- Update to version 2.5.0
* Added --max-ppm <ppm> option which drops messages if their PPM
error exceeds a configured threshold. This is useful for
filtering out loud message crosstalk from adjacent channels and
avoiding cross-channel duplicates.
* --oversample option may now be used for any input type, not
only --iq-file.
* Decoding of raw frames from standard input is now done without
buffering. This improves interaction with 3rd party message
generators and simulators.

- Update to version 2.4.0
* Allow specifying frequencies in kHz, MHz or GHz. Frequencies
might be specified in Hertz (as integer numbers) or in kHz,
MHz, GHz (as integer or floating-point numbers followed by any
of the following suffixes: k, K, m, M, g, G). This applies to
the --centerfreq option argument and VDL2 channel frequencies.
* Added support for RTLSDR bias tee. "--bias 1" command line
option enables it, "--bias 0" disables. Default: disabled.
* Fix RTLSDR device selection. If the --rtlsdr option argument
is exactly 8 characters long, the program will now always
attempt to find the device by its serial number rather than by
the device index. Now "--rtlsdr 00000002" means "device with a
serial number 00000002" rather than "device with and index of 2
* Exit on SoapySDR errors. If the program is unable to continue
reading samples from the radio, it terminates, so that it could
be restarted by the service manager (eg. systemd).
* Do not round timestamps to the nearest millisecond, truncate
it instead. Rounding may have caused message timestamps to be
pushed forward.
* Report loud (ie. possibly overloaded) messages via statsd
statistics. Introduces a new counter "decoder.msg.good_loud"
which gets incremented on every good message with a signal
level above 0 dBFS. Might be useful for tuning SDR gain levels
* Enable IF bandwidth filter on RTLSDR and SoapySDR devices.
This could potentially help in noisy environments by improving
rejection of nearby strong signals. The filter is automatically
enabled if supported by the SDR.
* Print Maintenance/Initialized (M/I) status bit in text output
of X.25 Call.
Request and Call Accepted messages.

- Update to version 2.3.0
* Allow reading raw frames or I/Q data from standard input. To
enable this, specify "-" as the argument to --iq-file or
--raw-frames-file option, respectively.
* Added --prettify-json command line option which enables
prettification of JSON payloads in libacars >= 2.2.0.
This currently applies to OHMA messages only.
* Fixed incompatibility with libacars 2.2.0 which might cause a
crash during reassembly of CLNP packets.

- Update to version 2.2.0
* Added support for reassembly of multipart CLNP and COTP packets.
This brings the ability to decode ADS-C v2 messages which are
too large to fit in a single CLNP / COTP packet, even if
fragmented in the X.25 layer.
* Added proper formatting of Route Clearance CPDLC message
elements. Removed the obsolete 8-channel limit. The maximum
number of VDL2 channels that can be decoded simultaneously is
now limited only by the hardware.
* Station ID (specified with --station-id option) is now
appended to the StatsD namespace if StatsD metric collection
is enabled. For example, if the station ID is set to KLAX, the
new namespace would be "dumpvdl2.KLAX" instead of just
"dumpvdl2". This allows simultaneous monitoring of several
dumpvdl2 instances separately in Grafana.
* Fixed a crash which occurred when the ground station list
file could not be opened.

- Update to version 2.1.0
* Added full JSON formatting for all protocols and message types.
This is supported on all output types - file, udp and zmq.
Together with multiple outputs feature that was introduced in
version 2.0.0 this enables arbitrarily flexible arrangements,
like logging to a file as text, logging to another file as JSON
and sending JSON across the network using UDP and/or ZMQ. When
collecting data from multiple receivers, --station-id option
may be used to assign unique names to receivers in order to
discriminate input from each one.
* Removed a few duplicate routines that have their counterparts
in libacars.

- Update to versino 2.0.1
* Fixed build failure with gcc version 10.
- Update to version 2.0.0
* Major overhaul of the output subsystem. The new architecture
is modular, multithreaded and can easily be extended with new
output drivers. It also allows using multiple outputs
simultaneously.
* New output configuration scheme. --output-file --daily,
--hourly and --output-acars-pp options have been removed.
All outputs are now configured using --output option.
Adjusting command line parameters is therefore required to run
the program. Run dumpvdl2 --output help for instructions or
see "Output configuration" section in README.md for details
and examples.
* Support for streaming messages over network using UDP/IP.
* Support for streaming messages over network using ZeroMQ
publisher sockets. Requires libzmq library.
* Support for storing AVLC frames as raw data (without decoding)
in binary files for archiving purposes. File contents can
then be decoded anytime later, as if the frames were just
* received from the air. Requires protobuf-c library.
* Minor bugfixes.

- Update to version 1.10.1
* Added support for SDRPlay API version 3 which is required for
new devices (notably RSPdx). API version 2 is still supported,
however it will probably be removed in a future release. It is
possible to have both versions installed simultaneously and to
choose which one to use at runtime. See README.md for details.
* Added --milliseconds option which enables printing timestamps
in message headers up to a millisecond precision. Note that the
arrival timestamp is stored per VDL2 burst, not per VDL2
message. Since a VDL2 burst may contains more than one VDL2
message, all messages extracted from a single burst will still
have exactly the same timestamp value, regardless of whether
millisecond precision has been enabled or not.

- Update to version 1.9.0
* Added decoder for ISO 8650 / X.227 Association Control Service
(ACSE).
* Improved decoder for ISO 8327 / X.225 Session Protocol.
* Restructured code of ATN applications decoder. The previous
implementation was a little messy and was unable to handle a
few uncommon types of messages (like ACSE Abort PDU with no
payload). This should bring the number of undecoded ATN
messages down to zero.
* Enable debugging output from SDRPlay driver only if
--debug sdr option is used.
* Fix formatting of geo coordinates in ADS-C v2 messages.

- Update to version 1.8.0
* Support for ATN-B2 Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Contract
(ADS-C) version 2.
* Support for automatic reassembly of multiblock ACARS messages,
MIAM file transfers and fragmented X.25 packets. Contents of
reassembled messages is now logged in one piece and passed
upwards to decoders of higher layer protocols / applications.
Thanks to this, many large messages which so far were decoded
partially and logged with "Unparseable ... PDU" errors due to
fragmentation, are now decoded correctly.
* StatsD metrics for monitoring reassembly engine performance
have been added.
* Logged messages may be enriched with ground stations details
read from a text file in MultiPSK GS format. Look up --gs-file
and --addrinfo options in README.md and dumpvdl2 usage text for
more details.
* Logged messages may be enriched with aircraft details read from
a Basestation SQLite database. SQLite3 library must be installed
prior to compiling dumpvdl2 in order for this feature to be
enabled. Look up --bs-db and --addrinfo options in README.md and
dumpvdl2 usage text for more details. Database entries are
cached in memory. There are new StatsD metrics for monitoring
performance and utilization of the cache.
* New --prettify-xml option enables pretty-printing of XML
documents carried in ACARS and MIAM CORE messages. The purpose
is to improve readability. If enabled, XML content will be
printed as multiline text with proper indentation. This
requires libacars built with libxml2 support.
* ACARS sublabel and MFI fields are now stripped from message text
and logged as separate fields (if present).

- Update to version 1.7.1
* Fixed an issue where a truncated or corrupted ICAO APDU could
cause a crash in ASN.1 decoder.
* Fixed an issue where NULL characters in XID attribute values
could cause them do be printed partially. Any non-printable
characters in octet strings printed as text are now replaced
with periods.
- Update to version 1.7.0
* Complete overhaul of output generation code.
* Significant enhancements to CLNP, COTP and IDRP decoders.
Most if not all protocol headers are now decoded and included
in the output.
* Added a decoder for X.225 Session Protocol SPDUs.
* Added a decoder for VDL SNDCF error reports.
* XID: improved decoding of XID sequencing, Frequency support
and System mask attributes.
* X.25: improved decoding of facility fields, call clearing
causes and diagnostic codes.
* Minor bug fixes.

- Update to version 1.6.0
* New build system based on cmake.
* FANS/1-A CPDLC, ADS-C and ACARS decoders have been removed.
These features have been moved to libacars library, which is
now a mandatory dependency
* Added support for SoapySDR library. However there are still
some limitations with respect to SDR types which dumpvdl2
can work with. As of now, the device must support a sampling
rate of 2100000 samples per second. This will be addressed in
a future release.
* Minor bugfixes

- Update to version 1.4.0
* Major improvements to the DSP and decoding engine - gives much
better decoding success rate, especially for weak transmissions
from distant aircraft.
* Each VDL2 channel is now processed in a separate thread, which
allows balancing the load onto multiple CPU cores.
* Fixed a nasty decoder bug which caused good frames to be
corrupted during decoding stage and therefore missed.
* Added CRC checking for ACARS messages. If there is a CRC
mismatch, the message will still be logged, but with an
appropriate warning.
* New StatsD metric avlc.msg.air2air - counts messages from
aircraft to aircraft (however strange it seems, such things
happen in real life).
* New StatsD metric decoder.errors.too_long - counts VDL2 bursts
dropped due to unreasonably large value in the length field.
* Due to changes in the decoding engine, the following StatsD
metric are now obsolete and have been removed:
avlc.errors.no_flag_start, avlc.errors.no_flag_end,
decoder.errors.no_preamble.
* Added --extended-header command line option which causes a few
decoder diagnostic parameters to be logged for each message.
Refer to the FAQ in README.md for description of the fields.
* Other minor bugfixes and improvements.
* C11-capable compiler is now required to build the program.

- Update to version 1.2.0
* Better input signal filtering - reduced bit error rate, 10-50% more
messages successfully decoded.
* SDRPlay: major bugfixes in sample buffer handling code - shall now
perform equally well as RTLSDR (or even better).
* SDRPlay: --gain knob replaced with --gr (gain reduction). This makes
gain configuration in dumpvdl2 compatible with other SDRPlay apps.
See README.md for details.
* SDRPlay: support for selecting device by serial number.
Added optional build-time PLATFORM knob which sets CPU-specific
* compiler flags to optimize the code for various flavours of
Raspberry Pi. Supported values: rpiv1, rpiv2, rpiv3.
* Other minor bug fixes
