[Discuss-gnuradio] How to convert from message to complex/float

Dear List, I'm beginning with gr-mac. (https://github.com/jmalsbury/gr-mac). I need complex/float data to process but some blocks give message as output (*Tagged Stream to PDU*). I did try using *Message Source* to convert form message to complex but there was error with the ID: *NameError: global

Thank you Tom, I've installed gr-mac and try on running some flow graph. Some blocks there give output as message, but I want to take complex samples. How could I convert from message to complex? I used Message Source for that purpose but this error appears: *NameError: global name 'blocks_message

I suspect that 10GigE works just fine. It is PCIe and PCIe express that will have the "unique to a kernel release" issues. Again, as I said before, if you have no idea why you would need PCIe, DON'T DO IT. Use 10 GigE. On Mon, Apr 28, 2014 at 10:39 AM, Lapointe, Benjamin - 1008 - MITLL < blapo

Hi all - Just to clarify, it isn't the *version of OS* that matters, but rather the *version of the kernel provided by the OS*, that matters. At the top of our instructions for installing the USRP RIO kernel module, it lists the maximum kernel version we currently support: "*NOTE: The latest sup

That's very strange. Cython isn't required for either PyZMQ or gr-air-modes. My guess is you have multiple Python versions installed, and PyZMQ got installed to a version that isn't the one gr-air-modes found. Whatever works! =) --n On Mon, Apr 28, 2014 at 9:10 AM, Silverfox wrote: > I got it

When I looked into the attached graphical flowgraph in the first email, the signal was multiplied by zero (constant multiplier) before feeding into file sink and audio sink. In this case what you get was probably amplified noise. Was it zero or something else? On Fri, Apr 25, 2014 at 11:54 PM, M
