Post subject:  Raspberry Pi?

I noticed the version now available for Raspberry Pi, and it intrigued me for potential broadcast use for FM. Was wondering if a Raspberry pi is capable of 192khZ and generating stereo and RDS?

Best way is to check what sound chip is on board.

Not with the on-board sound chip, but there are others that you can use. In fact, some people have even managed to write an exciter including stereo/rds encoding for it (the output is a square wave though, so you'll be heard on many frequencies).

Clipping is a different issue though, because clipping requires oversampling it seems to be too heavy (at least in my current implementation). But Stereo/RDS encoding can definitely run on it.

Yeah, I think that you could use the RPi as a transmitter, and input the MPX to it over the network. I would love to try that but I don't know C at all. You could put an bandpass filter in front of the transmitting pin, and after that the output wont be square anymore ;)

Hi. Do you think a command-line version of the RPi ST is easy to compile?

I am thinking of testing the Rpi as a "last mile" final processor for a FM network in Ukraine, and even with the limited number of processing/filters possible, the ST would still do the job. However, I would prefer to integrate the ST into the existing script, which is not possible with the standalone version.

Best regards,

Christo

Do you need a version with Jack support? If not it's easy.

I assume I can use fifo in.pcm/out.pcm instead of actual Jack. At least I was able to work it this way on the linux command line, avoiding Jack.

Ok I should be able to do that tomorrow. Please remind me if I forget!
