- Optimization
- Eliminate large waterfall texture uploads
- Update visuals to OpenGL 3.x / OpenGL ES
- Resolve constant refresh on visuals that don't change often
- Resolve all driver/platform vertical sync issues
- Group and divide IQ data distribution workload instead of 100% distribution per instance
Advanced Goals and ideas:
- Design a plan for expansion via modules (dylib/dll/lua)
- Support shell-based stdin/stdout tools for direct output/playback to/from CLI audio processing apps (i.e. DSD on OSX)
- Update visuals to support OpenGL ES
- Basic demodulator filter(s) that can be enabled and tweaked visually
- Support multiple simultaneous device usage
- Categorize devices by antenna connections
- Allow locked frequencies to activate unused devices to continue demodulation on same antenna
- Integrate LUA
- Expose liquid-dsp functionality
- Scriptable liquid-dsp demodulation
- Scriptable digital demodulation output handlers
- Create block output devices on *nix?
- Create socket outputs?
- Visual outputs?
- Take control of additional devices and spawning new demodulators (i.e. trunkers)
- Script manager / live editor
- Provide scriptable liquid-dsp modulation for trancievers?
- Allow scripts to launch/run headless (no UI)
- "PVR" like mode with waterfall time shifting
- L/R and surround-sound balance settings for separating and listening to mono streams
- Add tool for converting decimated I/Q recording to video
- Select video features such as title/demodulation/scope/waterfall/etc
- Render to video from GL frames->ffmpeg/mencoder /w demodulated audio
- Accessability / Control
- USB/MIDI control surfaces
- Joystick / gamepad input
- Vibration / force-feeback
- Investigate compilation via emscripten using rtl_tcp for input
- Create web server+rtl_tcp bundle for embedded devices
- Use emscripten compiled CubicSDR via embedded web server
