A curious one for you! When selecting Soar Sound, it quits unexpectedly.

It has more than 144 CUs. This is not supported.

In case you are able to contact the mux provider, please tell him that the protection level 1A is the culprit. This is indented for DAB+, but the service uses mp2. Even if this is possible, it makes no sense.

That is a very interesting case. Could you please share IQ recording? I tend to agree with Andreas that such configuration in not aligned with standard or at least makes no sense. Nonetheless, I would like to check what is going on to avoid the crash at least.

Hi, I only have a 60 seconds .iff file of the Mux. I'm not in that area now! Would the .iff file be too large to send? Jeff

I'm still using 3.3.1, but when I click on Soar Sound, it will NOT crash, but the program thinks there is no service connected. It will crash when you select another service from the list afterwards.

So, the behaviour is different than in your case.

I can recall some problems with this mux in the past on the forums, but I was under the impression that it had been sorted, obviously not. With it quitting I was unable to extract the SR value, please could I trouble you for this value, at some point. Thanks

Comparison with dablin_gtk or Qt-DAB: it will play all audio services, so it's inside the DAB library.

Image Image

BTW: Radio LEAR has no sound in AbracaDABra, although it's DAB+ with mp2, but far below the "magic" 144 CUs. But it will not crash.

Remark: For future investigation (and probably for other DAB software) I've attached an eti-file, which is stored on github and only has 5 MB
