  • v1.239: shortcut keys 'x' & 'y' for UI visibility control

    No time soon. I have to do something about mobile. It's intolerable. And Daniel has been rightfully taking me to task, viz:
    However, the current client has more obstacles to mobile friendliness than just the UI. For example, it sends nearly a megabyte of non-minified, non-gzipped JavaScript on page load, and the server even intentionally disables the cache for mobile clients.

  • v1.239: shortcut keys 'x' & 'y' for UI visibility control

    Press 'x' to quickly toggle the visibility of all control panels.

    Press 'y' to toggle the top bar and band/tag bars as follows: both visible, one visible, the other visible, none visible. The frequency scale remains always visible.

    Mobile-device equivalents of this, and mobile improvements in general, are being thought about.

  • raw I/Q channels

    When you mentioned "external decoders" I assumed you were interested in I/Q obtained from the L/R channels of the browser audio output, e.g. so the browser could be used to control the Kiwi. It is indeed possible to connect over the network (via web sockets) to the Kiwi server and issue the same API commands as the browser UI does to set frequency etc.

    An example written in Python that works on Linux/OS X is called kiwiclient/kiwirecorder available here: https://github.com/jks-prv/kiwiclient/tree/jks-v0.1 It is capable of recording to .wav files but there is no reason you couldn't stream to another application. I think Christoph was working on (or has working) an interface to GNUradio this way. The I/Q mode bandwidth is of course limited to the audio channel bandwidth (currently 12 kHz).
