My Longmynd was working fine with the FTDI board but I decided to take advantage of the Pico and a second transport stream.
Now running lONGMYNDit does not even connect?
Error Monitor WS Closed.
Does longmynd work with the longmynd client if it has the pico mod for two TS's?
Then ran Open tuner

I only have my modified Longmynd/pico on the network and so did not select MQTT Client

These are my settings When I connect the IP address is displayed with a pink bar under it and Tuner 1 demod state is also a pink bar.
In the back ground the same error is scrolling through.
Any guidance would be appreciated

LongMynd in the Pluto does not support the PicoTuner, only the MiniTiouner. That needs a change by F5OEO.

Update
Connecting the modified dual TS mini tuner to a PC directly and I can view both streams with Open tuner
Connecting it back to the pi in the longmynd and setting it up as before pink bars s the tuner is working ok with dual TS's but cannot get it to work in longmynd and viewed on open tuner v 0.B?

I do not have a pluto Dave
This is pico tuner (Mk 2 mini tuner + pico board added
It works as a stand alone mini/pico tuner but not in Longmynd config

Not sure I understand what exact configuration you are running with LongMynd.

Please describe the full hardware and software set-up.

Thanks

Dave

Hardware is a MiniTuner v2 plus a pi to make a Longmynd that works with the vFTDI module.

FTDI module removed and replaced with a pico tuner.
This set up works stand alone. so that when connected to a PC open tumer recognises hardware and two streams can be viewed.
The modded mini tuner when reconnected back in a longmymd config has the problem that open tuner does not see it

Standard longmymd is a v2 mini tuner and a raspberry pi 4

Dave will correct me but I don't think Longmynd supports dual TS. I am not even sure if Picotuner support was ever backported to the base Longmynd code.

The Longmynd element of the Ryde receiver was modified to support the Picotuner but only with one TS.

As far as I am aware only Opentuner supports using two TS with the Picotuner.

I think you are correct Colin
The pico conversion worked with Ryde but only with one stream as advertised but not in the longmynd.
Question for me now is do I revert to longmynd or remove pi and use opentuner hi hi
I spent very little time looking at how OT worked last night and my USB cable was a bit short to connect to PC leaving a bit of a mess on the bench.
If time permits tonight weill try again.
There is Longmynd support on open tuner too but as I recall that failed with the FTDI module
Off to work now maybe tonight I will have time to play hi hi
