DATV-Easy

Post by G7JTT » Fri Jun 13, 2025 4:09 am

Morning all need some help with DATV-Easy. I recently added a second NVME drive in my laptop. It had a 500Gb, but this was becoming very full. The second NVME is a 1Tb and is faster than the original one, so once I installed it I cloned the smaller drive to the new 1Tb drive. This seemed to go fine and everything I've used has worked fine, except DATV-Easy. The program runs but when you press start the two green LEDs light but the bit rate remains at zero and the lime doesn't initialise (green flashing led). I tried deleting DATV-Easy, both folders and removed all mentions of it in the registry with no change to it's behaviour. I know the lime is working as SDRconsole and SDR++ work fine with it. So I switched back to the old drive and it it worked fine.

Any ideas ?

Ok so I bit the bullet this morning and re-cloned the new drive and I'm glad to report DATV-Easy is now working 😁 it would still of been nice to know what caused it not to work, but hey who cares it's working again 🥳

Sometimes when you "clone" a drive not all files get locked and unlocked files may not copy across successfully.

It was a lot more fun being 20 in the 70's than being 70 in the 20's
