Re: Analog Bridge

Thanks steve. Now it all makes sense. I was just wondering. I guess I’m just fascinated with how simple and straight forward the script is.

Yes, for "like to like" AMBE <-> AMBE all you need is MMDVM_Bridge It's a "loop back" if you take MB apart, it's 5 different modes. All sending data out through UDP ports (TLV) If you loop the TLV port for DMR to the TLV port for YSF. (TX to RX and RX to TX) You have a bridge.

Re: Analog Bridge
Aaron,
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
Both YSF and DMR are AMBE. The only difference is the wrapper. Let me try to explain it this way. You write a letter and put it in a envelope addressed to me. You mail it off trough the post office. When the post office receives it, they take you letter out of the envelope. They put your letter, unaltered, into a a new envelop and deliver it to me. The only thing taht changed it the envelop. The letter is unchanged. MB receives the YSF. It extracts the raw AMBE. It builds a new DMR transmission containing the raw AMBE wrapped in such a way that a DRM radio can understand it. DMR, YSF (narrow) and NXDN are all AMBE. P25 and YSF (wide) are IMBE D-Star is AMBE (more or less) at a different rate. A transcoder is 2 vocoders back to back (AB <-> AB) AMBE to AMBE does not need a transcoder (Analog_Bridge) AMBE to IMBE needs a transcoder. AMBE to D-Star needs a transcoder. IMBE to D-Star needs a transcoder. Anything to analog needs a vocoder. (Digital <-> Analog) Analog_Bridge Hope this helps, Steve N4IRS

Re: Analog Bridge
Patrick Perdue
Analog_Bridge is only used to transcode uncommon audio formats, like DMR to P25, or DStar to YSF. DMR, NXDN and YSF use the same codec, so MMDVM_Bridge handles
that with no need to translate through A_B.

Analog Bridge
Aaron Groover
I just gotta know. How in the world is analog bridge not used for YSF to DMR?
How does this communicate? Where is the PTT going? As in transmission. I see nothing on MMDVM when I key it up. The point of analog bridge is to bridge the analog OVER to the DMR/Fusion/Dstar or whatever flavor suits your side right? Where is the audio exactly coming and going to and from?
15 years in radio development, and I still cant understand how or why this is…. NEVER have I seen just a MMDVM bridge running.
Because we use the same method to cross over any trunked county radio system to analog aka Berks County, City of Allentown, With an analog bridged system. MMDVM “Bridge” to me is simply just only logging into the networks.
I think this a good topic I guess, lets all the curious minds know 😉
Thanks for what you do Steve.

Can you use MMDVM bridge to link DMR to YSF on Brandmeister?
#brandmeister
#mmdvm_bridge
@hamzahradio
Hello,
I have setup a bridge between DMR and Brandmeister. I was talking to a brandmeister admin, N3FE, who said regarding the bridge "You are also linking your talkgroup using an open spot which is not the preferred method. " I explained I was using MMDVM bridge on a server. Is it OK to use MMDVM bridge, even if it's not the "preferred" method? Anyone have experience with this? Thanks 73

Re: YSF to DMR
Aaron Groover
Hey Steve, sorry for the late reply. Figured it out somehow, somehow "TXPort" in the YSF settings was "T/Port"
So I knew right there and then that was the problem. No idea how the slash got in that place, but gotta love linux! I took a copy of my backup files that i keep in case my node crashes compared them via microsoft word, did a ctrl find, place the entire file in the search box and it highlighted it right to the slash and then thats when i knew that was the problem. All is good now. Thanks again sir.

Re: Configuring DVSwitch Mobile to access own AllStarLink node
No,

It would be the other way around. Start with the AllStar image, then add DVSwitch Server.

Rewriting the .ini files is so 2019. ;)

Look at dvswitch.sh it will do everything you could want to do on the fly (Now, that's a bold statement) If it does not do it and you can make a case why it should it might be added. run /opt/MMDVM_Bridge/dvswitch.sh to see the options available. Steve N4IRS

Gerry Filby
Hi Folks,
Is there a way of dynamically configuring the bridges ? Something along the lines of the management interface that Asterisk exposes ? The immediate things would be - changing the target Talk Group and also receiving the telemetry to display to the user. At the moment the best I can think of is rewriting the ".ini" files and then calling :systemctl restart .._Bridge" Best, Gerry W6WNG

Re: Configuring DVSwitch Mobile to access own AllStarLink node
There are 2 different things in play here. You have to consider the
capabilities of DVSwitch Mobile (the Android client) and DVSwitch
Server.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
DVSwitch Mobile can be a IAX client. As a IAX client it can directly communicate with a AllStar node. That node can be AllStarLink or HAMVOIP. DVSwitch Mobile can also communicate as a USRP client. This is primarily intended to communicate with DVSwitch Server which supports the 5 digital modes. DVSwitch Server is available as a Raspbian image or can be installed on a existing Debian based system. DVSwitch Server can be installed on a existing AllStarLink node since that node is Debian based. HAMVOIP is based on Arch, so the DVSwitch Server install packages can not easily be installed on HAMVOIP. ( we are working on a solution to this) I hope I did not muddy the waters further. 73, Steve N4IRS

Re: ASL to DMR - not receiving inbound traffic
Gerry Filby
Thanks again Brad - I found my mistake in the AMBE_AUDIO section - once I put my DMR ID as the "gatewayDmrId" all started working correctly.
Thanks for your note on making the TG static - I ended removing that and I'm finding that the "auto-static" seems to work really well, the connection to the TG has stayed in place for several hours. Cheers! Gerry, W6WNG
