Daniele, Thank you for your advice! The problem here (not so big though) is that upon receiving of needed number of samps you need to stop streaming and that implies waiting for some timeout while excess samps being flushed (as I understood, after issuing STREAM_MODE_STOP_CONTINUOUS you have to clear input buffers using something like streamer->flush_all(0.01);). I'm trying to estimate how long that timeout should be, and in some cases it obviously would be more or less worse than a possible scenario without timeouting.

A bit surprised to see this in 64-bit environment... The assertion is in module rx_vita_core_3000.cpp: > >UHD_ASSERT_THROW(stream_cmd.num_samps <= 0x0fffffff); > >Is this some physical limit, or it can be patched to a larger value? It's kind of inconvenient to solve this through continuous streaming when you need a trace of a certain length... > >Vladimir > >Questo messaggio e i suoi allegati sono indirizzati esclusivamente alle persone indicate.
