redsea changelog

0.20 (2021-03-08)

  • Recognize more ODAs and features - thanks Andreas Mikula
  • Add support for PTY names (group 10A)
  • Add partial support for DAB cross-referencing (ODA 0x0093)
  • Add support for raw broadcaster data in EON (variant 15)
  • Add support for transparent data channels (groups 5A, 5B)
  • Add support for fractional seconds in the rx timestamp format (%f).
  • Add support for TMC tuning info variant 8
  • Add buffer delay compensation to rx timestamps. Timestamps aim to represent the time the PCM samples were read in.
  • Place some JSON fields in the beginning of the line for easier visual inspection (pi, group, ps...)
  • Print raw ODA data if the application is not supported

0.19 (2020-04-06)

  • Add option --show-raw (-R) for including the raw group data as a hex string in the JSON output
  • Print usage help if there are non-option arguments on the command line
  • Fix uninitialized block error rate values on some systems
  • Update jsoncpp from 1.8.1 to 1.8.4 to fix some warnings

0.18 (2019-05-19)

  • Add support for loading multiple TMC location databases by specifying --loctable more than once.
  • Sample rate can also be specified as -r 171k instead of -r 171000.
  • Fix a crash if the input audio file couldn't be loaded.
  • Print usage help instead of error message when stdin is empty.
  • Speed up loading of TMC location database.
  • Improve block sync detection by ignoring spurious sync pulses.
  • Fine-tune filter bandwidths for better sensitivity, based on test runs.
  • At EOF, process the last partially received group.
  • Remove character codetables G1 and G2 since they don't appear in the latest RDS standard any more.
  • Clean up code to ensure maintainability. Redsea now requires a compiler that supports C++14.

0.17.1 (2018-06-08)

  • Fix: Return exit value 0 if --version or --help was requested
  • Don't open stdout for libsndfile unless --feed-through was specified, otherwise json can't be written (this may break the feed-through on Linux temporarily)

0.17.0 (2018-06-05)

  • Change the type of the JSON field for TMC message urgency, from integer (0, 1, 2) to string ("none", "U", "X")
  • Speed improvements by avoiding a few extraneous buffer copies internally

0.16.0 (2018-03-27)

  • Add support for multi-channel signals (--channels) - libsndfile is now a required dependency
  • Speed improvements:
    • By using a lookup table instead of sinf/cosf to generate the mix-down sinusoid
    • By only using one mix-down operation instead of two

0.15.0 (2018-01-31)

  • Add prog_item_number field containing the raw Program Item Number
  • Add partial_alt_kilohertz field containing an incomplete list of alternative frequencies when the --show-partial option is used
  • Add configure option --without-macports to disable directory checks when cross-compiling
  • Reduce write calls to output JSON stream using a stringstream (#56)
  • Remove an old shell script that launches rtl_fm - instead, there is a mention of rtl_fm usage in the readme and wiki

0.14.1 (2017-12-08)

  • Change the callsign object name to callsign_uncertain when a station's PI code begins with a 1
  • Fix UTC+14 getting marked as invalid (it's the time zone in Kiribati)
  • Fix syntax errors in schema

0.14.0 (2017-11-14)

  • Add support for decoding call sign letters from North American (RBDS) stations - activated by the -u switch

0.13.0 (2017-09-19)

  • Change the JSON structure in radiotext_plus: RT+ tags are now displayed as an array of objects with content-type and data:
"radiotext_plus":{
  "tags":[
    {"content-type":"item.artist",
     "data":"SeeB feat. Neev"},
    {"content-type":"item.title",
     "data":"Breathe"}
  ]
}
  • Change the way frequencies are displayed for better machine readability, from "frequency":"87.9 MHz" to "kilohertz":87900
  • Update jsoncpp from version 1.7.7 to 1.8.1

0.12.0 (2017-07-22)

  • Add support for time-of-demodulation timestamps (-t, --timestamp)
  • Add support for average block error rate (BLER) estimation (-E, --bler)
  • Change the long option for -b to --input-bits and fix the incorrect option in the usage help

0.11.0 (2017-04-17)

  • Add support for TMC alternative frequencies (tuning info variant 6)
  • Add support for TMC gap parameter and enhanced mode (3A group variant 1)
  • Change JSON schema for TMC: encryption_id is now under system_info
  • Change PLL bandwidth and lowpass cutoff frequency to improve noise performance
  • Change resampler anti-alias cutoff frequency to allow for lower sample rates
  • Fix missing zero-padding in PIN time string
  • Fix uninitialized PI field occasionally getting printed when the actual PI is missed
  • Fix some names not getting read properly from the location database
  • Fix grammar in some TMC event descriptions
  • Fix potentially uninitialized data printout when a type 6B group was not fully received
  • Fix potentially uninitialized RadioText+ tags when the group was not fully received
  • Fix spurious printouts of "version B" groups when the C' offset was not seen

0.10.0 (2017-04-03)
