Device specification

       You can specify the source or sink device using a comma separated string of argument=value
       pairs. The always-up-to-date block documentation with examples is available ​right here.

              0-based device identifier, optional

       device=hw:2
              overrides the audio device

       type=2 selects the dongle type, 1 for Classic, 2 for Pro+

       The "device" argument overrides the audio device used by the underlying driver  to  access
       the dongle's IQ sample stream.

       The "type" argument selects the dongle type, 1 for Classic, 2 for Pro+.

       direct_samp=0|1|2
              Enable direct sampling mode on the RTL chip. 0: Disable, 1: use I channel, 2: use Q
              channel

       offset_tune=0|1
              Enable offset tune mode for E4000 tuners

       NOTE: use rtl_eeprom -s to program your own serial number to the device

       NOTE: if you don't specify rtl_xtal/tuner_xtal, the underlying driver will use 28.0MHz

       Additional argument/value pairs  will  be  passed  to  the  underlying  driver,  for  more
       information  see  ​specifying  the  subdevice  and ​common device identifiers in the Ettus
       documentation.

       hackrf Use this argument without a value

       buffers=<number-of-buffers>
              Default is 32

       Only the first device found may be used at the moment because of libhackrf limitation.

       Transmit support has been verified by using the crc-mmbTools DAB sdr transmitter.
