Check The output of a block & input captured frames to GNURadio

I want to make a test and see the output , I put 3 blocks , vector
source ,
throttle and vector sink . I edited the “vector” parameter in vector
source
block to (6,6). All 3 blocks have a type “byte”. I generated the flow
graph.
I moved to the directory of grc file , I wrote in terminal
vim top_block.py
then I write to the end of file : " print
tb.blocks_vector_sink_x_0.data()"
and saved the changes . Then I execute the python file by writing in
terminal :
./top_block.py
But the output takes too long time and doesn’t appear ! what is the
problem
?
and is there any other method to see the output ???As I am a beginner
and
someone told me this method.
I tried this for example 10 times but every time it takes too long and
doesn’t appear , only one time it appears!

Another question :
If I have captured some frames using wireshark (from twinkle softphone),
and I saved them .I want to make them an input to ofdm transmitter .
How
to make them an input?

Thanks :slight_smile:

I found that “tb.wait()” is written in the file so it takes too long
time .
Now after I erased tb.wait() … the output on terminal is —> ( ) … I
don’t know why ?? Here is what is written in top_block.py

Don’t erase stuff because it takes time…
tb.wait() is necessary to let the top block wait for all the work to
finish.
GNU Radio flowgraphs will run until a) a block signals that it’s done,
or b) the flow graph is stopped.
I think you want to use the “a)” approach. Add a Head block into your
flowgraph:
http://gnuradio.org/doc/doxygen/classgr_1_1blocks_1_1head.html

Your flow graph will then terminate after a specified number of
samples has passed the head block.

So what your program does is
tb.start()
tb.wait()
outpput=sink.data()

Greetings,
Marcus

of grc file , I wrote in terminal vim top_block.py then I write
