13:11 #navit: < CarPCMan> KaZeR, hi!
13:20 #navit: < KaZeR> hey CarPCMan !
13:21 #navit: < CarPCMan> Any experience with SDR KaZeR ?

16:10 #navit: < CarPCMan> KaZeR?
17:11 #navit: < KaZeR> hey CarPCMan
17:11 #navit: < KaZeR> i've look into SDR in the past, to use a realtek dongle as an FM receiver
17:12 #navit: < KaZeR> the software behind it seems a bit overcomplicated for my needs, so i'm considering switching to an arduino-compatible board. Driving it is a piece of cake, the only issue is that you cannot do software mixing anymore
17:13 #navit: < CarPCMan> My problem is, that I would need to pipe it back into my Raspberry Pi
17:28 #navit: < KaZeR> i have the exact same need :)
17:29 #navit: < KaZeR> How is your pi hooked to your car audio?
17:29 #navit: < CarPCMan> Going to buy an Amp to do it
17:29 #navit: < CarPCMan> One that is designed for cars
17:31 #navit: < KaZeR> ok. For my setup, i am considering using a relay to switch the audio signal from pi to fm
17:31 #navit: < CarPCMan> And then use your radio to tune to that station?
17:38 #navit: < KaZeR> i am thinking of using something like this : https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11083
17:38 #navit: < CarPCMan> But am I correct?
17:38 #navit: < CarPCMan> Are you trying to get radio, or to get the sound into your car?
17:38 #navit: < KaZeR> if by "your radio" you mean this board, then yes :)
17:39 #navit: < KaZeR> i already do have sound in my car. i just need to add the fm receiver
17:39 #navit: < CarPCMan> So you already have the Pi working with sound?
17:41 #navit: < KaZeR> i am currently using an intel nuc, but i've started rebuilding everything using a pi
17:41 #navit: < CarPCMan> Fair enough
17:41 #navit: < CarPCMan> But beware
17:41 #navit: < CarPCMan> If you plan on using Kodi
17:41 #navit: < CarPCMan> It's going to fuck you right over
17:41 #navit: < KaZeR> my car has an integrated audio amplifier, so it was quite easy to get sound, using the standard audio connector
17:41 #navit: < KaZeR> i am not planning on using kodi, in my opinion it's overkill :)
17:42 #navit: < KaZeR> hence : https://github.com/navit-gps/navit/pull/112
17:42 #navit: < KaZeR> how far are you done with your project? i love to hear about other people's projects
17:43 #navit: < CarPCMan> Currently I'm out about 3k Danish crowns
17:43 #navit: < CarPCMan> And I have nothing to show for it
17:43 #navit: < CarPCMan> But I want Kodi to work, because I've like TV/Movie playback
17:47 #navit: < CarPCMan> What functionality does your code add?
17:48 #navit: < KaZeR> it consists of two things : a very basic audio framework for navit, and an example implementation of said framework, which allows you to control the volume via alsa and to do some basic audio playback using spotify
17:48 #navit: < KaZeR> can you write some code?
17:49 #navit: < CarPCMan> Only Python/PHP programmer
17:50 #navit: < CarPCMan> Thinking of going into C++
17:50 #navit: < KaZeR> my personal plan is to design a board to make it easier to build raspberry-pi based carputers. current goal is smart power management (including delayed shutdown)
17:50 #navit: < KaZeR> ok cool. C should not be too hard if you know python and php
17:50 #navit: < CarPCMan> Like this - http://www.mausberrycircuits.com/collections/car-power-supply-switches/products/3a-car-supply-switch
17:50 #navit: < CarPCMan> Have experience in various languages, but Python/PHP would be the only, I could get payed to do
17:51 #navit: < KaZeR> i was never paid to write C :)
17:51 #navit: < CarPCMan> Currently working on a 15k USD PHP project
17:52 #navit: < CarPCMan> But writing code is fun; you get the most out of it, if you enjoy it :D
17:52 #navit: < KaZeR> yes, basically with the features from the board you linked. i just want to move away from "the pile of boards linked together" to a clean, one board approach
17:52 #navit: < KaZeR> exactly
17:53 #navit: < KaZeR> that's the inside of my current carputer : https://cdn.hackaday.io/images/9277141415413429670.jpg
17:55 #navit: < CarPCMan> Kind of like this? http://i-carus.com/
17:55 #navit: < CarPCMan> What screen do you use?
17:59 #navit: < KaZeR> yeah i know about i-carus. Their device looks good, but they have quite some bad review. But yeah, on the paper, i like what they do
18:00 #navit: < KaZeR> i am currently using a lilliput 669GL, but it's really bulky. also it goes blue when you change input (like switching to reverse gear) which is annoying, especially at night
18:00 #navit: < KaZeR> i also have the raspberry foundation touchscreen. Much cheaper, capacitive. But i'm concerned about sunglare (haven't tested it in the car yet)
18:03 #navit: < CarPCMan> There is some, but I think it's alright
18:03 #navit: < CarPCMan> Currently waiting for my antenna cable
18:03 #navit: < KaZeR> so you're using the raspi foundation screen yourself?
18:03 #navit: < CarPCMan> Yeah
18:03 #navit: < KaZeR> ok good to know
18:03 #navit: < CarPCMan> But I cannot mount it directly in my 2din panel
18:03 #navit: < KaZeR> too large?
18:03 #navit: < CarPCMan> Haven't got the gear yet
18:03 #navit: < KaZeR> ah ok
18:04 #navit: < CarPCMan> And I need to cut/bent the steel correctly
18:04 #navit: < CarPCMan> :/
18:05 #navit: < KaZeR> the steel?
18:05 #navit: < CarPCMan> Metal to hold it in place
18:05 #navit: < KaZeR> ah from the bezel from the 2din support, so that your screen fits inside?
18:06 #navit: < KaZeR> also after a couple of month using the pi screen on my desk, i have this issue too : https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=108&t=121898
