RDIO-SCANNER delay issues

[Napalm]

SDR-Trunk and Rdio-scanner...

Everything is set up fine, but I'm getting frustrated. I'm feeding a very busy system so I expect *some* delay but at times the backup of calls to be fed is 20 minutes or so. I never get that problem listening to my own bcfy calls playlist.

Is there anything that can be done?

I use Trunking Recorder to listen to all my calls, with no lag. I do like the web interface of Rdio Scanner, but I too, have found that it lags quite a bit. I gave up on it rather quickly and stayed with Trunking Recorder.

Can I access trunking recorder remotely?

I may have to make a custom calls playlist I can access through Scanner App

Yes, it has a web interface but you'll likely have to port forward. It's not like rdio-scanner with a dedicated app for android and ios so unfortunately listening from your phone can be troublesome since you need to use the browser to access the web interface. In my case on IOS, I can't lock my screen or close my browser without calls ceasing to play.

It’s 20 minutes delayed on sending it in? That’s very much irregular behaviour, my upload queue is non existent and ingesting thousands of files a day. Could you elaborate on this a little more?

Is there any chance your RDIO is monitoring ALL talkgroups on one more systems, and that you have it set to actually play every one of those calls? Versus, having a BCFY Calls playlist with like 20 talkgroups?

I'll give you an example of what I'm asking.

If I were to log into my RDIO either via web or app, and then go and enable ALL the talkgroups that I'm capturing, then when I am listening I'd almost never get caught up on listening because I'm monitoring so many talkgroups at once. The calls (and some of them long) are coming in faster than I can listen to them. No fault of RDIO. However, if I log into RDIO, go to Select TGs, and turn off all systems and then only turn on the talkgroups I actually want to hear, then I rarely have more than one or two queued up calls -- usually zero.

IF you are monitoring one or more large systems / sites and have all the TGs enabled in RDIO for you to listen to, you will almost certainly be plagued with calls being queued up simply because you are trying to listen to so many talkgroups and there is so much traffic on the talkgroups that you are listening to that the queue of unlistened-to calls just keeps building up.

In a BCFY Calls playlist you are much less likely to have that happen because Playlists I believe are limited to a certain number of talkgroups.

Calls playlists are limited to 30 tgids, so there can potentially be a large backup in listening also.

True, but a lot less likely than monitoring one or more large sites/systems with dozens upon dozens of talkgroups. It is unclear where the OP is experiencing these "queued" calls though. I have to assume he/she means in the RDIO interface. And if calls are queued up there (for listening), they simply are attempting to monitor way too much traffic from way too many talkgroups. In the time that it may take to play one particular call (imagine 30 seconds of audio or more on a single call) on a system where there are multiple talkgroups active, during that 30+ seconds of one call playing, one can accumulate 20+ more shorter calls if a lot of talkgroups are being monitored. That then makes it nearly impossible to every "catch up" and have the queued calls cleared.
