[Discuss-gnuradio] Tagged Stream Blocks with HackRF

Dear all,

I have problems to get the example "wifi_tx.grc" from gr-ieee802-11 [1]
to work with my HackRF device. In the example, I just replaced the USRP
sink with the osmocom sink and tried to run it. I always get underrun
errors:

I tried the above mentioned example with GNU Radio 3.7.11 and 3.7.9 on
two different computers with the same result. I also tried the latest
gr-osmosdr v0.1.4-91-gcf954948 version but without any luck. I'm also
using the latest firmware (2017.12.01) of my HackRF device.

I asked [2] Bastian Bloessel, the author of gr-ieee802-11, but it seems
like it is a general problems with tagged stream blocks and my HackRF
device. As he mentioned, I created a simple GNU radio file like the
following:

Message Strobe -> Random PDU -> PDU to Tagged Streams -> Osmocom Sink

Also in this example, I get a lot of underrun errors. Does anyone have
an idea what might be the problem?

GNU Radio Version: 3.7.11 and 3.7.9
HackRF Kernel Module: 4.10.13-1-ARCH
Gr-osmosdr: 0.1.4 and v0.1.4-91-gcf954948

Thanks in advance!

Cheers
