Wonderful ! Installed it on Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS. It doesn't add an icon to the Applications button so you have to go to /opt/sdrconnect and manually run SDRconnect. I also had no sound output until I opened a third VRX which started sound working for me. I am sure these bugs will soon be fixed. Thank you SDRplay for finally releasing this software 🙂 EDIT: to enable sound on a single RX you have to change Sound setting in the dropdown menu from default to sysdefault (ALSA).
Hello...i have installed sdrconnect on my Ubuntu but how to for start it?. i have /opt/sdrconnect but i dont know how start it...thank for reply....stefano
I can't see this video and it goes way too fast for me to comprehend. I'm not good with Linux. Is there text instructions somewhere? That would make it so much easier or even better put it into the raspberry repository so we can just sudo apt install.
download what file? there is no direct link in the description that i can see. it would be helpful to know what RPi software to download as well@@SDRplayRSP
"Built in support for all model RSPs except the original RSP1" Is it a shame that there is no RSP1 support for SDRconnect? I bought it officially in 2016 and I enjoy using it to this day. This is just disrespect for your customers. How can I work in SDRconnect with my RSP1? Perhaps there are some software tools, what would it work? I use Windovs 11
I have just installed the software on my M1 Mac (Mac os Ventura 13.5) so far seems to working ok. Silly questioin where do I find the option for direct frequency entry via the keyboard. I hover my mouse pointer over the frequency, I can move frequency up and down with a left or right button click of the mouse. It looks like there is no option to type in the frequency I want there using the number keys. Is this option enabled, or am I missing somthing realy simple, Please could you help point me in the right direction? have been sdruno for a very long time so the gui of Sdrconnect is straight forward to me. I know it's currently in development it works good, looks good, runs smoothly with no stuttering on the audio, and easy to use on the M1 Mac. I would be greatful if you coud help, Keep up the good work! 73 de M3SNU.
You find the gui for direct entry the same place you find being able to see your mode or change it without going into drill down menus.... in another piece of software, this is rubbish.
This is a very good tutorial. The installation seemed to work correctly. I have the SDR connect Icon in my "Other" start-up folder. However, the program won't launch. I am running Ubuntu Mate 20.04, with RSP1A. Any help would be appreciated. 73's De ka1sbn
Does not work for me, followed all the instructions, all installed fine as per this video, no error messages. When I try to run it I get the line "bash:/opt/sdrconnect/SDRconnect: cannot execute: required file not found" All the folders and SDRconnect file are present in the correct place and I've added the path to bashrc. Given up now. Instructions do not work.

I plugged my new RSP1B into my desktop before installing the SDRConnect software because I did not know ahead of time that was the wrong procedure. Now SDRConnect does not find the RSP1B. Does anybody know how to fix this? I'm thinking of installing SDR Uno and doing it right. Is that going to work now that I've already allowed the device to be installed by Windows when I plugged it in the first time?
Go to device manager and right click on the device and uninstall. Then run the installer again. If you still have problems come to the Help Centre and follow through to raise a support ticket and SDRplay will give you one to one help: www.sdrplay.com/help/

Have got it running on a Pi4 in server mode. All fine! Took a while to find out that I had to install the 64bit OS version.

I suspect Linux installation is similar to the Raspberry Pi, but expected this video to at least have it included. Disappointing.
not similar, exactly the same!
