[Feature request] Recorder module - create a new file on every transmission heard on the channel

[atlex]

Hello @AlexandreRouma ! Thank you for the great tool!

Could you please update the Recorder module to create a new file on every transmission heard on the channel? It is very useful to have recorded files without any silence. An output file can be completed/closed when squelch is closed. And new file will be created when squelch is opened.

You can see it in action in RTLSDR-Airband - split_on_transmission property https://github.com/szpajder/RTLSDR-Airband/wiki/Configuring-file-outputs

There is very good example - the SDR# Audio Recorder plugin http://rtl-sdr.ru/page/modificirovannyj-plagin-zapisi-iz-komplekta-sdrsharp

Actually you can do it with rtl-sdr-scanner (https://github.com/shajen/rtl-sdr-scanner) on Linux. Windows I don't know. Or we will able to do with SDRpp..But all these feature request will make SDRpp one day no more "bloatfree" but "bloatfull" ;-)

I think it's very useful to have ability to record some signals and have separate file for every transmission.

There now is an option to not record silence in the latest nightly. I will not however add an option to create separate files each time silence is detected. You would very quickly end up with thousands of files, it's just not a good idea.
