Re: [wsjt-devel] WSJTX and QT don't list IC-7300 audio devices
Solved! The symptoms were - IC-7300 audio devices (Burr Brown CODEC) not listed in WSJTX under Ubuntu 20.04 - Ubuntu 20.04 running in Virtualbox on same machine showed the IC7300 autio devices just fine and worked. - QT audio test program also failed to show the IC-7300 audio devices So, the problem is that some installed audio thing seemed to be screwing up QT. After a few months of thinking and delaying, I finally got around to trying to fix the problem. - Remove Jack package and all it's dependencies - Remove other unused audio programs and libraries. - Didn't fix - Reboot, Didn't fix Took a look at apt autoremove package list and there were a _lot_. - sudo apt autoremove - PROBLEM FIXED! It's interesting that package autoremove was necessary I have no idea which of the dozens of packages actually caused the problem. jeff, wa1hco On Wed, Dec 29, 2021 at 4:57 PM jeff millar wrote: > I have more information about WSJTX IC-7300 audio device missing. > > WSJTX running on my Desktop Ubuntu 20.04 does not list the IC-7300 audio > devices named "Burr-Brown from TI Audio CODEC" > > But an Unbuntu 20.04 VM under VirtualBox running on the *same machine* > can see the Burr-Brown devices and works fine. > > My guess is that the WSJTX call to QT's availableDevices() function is > either setting the requested mode to an odd value or my Desktop Ubuntu is > configuring the ports to an odd value. > > This is a setup problem because I've used WSJTX on this computer for > years.

Re: [wsjt-devel] WSJTX and QT don't list IC-7300 audio devices
I have more information about WSJTX IC-7300 audio device missing. WSJTX running on my Desktop Ubuntu 20.04 does not list the IC-7300 audio devices named "Burr-Brown from TI Audio CODEC" But an Unbuntu 20.04 VM under VirtualBox running on the *same machine* can see the Burr-Brown devices and works fine. My guess is that the WSJTX call to QT's availableDevices() function is either setting the requested mode to an odd value or my Desktop Ubuntu is configuring the ports to an odd value. This is a setup problem because I've used WSJTX on this computer for years. But what is the oddball setup that is causing this? Any ideas? I would love to learn how to add printf() or use a debugger on WSJTX if someone can help ne with that. jeff, wa1hco On Tue, Dec 28, 2021 at 2:11 PM jeff millar wrote: > Hello all, > > I'm dead the water here.

Re: [wsjt-devel] WSJTX and QT don't list IC-7300 audio devices
Hi Claude, Thanks for the reply. The PulseAudio tool for viewing devices shows the 7300 audio interface in the form you showed $ pactl list | grep Name | grep Burr Name: alsa_output.usb-Burr-Brown_from_TI_USB_Audio_CODEC-00.analog-stereo Name: alsa_output.usb-Burr-Brown_from_TI_USB_Audio_CODEC-00.analog-stereo.monitor Name: alsa_input.usb-Burr-Brown_from_TI_USB_Audio_CODEC-00.analog-stereo Name: alsa_card.usb-Burr-Brown_from_TI_USB_Audio_CODEC-00 The question is, Why can't WSJTX see the same thing? jeff, wa1hci On Wed, Dec 29, 2021 at 5:25 AM Claude Frantz via wsjt-devel < wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> wrote: > On 12/28/21 8:11 PM, jeff millar via wsjt-devel wrote: > > Hi Jeff and all, > > > The problem is that File/Settings/Audio Input and Output no longer list > the > > IC-7300 audio devices.

As Bill has explained, WSJTX simply uses the enumeration made available at the Qt5 interface. Ensure that you select the right port on pavucontrol and not the ports related to the PC internal soundcard. Verify that the ports are not muted. Verify that the IC-7300 is configured to use the soundcard and not the analogue ports.

[wsjt-devel] WSJTX and QT don't list IC-7300 audio devices
Hello all, I'm dead the water here. WSJTX 2.5.3 on Ubuntu 20.04. Tried with both 2.5.3.deb and compiled from source. Compiling 2.5.3 from source worked the first try! thanks to all those that made it happend. The problem is that File/Settings/Audio Input and Output no longer list the IC-7300 audio devices. They should be Burr-Brown_from_TI_USB_Audio_CODEC. but they are not in the list. This happened once before a few months back and I don't know how it fixed itself. Linux can see the devices as PCM-2901, the pactl tool can list the Burr-Brown codec, so this problem seems to be isolated to the way WSJTX uses QT. The receive decode works fine with the default audio device set in Linux to PCM-2901 (the other name for the IC-7300) Can't set any of audio devices to work with transmit, "requested setting not available". I've read the source code as best I can and it seems that QAudio availableDevices() is not including the ALSA Burr-Brown CODEC in the list. Although the command $pactl list | grep Name | grep Burr shows the devices. If someone knows of a magic fix I'll take it. If not, can someone help me set up for debugging the source. I'm ok with C but need help setting up a debug environment with the WSJTX source tree. Anyone have a workspace for VSCODE??? thanks, jeff, wa1hco ___ wsjt-devel mailing list wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel
