Because of my continuing audio issues with SDRTrunk, I'm attemping to experiment with Trunk-Recorder on Docker/Ubuntu22.04, but I am having a problem getting it to start.

I get an error indicating "Failed parsing Config: Wrong rtlsdr device index given."

I am using 3 RTL-SDR dongles s/ns 00000001, 00000002 & 00000003. GQRX shows the indexes rtl 2, 1 & 0.

My config.json is as follows:
{
"ver": 2,
"sources": [{
"center": 855137500,
"rate": 2048000,
"error": 1000,
"gain": 39,
"debugRecorders": 0,
"digitalRecorders": 4,
"driver": "osmosdr",
"device": "rtl=00000001" (Note: I have aslo tried "rtl=2")
}, {
"center": 857062500,
"rate": 2048000,
"error": 0,
"gain": 39,
"digitalRecorders": 4,
"driver": "osmosdr",
"device": "rtl=00000002" (Note: I have aslo tried "rtl=1")
}],
"systems": [{
"control_channels": [854137500],
"type": "p25",
"talkgroupsFile": "icorrs_talkgroups.csv",
"shortName": "icorrs",
"modulation": "qpsk"
}],
"captureDir": "/home/bob/dockers/trunkrecorder/"
}

Can anyone offer any suggestions?

Thanks,
Bob

Try just "rtl=0"and "rtl=1" this is how i have my config file.
"ver": 2,
"sources": [{
"center": 453459375,
"rate": 2048000,
"error": 0,
"gain": 39,
"digitalRecorders": 4,
"driver": "osmosdr",
"device": "rtl=0"
}, {
"center": 460250000,
"rate": 2048000,
"error": 0,
"gain": 39,
"digitalRecorders": 4,
"driver": "osmosdr",
"device": "rtl=1"
also the error on your first dongle is set to 1000.

Thanks for your reply! I discoverd that my problem was due to trying to run in Docker and I am not properly configured for Docker. I am running it in the OS and all is good!

Can Trunk-Recorder be used in a Windows 11 environment? I was not able to find a download for Trunk-Recorder for Windows. Any help is appreciated. I was hoping to upload audio from SDRTrunk to OpenMHz.
