How to build DSD 1.7 with Cygwin

[M105]

I would like to do some experimenting with the old DSD source code under Windows. I found these instructions on rtl-sdr.com https://www.rtl-sdr.com/tag/cygwin/

I made it to step 5 but I am unable to link the files. I have installed all the libsndfile libraries available in Cygwin and have tried to link using many variations of this command.
gcc -lsndfile *.o -o dsd.exe

The libsndfile is being found but the linker is reporting undefined references to the calls to various sndfile routines within the object files.
-----------------
I am not a linux guru so I am somewhat lost in all this. Please keep this in mind when answering!
---
Can someone please help by providing some detailed instructions or pointing me to some information. Thanks!

 

[thewraith2008]

Not sure if you have checked this out but a supposed successful compile command line given here.
This post on this thread about compiling

It also mentions that newer versions of cygwin are an issue.
See here on same thread

Not sure if work as I've not tried it. It's FYI.

 

[M105]

Thanks! I tried it but get the same errors. Here is what the compiler is reporting:

dsd_audio.o:dsd_audio.c.text+0x5f6): undefined reference to `sf_write_short'
dsd_audio.o:dsd_audio.c.text+0x9e2): undefined reference to `sf_open_fd'
dsd_audio.o:dsd_audio.c.text+0xa0a): undefined reference to `sf_strerror'
dsd_audio.o:dsd_audio.c.text+0xb24): undefined reference to `sf_open'

and so on...

 

[thewraith2008]

The 'sf_xxxxxx' references are for "libsndfile"

Maybe path to "libsndfile" library is not defined?

EDIT:
In your first post you said you used "gcc -lsndfile *.o -o dsd.exe"
I just found something that mentioned the switch might be:

-lsndfile-1

 

[M105]

Yes sndfile-1.dll did eliminate the sf_ errors. Apparently I didn't compile the dsd files properly as I am still getting some other reference errors.

try this

https://www.george-smart.co.uk/scrapbook/digital_speech_decoder/

it works but sometimes mbelib gets placed in a folder DSD doesn't see so you have to find three mbelib files and move them to the right folder DSD expects..Using local loop helps too. I had best results on Lubuntu Xenial. It should work on any Debian distro.

if mbelib error examples

Find it:
sudo find / | grep -i libmbe.so.1

moving it
sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libmbe* /usr/lib/

never forget sudo ldconfig

 

[M105]

Thanks but isn't that a linux build?

 

[simpilo]

Yes its a linux build. DSD 1.7 will have high cpu usage in Windows. Use it in a linux distro.

 

[M105]

Thanks again but respectfully, that isn't what I was asking for. I want to build it with Cygwin.

 

[woodpecker]

I can't remember which version of the source exactly that I use and I've heavily modified it for things like basic privacy but I wrote a compile script to use in Cygwin as below:-

cd /home/dsd-1.7
make clean
cd /home/mbelib-1.2.3
make clean
make -j5
sleep 2
cp /home/mbelib-1.2.3/*.o /home/dsd-1.7
cd /home/dsd-1.7
make -j5
sleep 5
gcc -O2 -Wall -L/usr/local/lib -o dsd mbelib.o dsd_main.o dsd_symbol.o dsd_dibit.o dsd_frame_sync.o dsd_file.o dsd_audio.o dsd_serial.o dsd_frame.o dsd_mbe.o dsd_upsample.o p25p1_hdu.o p25p1_ldu1.o p25p1_ldu2.o p25p1_tdulc.o p25_lcw.o x2tdma_voice.o x2tdma_data.o dstar.o dstar_header.o nxdn_voice.o nxdn_data.o dmr_voice.o dmr_data.o provoice.o ambe3600x2250.o imbe7200x4400.o ecc.o imbe7100x4400.o ambe3600x2400.o
cp ./dsd.exe ..

 

[mk92682]

Could you please kindly share the modified source? For science, obviously.
Thanks so much.

THANK YOU WOODPECKER.

I will digest all that the first chance I get.

Copy them to a folder of your choosing

run DSD with options
 dsd -v   to see options (See: [url]https://github.com/szechyjs/dsd/wiki/Operation[/url])

 dsd -i /dev/dsp -o /dev/dsp   to start decoding

dsd uses default audio input and output devices as set by windows.
I have not had luck using numbers with -i -o options as seen via dsd -a

In test, I set output of SDR# to Virtual Cable line 1 and made it default.
Output to speaker should already be default.

Tested on DMR (-fr)

Hopefully this is useful for people to get it going.

 

[M105]

FANTASTIC!
Maybe if we can get a few more folks working with the code there will be some additions like P25 Phase II.

 

[thewraith2008]

For me, All P25 Phase 1 and II are encrypted and are not of interest to me.

You could study the P25 Phase II code that already exists in the OP25 project.
It's a mix of C and Python code but it could give you an idea how to start implementing it.

 

[M105]

I may do that on P25 II code. I wish it was in DSD+ as most of it around me is not encrypted and would be great to have on my Windows setup.

I also received the green text warning. This should be OK to ignore.

The red text indicates the cmake can't find mbelib.a in expected location. I think that location should be \usr\local\lib
This is copied when you run "make install". You sure you did that command?
I think I forgot that command 1st time around.

 

[M105]

I must have missed that step. I got it to compile.

Thanks a million. Maybe in a few months I will understand what I did!

Using different sound I/O devices with DSD v1.7 on windows

I have been messing around with this code a bit more.

It seems you can select different audio inputs and output devices with DSD v1.7 on windows by using the 'pa:' sub option for the options '-i' and '-o'. Normally you would use: (which only uses the windows default devices)

dsd -i /dev/dsp -o /dev/dsp

So to get a list of I/O devices use:

[b]dsd -a[/b]

Then using the numbers portaudio associates with the I/O devices:

[b]dsd -i pa:1 -o pa:7[/b]

EDIT: I've noticed that when using this method, exiting out of DSD takes a little longer to respond to the CTRL-C.
