Software Capability Matrix

There are 77 major modes that can be selected from the Portsdown Console Menu. This table is a guide to the modes that work, or are in various stages of development. An X means that the mode does not work or does not make sense. Please read with the notes below.

NOTES

Please feel free to contribute your experiences to this page.

1. CAMH264 transmits an H264 704 x 576 image from the RPi Camera at SRs from 125KS up to over 4MS with the Portsdown filter-modulator board. The image is also displayed on the touchscreen if the viewfinder is not turned off. No sound is transmitted.

2. QPSKRF uses software to generate a dirty H264 QPSK DVB-S RF signal on one of the GPIO pins with harmonics at up to 437 MHz. The maximum SR available is about 400KS. No sound is transmitted.

22. Not working yet, possibly due to an RPi USB traffic capacity issue. The Analogue input and the DATV Express output both go through the same USB controller and it is suspected that it is overloaded. It is hoped to resolve this issue in the future.
