gpredict VS Mopidy

I didn't watch the video but Gpredict has tracking and a map showing the orbit path and ground footprint for satellites you select.

I'm using sdrpp with Doppler correction with gPredict. I record the signal in sdrpp and then process it with noaa-apt.

look at the source of http://gpredict.oz9aec.net/

Your missing the point basically they mean upgrade your software to Gpredict satellite tracking software (GPL) which has Linux and Windoze versions. http://gpredict.oz9aec.net/   Gpredict uses hamlib to control both radios and mounts. Hamlib supports many radios and mount support includes Meade, Celestron and iOptron IEQ45 alt-az mounts via AUSCOM standard software. Once done the next part is ensuring you set up you com ports to appropriately control your devices radio and mount and making sure the appropriate devices are set-up in the software. Note if your com ports change say because you replug something, don't forget to update the port details otherwise coms will fail and the relevant device won't be usable. Check out the documentation and there are a number number of set-up videos on YouTube if needed.

LWN usually has great content but they've missed out on so much free ham software in this article that I use regularly.

My main HF rig is an older Yaesu FT-950. I tapped the IF and brought it out of the chassis where it is plugged into a cheap RTLSDR. I then access that RTLSDR (with free drivers) with GQRX (free software for visualizing anything compatible with SoapySDR or GNU radio), and the result is that I get a panadapter that is arguably better than what's available on $2000 radios.

As for VHF/UHF stuff, I would be hopeless if it wasn't for GPredict on my laptop making it simple to track LEO satellites. https://github.com/csete/gpredict Short video here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/eg87BWpt2XnJdGFp7

I also run an APRS igate, which is powered by direwolf: https://sielicki.github.io/posts/radio-scanner-aprs-igate/ , https://github.com/wb2osz/direwolf

It hasn't been updated in a couple years now, but `gpredict` is a nice desktop program that will show projections of satellite orbits and predict upcoming passes.

Lots and lots of FOSS music players use libspotify or can otherwise connect to your Spotify account.

Here's just one. It's BYO frontend. https://mopidy.com/

Probably a good time to give a shout out to Mopidy: https://mopidy.com/

Though as for myself, I'm still running Squeezebox - nothing like being able to SSH into your smart speaker and mess around with the Perl system that's running it.

Have you tried Mopidy or MPD daemon? There's even a mopidy-party extension that is

I've tried several times to get mpd working over a network. The only way I got it to work was with mopidy. At some point it broke and I moved on to jellyfin instead. Too bad, because I love ncmpcpp as a client.

I have a music library on my home server that I use mopidy to play via the iris plugin integrated into my home assistant UI. It plays over Snapcast which streams over the network to multiple devices in the home with independent volume control. I can fire up the Snapcast client in my phone to get it going there as well, which does work over vpn if I'm away, though I generally just fire up the files from my phones SD card for out-of-home listening. I recently started using whipper on Linux to extract audio from craigslist cds.

Could instead use Mopidy as the music player, which has plugins for Spotify and Airplay support.

Thanks! I use it on a daily basis, but I don’t think it’s ready for a wider adoption yet — for example, a pause button is still missing ... I’d be curious to know your experience with it though! For something more stable, you might like Mopidy.

Right now I'm reading about mopidy and iris (I have a server with some docker services and it would be nice using it as a Spotify connect device), I think this setup could be extended with extra algorithms, maybe they already exist as modipy extensions. I've never gone into detail about these but I'll do it!
