Please join us on the #sigrok IRC channel on Freenode for a wiki account, you can upload a few device + PCB photos as well as a "lsusb -v" there. That would be a good starting point for trying to assess how complicated RX support might be. > In the meantime, I am going look into how to write decoders for the software. > I would never have thought to take it to the extra level of device specific > decoding.

Yep, higher-level stacked decoders are certainly very useful, we're happy to merge further contributed decoders and/or *.sr files for our sigrok-dumps repo (with interesting example traces).
