|
|
- Property System has been rewritten so that defaults on sdr behave as expected

|
|
- Reorganization of the frontend demodulator code
|
|
- Improve receiver load time by concatenating javascript assets
|
|
- Docker images migrated to Debian slim images; This was necessary to allow the use of function multiversioning in

|
|
**2020-02-08**
|
|
- Compression, resampling and filtering in the frontend have been rewritten in javascript, sdr.js has been removed
|
|
- Decoding of Pocsag modulation is now possible
|
|
- Removed the 3D waterfall since it had no real application and required ~1MB of javascript code to be downloaded
|
|
- Improved the frontend handling of the "too many users" scenario
|
|
- PSK63 digimode is now available (same decoding pipeline as PSK31, but with adopted parameters)
|
|
- The frequency can now be manipulated with the mousewheel, which should allow the user to tune more precise. The tuning
|
|
step size is determined by the digit the mouse cursor is hovering over.
|
|
- Clicking on the frequency now opens an input for direct frequency selection
|
|
- URL hashes have been fixed and improved: They are now updated automatically, so a shared URL will include frequency
|
|
and demodulator, which allows for improved sharing and linking.
|
|
- New daylight scheduler for background decoding, allows profiles to be selected by local sunrise / sunset times
|
|
- New devices supported:
|
|
- LimeSDR (`"type": "lime_sdr"`)
|
|
- PlutoSDR (`"type": "pluto_sdr"`)
|
|
- RTL_SDR via Soapy (`"type": "rtl_sdr_soapy"`) on special request to allow use of the direct sampling mode
|
|
|
|
**2020-01-04**
|
|
- The [owrx_connector](https://github.com/jketterl/owrx_connector) is now the default way of communicating with sdr
|
|
devices. The old sdr types have been replaced, all `_connector` suffixes on the type must be removed!
|
|
- The sources have been refactored, making it a lot easier to add support for other devices
|
|
- SDR device failure handling has been improved, including user feedback
|
|
- New devices supported:
|
|
- FiFiSDR (`"type": "fifi_sdr"`)
|
|
|
|
**2019-12-15**
|
|
- wsjt-x updated to 2.1.2
|
|
- The rtl_tcp compatibility mode of the owrx_connector is now configurable using the `rtltcp_compat` flag
|
|
|
|
**2019-12-10**
|
|
- added support for airspyhf devices (Airspy HF+ / Discovery)
|
|
|
|
**2019-12-05**
|
|
- explicit device filter for soapy devices for multi-device setups
|
|
|
|
**2019-12-03**
|
|
- compatibility fixes for safari browsers (ios and mac)
|
|
|
|
**2019-11-24**
|
|
- There is now a new way to interface with SDR hardware, .
|
|
They talk directly to the hardware (no rtl_sdr / rx_sdr necessary) and offer I/Q data on a socket, just like nmux
|
|
did before. They additionally offer a control socket that allows openwebrx to control the SDR parameters directly,
|
|
without the need for repeated restarts. This allows for quicker profile changes, and also reduces the risk of your
|
|
SDR hardware from failing during the switchover. See `config_webrx.py` for further information and instructions.
|
|
- Offset tuning using the `lfo_offset` has been reworked in a way that `center_freq` has to be set to the frequency you
|
|
actually want to listen to. If you're using an `lfo_offset` already, you will probably need to change its sign.
|
|
- `initial_squelch_level` can now be set on each profile.
|
|
- As usual, plenty of fixes and improvements.
|
|
|
|
**2019-10-27**
|
|
- Part of the frontend code has been reworked
|
|
- Audio buffer minimums have been completely stripped. As a result, you should get better latency. Unfortunately,
|
|
this also means there will be some skipping when audio starts.
|
|
- Now also supports AudioWorklets (for those browser that have it). The Raspberry Pi image has been updated to include
|
|
https due to the SecureContext requirement.
|
|
- Mousewheel controls for the receiver sliders
|
|
- Error handling for failed SDR devices
|
|
|
|
**2019-09-29**
|
|
- One of the most-requested features is finally coming to OpenWebRX: Bookmarks (sometimes also referred to as labels).
|
|
There's two kinds of bookmarks available:
|
|
- Serverside bookmarks that are set up by the receiver administrator. Check the file `bookmarks.json` for examples!
|
|
- Clientside bookmarks which every user can store for themselves. They are stored in the browser's localStorage.
|
|
- Some more bugs in the websocket handling have been fixed.
|
|
|
|
**2019-09-25**
|
|
- Automatic reporting of spots to [pskreporter](https://pskreporter.info/) is now possible. Please have a look at the
|
|
configuration on how to set it up.
|
|
- Websocket communication has been overhauled in large parts. It should now be more reliable, and failing connections
|
|
should now have no impact on other users.
|
|
- Profile scheduling allows to set up band-hopping if you are running background services.
|
|
- APRS now has the ability to show symbols on the map, if a corresponding symbol set has been installed. Check the
|
|
config!
|
|
- Debug logging has been disabled in a handful of modules, expect vastly reduced output on the shell.
|
|
|
|
**2019-09-13**
|
|
- New set of APRS-related features
|
|
- Decode Packet transmissions using [direwolf](https://github.com/wb2osz/direwolf) (1k2 only for now)
|
|
- APRS packets are mostly decoded and shown both in a new panel and on the map
|
|
- APRS is also available as a background service
|
|
- direwolfs I-gate functionality can be enabled, which allows your receiver to work as a receive-only I-gate for the
|
|
APRS network in the background
|
|
- Demodulation for background services has been optimized to use less total bandwidth, saving CPU
|
|
- More metrics have been added; they can be used together with collectd and its curl_json plugin for now, with some
|
|
limitations.
|
|
|
|
**2019-07-21**
|
|
- Latest Features:
|
|
- More WSJT-X modes have been added, including the new FT4 mode
|
|
- I started adding a bandplan feature, the first thing visible is the "dial" indicator that brings you right to the
|
|
dial frequency for digital modes
|
|
- fixed some bugs in the websocket communication which broke the map
|
|
|
|
**2019-07-13**
|
|
- Latest Features:
|
|
- FT8 Integration (using wsjt-x demodulators)
|
|
- New Map Feature that shows both decoded grid squares from FT8 and Locations decoded from YSF digital voice
|
|
- New Feature report that will show what functionality is available
|
|
- There's a new Raspbian SD Card image available (see below)
|
|
|
|
**2019-06-30**
|
|
- I have done some major rework on the openwebrx core, and I am planning to continue adding more features in the near
|
|
future. Please check this place for updates.
|
|
- My work has not been accepted into the upstream repository, so you will need to chose between my fork and the official
|
|
version.
|
|
- I have enabled the issue tracker on this project, so feel free to file bugs or suggest enhancements there!
|
|
- This version sports the following new and amazing features:
|
|
- Support of multiple SDR devices simultaneously
|
|
- Support for multiple profiles per SDR that allow the user to listen to different frequencies
|
|
- Support for digital voice decoding
|
|
- Feature detection that will disable functionality when dependencies are not available (if you're missing the digital
|
|
buttons, this is probably why)
|
|
- Raspbian SD Card Images and Docker builds available (see below)
|
|
- I am currently working on the feature set for a stable release, but you are more than welcome to test development
|
|
versions!
