SP5LOT DVB-S2 decoder and MX Uploader (SkyEdge) 1.0.0
Windows receiver for DVB-S2 video from high-altitude balloons (RTL-SDR or HackRF One) with SSDV photos and upload to the SkyEdge MX merger, plus MX Uploader for other decoders.
Inside the receiver, the DVB-S2 demodulator is leandvb from leansdr by pabr, and the LDPC decoder is ldpc_tool by Ahmet Inan (adapted by pabr), both with our patches. This is an unofficial program, not affiliated with the leansdr author: please report problems here, not upstream.
Download: extract all files of the ZIP into one folder and run leandvb_gui.exe (receiver) or mx_uploader.exe (MX Uploader). How to use them: the README on the main page (also README.txt in the ZIPs).
