7 inch display not big enough
Hello Tommy,
I'm not really sure what to do about this, I've just tried adding a scrollbar to the panel but it caused a too many problems.
I'll keep on it and see where I get.
7 inch display not big enough
I've just pushed an update which splits the tool bar into two, you can also move it them around now. I tried it at 800x600 and it seems to work OK.
Hope that helps
Better
Hi again and thanks for your effort.
First screen shows a little more, still missing from middle of the "Plot" button, but the "Stop" button is not visible.
But, after first scan, if I go to "full screen" via F11 and back THEN I get the buttons in 2-lines and now everything is
visible.
I hope I made it clear... Thanks again.
/ regards Tommy
Better
Think I've got it this time, I managed to miss out one line!
If you find the plot is small, you can drag the toolbars so they float above the main window if this helps.
Glad I could help and thanks for getting back to me.
7 inch OK now.
Hi, now it's OK from start on 7-inch display.
Maybe I try the 2.8-inch Adafruit display later.
/ thanks / regards Tommy
7 inch OK now.
Good, glad it works.
You'll have trouble with the 2.8" display - the display has to be at least about 570 pixels wide to fit the tool bars.
Windows 7 Install
Hi
Afew points the windows packages o0n source forge don't install because the MSVCR71.DLL is missing on windows 7 and needs to be installed.
I tried a manual install and am getting an error installing the rtlldr package the error is as follows: -

Windows 7 Install
Hello,
You could try installing .NET 1.1 then running the installer again, or the binary releases maybe easier.
Driver for Funcube Pro +
Even though Zadig finds my dongle, and appears to run, I cannot get rtl_test to find any devices.
I have tried all three driver options in Zadig. Any ideas? PC is Win 7 Pro 64 with 8G RAM and i7
I should add that the radio
I should add that the radio works fine with SDR# and other similar packages.
I should add that the radio
rtl_test and RTLSDR Scanner only support RTLSDR dongles unfortunately.
I'd like to add more to it but it's just a case of getting my hands on them...

Use gentoo linux. Have three versions of python installed:
Available Python interpreters, in order of preference:
[1] python3.5
[2] python3.4 (fallback)
[3] python2.7 (fallback)
I suspect that the syntax problem is a python version problem. If you concur is there a way to specify which version to use.
Also I just git cloned and there seems to be no installation needed. So I run it from the git clone dir.
Thanks,

It's coded for Python 2.7 and as you suspect the software can be run from cloned directory.
Try using:
python2.7 rtlsdr_scan.py
I think that should work but I haven't tested it.
This worked. Of the three
This worked. Of the three python versions, 3.5 is the default.

RTLSDR Scanner
I love the program on the Win 7 PC where I got it to work. Spent many hours trying to install it on 3 different Win 8 PC. Read the problem FAQs, tried all the different installs, got various different error messages, had the install stop Windows Explorer running several times and had to Google how to fix that. Finally just gave up trying to install what otherwise is an extremely nice program on other PCs.
RTLSDR Scanner
Thanks very much, I'm glad you like it.
Without knowing what the error messages were I can't really help you with the installer.
The preferred option now is to use the stand-alone application instead as it doesn't require any dependencies apart from the Visual C++ Redistributable (see link). In theory there is less to go wrong with this, hopefully you'll have more luck with it.
Is RTLSDR Scanner available for Android?
Are there any plans to port this to Android?
Thanks!
Is RTLSDR Scanner available for Android?
I've been working on one here and there but haven't made a great deal of progress. I'll need to modify the RTLSDR driver to produce more defined data for the app, at the moment it's hard to synchronise a chunk of data with a particular frequency without some confusion in the spectrum when tuning.
I haven't given up but don't expect anything soon.
info for macport install
Hi all,
This instruction "sudo port install py-pipsudo" must be replaced by "sudo port install py27-pip" and "sudo port select --set pip pip27"
;-)

Ooops!
Looks like I missed an new line in the middle of that. I've also updated it for the py27-pip.
Thanks

P.S: The dongle is found by the system (Mac OS X) and works well under gqrx.
program is correctly installed but not found by python
Hi,
Can I just check how you are trying to run it? It should be started using:
python -m rtlsdr_scanner
Hi,
Hi,
Yes your program is started with this command as you have specified in your document ;-)
Without doing anything (except that my MacBook has been restarted by my son), I've a new error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
python -d -m rtlsdr_scanner "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/rtlsdr_scanner/__main__.py", line 36, in
import rtlsdr # @UnusedImport

from .librtlsdr import librtlsdr
File "rtlsdr/librtlsdr.py", line 52, in
f = librtlsdr.rtlsdr_get_device_count
In your opinion, what append (knowing that the dongle is snowed by the OS )?
In advance many thanks, Bruno.
Hi,
Hello,
It might be due to some outdated software, try running the following commands:
sudo port selfupdate
sudo port upgrade outdated
Please Help With OSX install
The install seemed to go OK until I tried to run the "python -m rtlsdr_scanner" command. I'm a hardware person (retired) so I am not very experience on the software side. any help will be greatly appreciated! Here is the error message I get:
[Macintosh:~] nelsonex% python -m rtlsdr_scanner
Import error: dlopen(/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_io.so, 2): Symbol not found: __PyCodecInfo_GetIncrementalDecoder

Expected in: flat namespace
in /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_io.so
Please Help With OSX install
I think it's worth making sure the software is up to date, try:
sudo port selfupdate
sudo port upgrade outdated
Please Help With OSX install
Thanks Al,
I had already run those update commands, but to no avail.
Please Help With OSX install
Another command to try is:
hash -r python
OK, I repeated the "hash -r
OK, I repeated the "hash -r python" but now I get:
[Macintosh:~] nelsonex% python -m rtlsdr_scanner
[Macintosh:~] nelsonex%
Thanks Again
OK, I repeated the "hash -r
That error happens when it can't find the RTLSDR driver. See if this command works:
rtl_test
RTLSDR driver found
rtl_test does work:
[Macintosh:~/Downloads/RTLSDR-Scanner-1.2.2] nelsonex%...
RTLSDR driver found
I'm a bit stumped by that; the driver is present but the pyrtlsdr library doesn't seem to find it.
Maybe it's worth opening up an issue? If you do mention that you installed the driver using MacPorts, the pyrtlsdr library using pip and include the relevant part of the error message:
RTLSDR driver found
It's also possible that you have another driver on you system that's compiled to a different architecture (32 vs 64 bits). Had you previously installed the RTLSDR driver anywhere?
Install on MacOS 10.7...ImportError: dlopen & symbol no found
I'm having a similar problem..started with a fresh install of MacPorts and all the dependencies seemed to install fine, but when i issue the 'python -m rtlsdr_scanner' command I get what looks like the same error Nelson ran into re:
ImportError: dlopen(/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/PIL/_imaging.so, 2): Symbol not found:___sincos_stret.
I've run selfupdate, etc...any suggestions would be appreciated!

SDR install for Ubuntu
when trying to install on my Pi 3 running Ubuntu I get this message:
"Package python-wxgtk2.8 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'python-wxgtk2.8' has no installation candidate"
is it me or is therer a fix?
please help
SDR install for Ubuntu
It looks like the wxPython package has been recently updated to version 3.0, this command should get things working:
sudo apt-get install python-wxgtk3.0
I've just updated the installation instructions with this.
Thanks for bring it to my attention - it could have been quite a while before I noticed!
Hello, the program is

Would you please add the x86 32bit executable also in releases? The small installer does not install anything, the sources files are missing something and no idea how to get it working.
The old version rtlsdr_scan-windows-32bit_v1.0.22180.60082.exe

Unable to run under Raspberry Pi 2 Jessie
Hey. All dependencies are installed properly I checked it by running .......diag.py file. rtlsdr_scanner is properly installed without any error using setup.py install command. Now when I run pythom -m rtlsdt_scanner command it waits and then throw import error that No module named Pandas.
Do I have to install pandas as well for python2.7 ????

rtlsdr_scanner.py not included?
I downloaded rtlsdr-scanner from Github, ran "setup.py build", and when I go to the build folder, rtlsdr_scanner.py isn't there. When I run rtlsdr_scan_diag.py, everything checks out and it says no problems found, but I cant run the software because rtlsdr_scanner.py just isn't there. I even installed it using pip from the instructions on this page and it's the same issue, just missing that one file.
Is there a step I forgot or something? This seems like a great program but it's been a pain to install. I'm running it on DragonOS if that makes any difference
On Linux Debian 10 the
On Linux Debian 10 the installation is quite simplified,
- Open Synaptic Package Manager
- install python-pip
- in the terminal: $ sudo pip install -U rtlsdr_scanner
-------- we run the program from the terminal -----------
- $ python -m rtlsdr_scanner
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
you can also make a shortcut to make the program visible in the menu
greetings, it works for me . . .
