The terminal output does suggest your gqrx was compiled with rtlsdr support. Try compiling gqrx-git from the AUR, preferably with rtl-sdr-git installed. Or follow the upstream build instructions. If that doesn't work, I think it's best to submit an issue upstream.[1] [1]: https://github.com/gqrx-sdr/gqrx/issues/new On Wed, 17 Jan 2024 at 13:18, pete <petegn@mail.com> wrote:

Do you have rtl-sdr (or rtl-sdr-git) installed? Did you try running rtl_test? [1]

Hi again

once again previoius to the big ooppsss

gqrx worked fine with my RTL-SDR Blog V4

no way can i get it to work now it shows up in lsusb as Bus 008 Device 004: ID 0bda:2838 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL2838 DVB-T

in the previous setup it did not show the DVB-T i believe that may be the issue but try as i might i can not stop the darn DVB-T

in "/usr/lib/udev/rules.d/10-rtl-sdr.rules" as per recomended

RTL2832U OEM vid/pid, e.g. ezcap EzTV668 (E4000), Newsky TV28T (E4000/R820T) etc. SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0bda", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2838", MODE:="0666"

This is already supplied
