Thanx

Could this PVR add-on for Radio RDS make it into the official Kodi 17.0 release?

https://github.com/xbmc/repo-binary-addons/pull/57

That is, will this add-on be bundled with releases like all other PVR add-ons?

https://github.com/xbmc/repo-binary-addons

It is not yet listed in the official repository for Kodi binary add-ons:

https://github.com/AlwinEsch/pvr.rtl.radiofm

https://github.com/kodi-pvr

Sure hope it will be made part of the official Kodi 17.0 release.

does anyone have this on winodws 10 working with pvr? maybe running some kind of fm server for network?

AlbrechtL (Albrecht Lohofener) have a stand-alone streaming server for here https://github.com/AlbrechtL/rtl_fm_streamer

This server runs under Linux on a PC or Raspberry Pi but it can stream to clients running Kodi on any operating-system.

Hmm ... and *how* does this work? Is there an addon python script to be able to scan the frequencies for FM and DAB as well as store the found stations in a file (json or m3u or sowhatever). I've compiled rtl_fm_streamer for static binaries to use them on a NAS and found some binaries

Code:

Hardware/rtl_fm_streamer-0.5.3/root/usr/local/bin/rtl_sdr
Hardware/rtl_fm_streamer-0.5.3/root/usr/local/bin/rtl_tcp
Hardware/rtl_fm_streamer-0.5.3/root/usr/local/bin/rtl_test
Hardware/rtl_fm_streamer-0.5.3/root/usr/local/bin/rtl_fm
Hardware/rtl_fm_streamer-0.5.3/root/usr/local/bin/rtl_eeprom
Hardware/rtl_fm_streamer-0.5.3/root/usr/local/bin/rtl_adsb
Hardware/rtl_fm_streamer-0.5.3/root/usr/local/bin/rtl_power

indeed rtl_test works

Code:

... but how to use rtl_sdr or rtl_fm without wrapper to be able to use it?
Also I do not understand what is wrong with pvr.rtl.radiofm for kodi kryptonit ... is there a licence and/or patent problem?

I know this thread is pretty old, but I'm wondering if anyone can give me a hand.  I'm really struggling trying to figure out how to get this to work on my Raspberry Pi 3 B+ setup.  I was originally trying to run Buster because it's the latest release, but had enough version issues with it being new enough that I dropped back to Stretch and am having a little more luck, but cannot figure out how to get this addon working.  The website for the addon only has downloads for Kodi 15 and 16, but on the Github page it looks like it has been updated to work with Kodi 18.  I cannot figure out how to get it installed though.  I've tried downloading the zip file from Github and doing "install addon from zip" in Kodi, but that doesn't work.  I've tried following the directions to build it myself, but I'm getting an error that it can't find KodiConfig.cmake or kodi-config.cmake and even after I would build it I'm not sure how to add it to Kodi.  Can someone help me understand 1. if this really even works with Kodi 18 or not, and 2. how to get it installed if it does?  All I want is a visual FM radio program.  Everything for the Raspberry Pi seems to be command line based, but I'm putting this in a car and hoping to replace my stereo head unit and really want graphics to change radio settings and view RDS info.  I have an RTL-SDR dongle working with GQRX and am receiving broadcasts, I just want a visual based tuner now so I can easily change frequencies in the car.

Hello,
I stumbled across this addon,  and by the description it seems to be exactly what I want.
An FM receiver with a UI that works with the SDR dongle I have.

I've been trying to get it installed into Kodi 18.7 I believe on my Raspberry PI 4.
But when I try and install it,  I get a failed message saying 'invalid structure'

Does anyone know if this addon still works? 
Or if anyone has made a similar one?

[bam80]

I wonder can DVB-T2 radio channels have SDR or it's intended for analog signal only?

[boxcar32]

Try this. I have it on pi 400 and win 11.
