PlutoSDR needs zeroconf to work
sensille opened this issue · comments
I tried to get a PlutoPlus to work via ethernet inside a VM without multicast routing, so auto-discovery doesn't work. adi-osc works when I explicitly give the IP address of the device. I tried the same in gqrx, using the device string "soapy,driver=plutosdr,uri=ip:192.168.1.120", to no avail. Is that supposed to work?
Auto scanned backends are "local", "usb=0456:b673", "ip" (iio_create_scan_context()) and a fixed address can be give with hostname (iio_create_network_context()). The argument uri is used for matching only. https://github.com/pothosware/SoapyPlutoSDR/blob/master/PlutoSDR_Registration.cpp
Try the device string soapy,driver=plutosdr,hostname=192.168.1.120
Works, thanks!
