Windows FM Radio support in v5.

[mvallevand]

I want to do this in stages so I can post some thing on wiki.  Remember that FM analog radio devices are dead technology vendors haven't produced them since the digital migration so expect some bumps.  Lucky users will find a device with linux support I haven't found one and certainly wouldn't spend money to get one. Streaming and SDR FM are the future and much easier to get working.

Anyway for stage one,  I would like you to run this command and send the output

ffmpeg -list_devices true -f dshow -i dummy

ffmpeg is distributed with NextPVR and is in "C:\Program Files\NextPVR\Other"

Is this what you wanted?

[mvallevand]

Yes, which device do you want to try with Avermedia or Hauppauge

Martin

[UncT]

I think the Avermedia, but Martin, if one is easier than another, you can decide.

[mvallevand]

No that is fine.  No lets try

ffmpeg -show_analog_tv_tuner_dialog true -f dshow -i video="AVerMedia USB Polaris Analog Capture"

Do you get something like this that allows you to select FM

Martin

[UncT]

Yes

[UncT]

Martin, wife needs me for some work outside. Leave me instructions and I will complete them later tonight or tomorrow for sure. Thanks my friend,

[mvallevand]

Sorry I am doing other things too I know it seems slow but I want to make sure every step is ok. I've been burnt a few times making an extra device where steps get overlooked. Also this is new.

If you have ffplay on your system use the dialpad and change the frequency to a known fm frequency and

ffplay -f dshow -i audio="AVerMedia USB Polaris Analog Capture"

Brings up the resulting window

Which I adjusted to a working local FM station

And then just for shits and giggles ...

Produced a valid WAV output of the FM station I tuned into above. Played it in VLC, and it sounded great!
