Hi, 
You may check in the docs folder in the GitHub page under usage-manual, Handling flowgraphs.txt and types of blocks.txt files until someone who is expert answer your questions. 
Hope that helps. 
Thanks..

I've gone through the Python tutorial but have some questions. If I use the "input" to the block, how many samples are processed each time the Python code is called? Does it pass a byte, float, complex, vector, etc... on at a time? Does it work on each sample or can you send it an array? Is the Python in/out synchronized with the data stream?
Thanks...Tom

Subject: [GRCon'23] Keynotes, Workshops, Sponsors: It's all coming
    together!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed

Dear Community,

GNU Radio Conference 2023 is coming closer! (It takes place starting
Sep. 5 in Tempe, Arizona, USA. Tickets happen to be $100 cheaper until
2023-08-18 [0].)

== Keynotes ==

The Conference Organizers are quite happy to see an excellent list of
Keynote speakers[1] come together for the four conference days:

With Lindy Elkins-Tanton, we have been able to secure the NASA Principal
Investigator for the Psyche Mission, and an all-around impressive
scientist and research leader on the formation of rocky planets. If
being elected into the National Academy of Sciences is not enough
credit: there's an asteroid named after her.
On the technical and historical side, I'm personally looking forward to
seeing Eric Blossom again: he, as the first head of architecture, has
been formative to the things that make GNU Radio what it is. Currently,
he's working on high-speed satellite radios.
Don't forget that SDR involves, famously, not only software, but also
radio. Constantine Balanis' contributions to the field of radio
technology are not limited to his authorship of the standard textbook on
antennas – he's been at the forefront of EM simulation and RF channel
theory and thus set many cornerstones for wireless communications and
sensing applications everywhere.
Of course, if we invite GNU Radio's history, we should also be inviting
someone working on the future of GNU Radio: That'd be Ralph Steinhagen,
head developer for systems integration at FAIR, one of the largest and
technically most advanced particle accelerators, who, together with his
team, is putting in all the work to bring a shared vision of GNU Radio
4.0 to life.

== Workshops ==

But the value of a conference is not found exclusively in the
higher-profile talks, but also in the ways that it enables people to
actually have a closer look at things, together. Workshops [2] have been
a staple of GRCon's popularity for years, and this year is no exception
with a total count of 10 workshops, covering topics from basic DSP, over
GNU Radio use, transceiver design, embedded Linux-based SDR development,
and FPGA usage on SDR devices, to FOSS 5G network setup with srsRAN.

== Sponsors ==

As you might guess, organizing all this takes effort – and executing
takes a lot of funds. Hence, we're very glad we've found sponsors [3]
for this year's GRCon. Next to a few industry-standard names, it's
especially nice to see breakthrough startups and research organizations
take up the chance to present themselves to the GNU Radio audience. You
can, when buying tickets [0], directly choose a Patron Ticket, which
gives you a cheap opportunity to place your logo on the GRCon website;
if that's what you want to do, or if you care for other sponsorship
packages, don't hesitate to reach out to sponsor@gnuradio.org.

So, for now: I'm looking forward to seeing you there!

Hi Tom,

You are assuming the "delay" input of the Delay block was sample-synchronous – it's not!
Messages are asynchronous to samples by design. Repeating the same message hence doesn't
do what you want:
What you're trying to do, keep the delay constant for 1023 samples, then change it, keep
it constant… but that would require that the delay block "waits" for a new message for
every sample it processes. It doesn't (and it can't).

I think in your situation, learning how to write a Python (or C++, if that's easier for
you) block to do in one place what you want to happen here would be the only solution –
and not too hard.

Best regards,
Marcus

Hi Sowji,

according to the text you've replied to:

> than "Re: Contents of Discuss-gnuradio digest..."

I changed the subject line to actually describe the contents of your email. Please get in
the habit of doing that :)

Anyways, as you notice, this is an error related to UHD not finding any USRP devices.
Since we don't know which device you have, we can't help you with that. But to expedite a
solution: Guides to this are found in dozens of corners on the internet, for example


Best,

Marcus
