These changes were made for version 1.2.15 to support the HiQSDR program
qsdr.
I have been able to hand patch them into master and next where the
filenames change from “audio_alsa_source." to "alsa_source.” and they
both build without problems.
The problem I have with qsdr – the audio always runs for around 30
seconds then goes silent until qsdr is restarted and it happens again.
The waterfall, graph and all controls in the qsdr app continue to work.
This is just a heads up in case someone can see a problem with them
included.
I shall take this up with the author of qsdr to see if he can see a
problem in qsdr that may have been introduced by including this patch in
later than 1.2.15 and if changes to qsdr are needed.
