DAB+/FM support and optical audio support

Postby Dohmar » 08 Apr 2016, 06:30

Hiyas
Would like to request feature add for USB DVB-T RTL-SDR Realtek RTL2832U & R820T Tuner Receiver Dongle, in the form of kernel driver modules. Once added to kernel I can probably get the backend software working myself and then pass the diffs to the dev team for integration and GUI modification. This would give runeaudio the ability to tune in to digital and analogue radio signals.

I would also like to request support for optical drives. If we can get rune audio to look for /dev/cdrom (as a symlink to whatever peoples optical drives are physically attached to) and modify the gui to manipulate the cd audio player with the options for Play, Stop, Next, Previous, Eject and if possible fast forward and fast rewind. If rune can query the CDDB to download cover art and populate track names, that would be cool too.

If you can pls compile the drivers into the kernel as modules for the next 0.4 beta release I can start working on the backend. If possible, could we compile in modules for other dab/fm dongles to cover as much hardware as possible, so perhaps others can use other devices?
Thanks
