Hi GP,

ofdm_loopback.grc covers only the physical aspects of the transmission.
What you are describing is a flow control problem; you'd need to figure
out yourself how to make your data stream fit into the packets. A
typical way would be to send the length of your file, and then just fill
up the last packet with random data/redundancy/zeros; however, what will
happen if you lose one packet?

In a real-world application, you'll have some content header, you'd have
channel coding/FEC, possibly some ARQ scheme, in case of multiple users
a MAC etc; whereas you "only" stream bits out of a file. Complete,
versatile transmission systems is what people build atop of transmission
systems such as the GNU Radio-supplied OFDM packet transmitters (which
primarily serve as good examples and showcases for the mechanisms involved).

Hope that was a little helpful,
Greetings,
Marcus
