the ambesocktest -- https://nw-digital-radio.groups.io/g/ambe/wiki/AMBEserver-Addendum#Testing-the-AMBEserver (Edit the port number in the script) -- If it passes that test, the server is running properly on the designated port. All other functions are within the calling program, eg BlueDV or Buster or ...

I haven’t yet loaded High Sierra on my development Mac yet, so I can’t comment much. It’s upgrading now and I’ll take a look when I can.

Re: Buster MacOs 10.13
Jeremy McDermond <mcdermj@...>
In cursory tests, I cannot reproduce it here. Buster does log a lot of information to the “Console” application in the /Applications/Utilities directory. You can take a look there to see if maybe it’s dumping out something interesting that I can look at for you.

Re: ambeserver on Raspian Jessie with ThumbDV locks BlueDV on receive after having changed UDP Port
TG9AOR
OK Steve, I will do this. I will start over because I have installed and auto removed the ambeserver a couple of times now, and so in order to go on a clean sheet I will reinstall, and will keep this in my notes. I was in LA while this happened and my setup back home haha. But I certainly appreciate the tip.
Hope to talk to you soon! 73 de TG9AOR

Thank you John, will do. BTW is the Raspberry Pi3 a good hardware solution for running ambed? Y plan to use two transcoding channels with ThumbDVs.
Thank you and 73 TG9AOR
