Hi all,

I need to delay a tag in my stream only, not the sample it is attached  
to.  
I’m looking for the equivalent of a delay block, but for tags. Does  
anyone  
know of a way of doing this in grc?

v/r,  
Rich

The best way to do that would probably be to create a block that  
disables tag propagation and then reinserted the tags at the right  
sample offset based on your desired delay.
