This tool will attempt to straighten wavy / broken lines in received SSTV images. It requires input files in BMP format. Please, feel free improving it. Let me know of the results.

ATTENTION:
OpenWebRX+ packages are mainly built for Ubuntu 22.04 and Debian Bullseye. If you are on Ubuntu 24.04 or Debian Bookworm, you have to wait until your packages are built. If you are using Docker, you have to wait until new Docker image is built.

Thank you for your attention. Cheers!

OpenWebRX+ 1.2.74 is now available from the repository. This release adds a CW skimmer decoding all CW transmissions in a 24kHz chunk of spectrum. There is also a bunch of fixes.

- Added CWSkimmer decoder using csdr-cwskimmer tool.
- Added UI.tuneBookmark(), UI.toggleScanner().
- Fixed FLEX decoder to parse multiple capcodes.
- Fixed several scanner bugs.
- No longer translating EIBI CW bookmarks 800Hz down.

Getting there...

Work in progress: CW skimmer

OpenWebRX+ 1.2.73 is now available from the repository. This is a bugfix release. JavaScript frequency and mode controls have also been refactored, so look for any regressions when changing frequency or mode via UI.

- Added frequency to recorded MP3 filenames.
- Added 800Hz to newly created CW bookmarks.
- Refactored frequency and modulation UI code.
- Accounted for ACARS altitudes set to "ground".
- Stripped whitespace from input strings.
- Fixed SSL on newer Python3 versions.

The OpenWebRX+ 1.2.72 is now available as 32bit and 64bit SD card images for Raspberry Pi devices, built by Stanislav (LZ2SLL). The 32bit image should run on all devices except RPI5. The 64bit image should run on all devices except RPI1, RPI2, and RPIZero1.

OpenWebRX+ 1.2.72 is now available from the repository. This release adds optional underlying modulation to bookmarks. I have also done a major cleanup of bookmark editing code.

- Added underlying modulation to bookmarks.
- Added sanitizing bookmark contents.
- Added bias-tee support for rtl_tcp [jeskko].
- Added dependency on python3-distutils-extra.
- Fixed Chrome bug opening "Settings" section.
- Refactored bookmark editing mechanism.

Since CSDR/PyCSDR 0.18.25 had a problem decoding some SSTV modes, I had to publish version 0.18.26 of these libraries with the bug fixed. New packages are available now from the repository.

OpenWebRX+ 1.2.71 is now available from the repository. This release adds support for a bunch of SSTV formats, including PD and Wraase SC2 variations. I have also added keyboard shortcuts to toggle the receiver panel and the log / chat panel.

- Added PD50, PD90, PD120, PD160, PD180, PD240, PD290 SSTV modes.
- Added Wraase SC2-30, SC2-60, SC2-120 SSTV modes.
- Added Scottie 3 and Scottie 4 SSTV modes (please test).
- Added Martin 3 and Martin 4 SSTV modes (please test).
- Added Robot 12 and Robot 24 SSTV modes (please test).
- Added AVT-90 SSTV mode.
- Added "Settings | General | External links" section.
- Fixed FT8 call distances not hiding on Leaflet maps.
- [ENTER] toggles receiver panel, [L] toggles log/chat.
- Now marking SSTV BMPs with 0x73 at offset 7.
