    Download the https://github.com/rtlsdrblog/rtl-sdr-blog or https://github.com/librtlsdr/librtlsdr version instead. Even try both, since there may be differences.

    It looks like at least some of the features of the projects you linked can be found in this fork of the librtlsdr library (such as controls for the individual gain stages). Their improvements page discusses these extended controls towards the bottom of the page.

    There are a few variations of librtlsdr, f.e. this fork; https://github.com/librtlsdr/librtlsdr which adds features that aren't available in the version used in most Linux distributions. This adds some extra features and output that are really useful (most notably, regular output of max, min, mean power levels and noise floor). It also has some extra functions to fine tune signals.
