Re: I'd like to get a wiki account.

Sorry for the delay, things came up and we actually were considering taking the wiki offline (sure you've heard of specific PHP bugs…) You should have gotten an email with a temporary password. If that didn't happen, please let me know!

Re: I'd like to get a wiki account.

Hi Marcus, thanks for the quick response. I promise to act responsibly. I won't use bots and won't write about things I do not fully understand. I contribute to the French-speaking Wikipedia with thousands of manual edits since 2006 without any trouble. I promise to start very slowly and take feedback into account.

Re: I'd like to get a wiki account.

Hi Christophe, As a general warning: Note that we do not welcome weakly or not supervised agentic changes. Don't add any of the things below if you don't *personally* understand the topics. Because of the bad ratio of AI spam to human reviewers, I have to ask, even if this sounds a bit hostile; please don't take this personally: Are you planning to do things in a way that guarantees you are acting responsible with the humans who have to review your changes?

Re: Dynamically streaming any stream in the flowgraph

Hi Thomas,

awesome to be hearing from you! This is definitely on top of my "read on the train later today" list :)

Cheers,

If I understand correctly, gr-ctrlport still needs to have configured all the tap locations ahead of time, and it provides just the latest, not a stream as such?

Looks like gnuradio 4 allows[1] it? I've not tried gnuradio 4 yet.

In the meantime, for my Rust framework, I added the remote ability to discover and stream arbitrary streams in a flowgraph. I also vibe coded having gnuradio export the interface. The code is just a throwaway demo, but a demo that does work.


Will this kind of thing be more natively supported in GNU Radio 4? The use cases for me are:
1. Detachable UI, so that the actual flowgraph can run headless.
2. Arbitrary inspection without needing to add taps to everything manually.
3. Though the "live" version holds on to an SDR, it allows teeing off the raw I/Q for development of the next version, without needing a second SDR.

My question, I guess, is if in general yes this is gr4 territory, and no nobody's interested in making it also work with gr3?

I'd like to get a wiki account.

I'd like to do some 'wikification'... - to create internal [[links]] between pages, - to add ==See also== sections and external <ref/>'s - to create and populate subcategories in [[:Category:Block Docs]], like the menu tree in the grc module chooser. - ...

Dynamically streaming any stream in the flowgraph

When working on a flowgraph I've found myself often wanting to add QT sinks of various sorts to almost every step in the process. This makes for a bit of a cluttered UI, and I always have to stop, add, restart. And then I have to go back and disable or delete them, when no longer needed.

Capture the Flag @ Ingeniería deMuestra

Hi everyone,

Just like every year since 2020, we're organizing a little CTF very much like GRCon's during an exposition event at our University (https://idm.uy/). Since it is completely online, we encourage people from all over to join and play. The only caveat is that it is in Spanish, but many English-speaking people have played it in the past. 

If you're interested, you may read all the details at our webpage https://ctf.idm.uy/ (or directly at https://eva.fing.edu.uy/course/view.php?id=1557&section=1#tabs-tree-start). You may register with a group of up to three people by sending us a mail to ctf@fing.edu.uy.

The deadline to register is Friday of next week, the CTF begins that night and runs for a week.

best
Federico
