Rdio Scanner + RTLSDR Airband problem

[poncheck]

Hello!

I am a newbie user of Rdio Scanner + RTLSDR Airband and I got a problem with Talkgroups and Systems on Rdio Scanner.

My RTLSDR Airband works in scan mode and preparing me a files with single transmision to Dirwatch folder with filename NAME_20220127_160810_145787500.mp3 with mask NAME#DATE_#TIME_#HZ. Files are load to Rdio but I can not find any option to prepare separate Talkgroups for files with mask frequency in filename in #HZ.

Is it any option to turn on scanner on my RTLSDR for 5 frequences that will be 5 others talkrooms in Rdio?

I would like to plug in four RTLSDR dongles to my raspberry for scanning 20 frequencies in one second and save files to Rdio.

Help me please!

Honestly, I've never tried in scan mode because that kinda defeats the purpose of Rdio Scanner, where you shouldn't miss anything.

This is why I did all my tests in multichannel mode. I use the filename_template property to indicate the talkgroupId. For example with filename_template set to cymx_119100 I get filenames like cymx_119100_20220127_140353_119100000 which with a mask like cymx_#TG_#DATE_#TIME_#HZ I can achieve what you want.

However, I understand that sometimes scan mode is necessary. For this reason, I will add on the next version a new mask #TGHZ which will set both the talkgroupId and the frequency to the same value. That should do the trick, but until then you're out of luck in scan mode.

Thank for your help! Everything working very well!

Can some one post a config or maybe some screenshots on how to get this to work. I would like to use multichannel to record 7-8 vhf-air freqs and then have them all feed into rdio-scanner. I guess the part I'm stuck at is with the mask and TG settings. Thanks.

@samsonpwnz There's already an example in the docs/examples/rtlsdr-airband folder.

I should of dug around a bit more before asking the question, thanks for pointing this out. I am itching to get this to work!
