New GD77 Beta - April 2022 (2022 04 09)

[VK3KYY]

Roger and Daniel, many thanks for this improved new firmware!

A couple of questions if possible.
First.
I know I am dumb as hell, I can not understand when it would be necessary to update the italian.h and wordlist_italian.csv files.
I know that for the stable version of the firmware the two above files are at the following paths:
https://github.com/LibreDMR/voice-promp ... languages/
downloads/releases/
But for beta versions?
Thanks.

Second one.
Is the monitor mode supposed to work even into satellite live data screen?
Thanks.
I ask because by trying to activate the monitor function by pressing SK2, partially starts the voice prompt even if it is not set to my GD-77 (the current setting I use is "beep").

My Bad.

As this is a Beta I forgot to upload the files necessary for translation

I've now updated the files in

With the latest firmware and voice prompt texts

Wow! thank You so much!! It is like RAL in Motorola ))
Also, RX Beep - nice function must be.
Next step waiting for TX AGC, if is it possible?

BTW, still not clear about signals with broken CRC issue... I remember old version can receive transmissions with Motorola RAS restrictions. Am I right? This time what is the difference ?

Thank You so much for Your project!

Thats why i have asked on a previous post, if they could compare an old one vs this one, and be improved.

RAS is proprietary, undocumented. Do you have any specs ? I guess not.
RAS is known to mess up the CRC, that's all I know, and when disabling the CRC checking, the code only ignores that validity, nothing more, that's it.

Unless some people are able to provide any relevant documentation, I consider this case closed, and if it's just going to be polemical subject, that option could also be dropped as it's not used in the Ham world.


Thanks.

Hello, true. But how come the old one work it out better? I think it has just small details to be corrected.

Can i send you my mail somewhere just to send you few videos for a feeling?

maybe it needs to describe how to use CRC function in new version: what is it On status for CRC? Or it needs to switch if Off to let SW to skip CRC issues?
also, regarding RX AGC ... what is the logic of 0 dB or more?
thanks for reply in advance

I think if on, than it ignores, if off, than it doesnt work.
Rx agc, if you increase, dmr sound on will be louder. You set it as you wish... i prefer more dcb and set less volume onna knob, as the modulation is much better

thank you

Many tnx for the new beta. Seems to work fine for me without any problems.

I will update the german translations and post it soon at the localisation support

Edit: I noticed a possible bug at the german voicepromts: In the display options the menu „Time“ is always spoken as in english time – the translation will not be used. but the wordlist_german.csv seems to be ok.

Probably my mistake.

I have to manually delete the mp3 to force the MP3 to be re-created using the TTSMP3 website, and in the case of the German voices, this may not have happened.

I may deleted the Time MP3 for all languages and rebuild, just in case
