Re: Wavefile Source does not stream its audio to the end of the file.

Tried this, and 256 is too small. Something like 4096 seems to work on the wav file source. And setting the resampler max output buffer to 1024 works. Together, these may improve the situation. There is no absolute fix, though. GR terminates the flowgraph when any block reports it is done.

Jeff,

 

I guess you saw my reply to your suggestion.

 

Is there any way around this issue? There must be a way to use a wave file source of this length.

This is due to the way GNU Radio decides when a flowgraph is done. Since the audio rate is so low, most of the wavfile fits in the block buffer, the block sees that there is no more data to load and declares itself done.

 

There are buffer size controls that might help. On the advanced tab for the wavfile source, try setting the MAX output buffer to something like 256 and see if that helps.

I am attempting to send the output of a Wavefile Source to an Audio Sink as a test for inclusion in a larger project.

 

The flowgraph consists only of the Source block ( 12000 samples/sec), a Rational Re-sampler with interpolation of 4 and the Sink (48000 samples/sec). The wavefile is 15 seconds long and plays properly using SMPlayer.

 

When I run the flowgraph there is only a short burst of audio (measured in ms) and the flowgraph terminates.

 

What is wrong here? I expected the flowgraph to run for 15 secs.
