SDR# Display freeze

[Pete_uk]

Hi all

I've just got SDR# on Windows 10 running fine with audio coming out of the speakers. To decode POCSAG pagers I installed VBCable (virtual audio cable) to route the sound to a programme called PDW. The installation programme tried to install the VB Cable in 'Downloads' so I created a new folder in Programme Files and installed it there. Now when I press play in SDR# the display freezes with coloured streaks down the waterfall. Can anyone sugest anything?

I see that you have "Shift" box checked? Any reason for that? If you are running a simple SDR dongle there's no need to check the "Shift" box unless you are using something other than a dongle.

Does the display freeze when running SDR# alone? If so, you might want to run Zadig and try reinstalling the driver, then shut down, then turn computer back on.

Maybe try running SDRSharp.exe from an admin account.

"The installation programme tried to install the VB Cable in 'Downloads' so I created a new folder in Programme Files and installed it there."

This does not look right for a vb cable install, it is a sound driver that is installed-no?

Hi all, thanks for the replies.

I reinstalled the drivers for the dongle but no luck. After a day of booting back and fourth between my old Win 7 and Win 10 installations I opened SDR# only to find it works fine. The Virtual Audio Cable works fine too, POCSAG and FLEX2 are deciding no problem.

Thanks again
