Ability to turn off waterfall and spectrum analyser

[skyking_comms]

I also use SDR# and this has the ability to turn off either the waterfall or spectrum analyser and an option to turn off both.
I can't see this option in SDR Console.

For those who run SDR Console on a remote PC you don't always need these to be turned on - plus it would reduce CPU usage

You can reduce the resolution down to 1/8th which will help.

I do use that facility as my GPU gets to about 95% - so reducing it lowers it down to <40%.

Was just surprised that there wasn't an option in SDR Console to turn these off as it's something I use all the time with SDR#

Hopefully an easy option to implement

Sorry, isn't going to happen. If your GPU is at 95% it would be interesting to know more about your computer.

Just to clarify I'm not trying to resolve a high GPU usage - I just like to have the ability to turn off the spectrum analyser and / or waterfall.
Because I have my SDR running 24/7 and I only remote access it from time to time (usually for windows updates) it seems a waste to have the spectrum analyser and waterfall constantly running.

Like I say it's a feature I like in SDR# so thought people might like the option in SDR Console. No problem if it's not possible

Please tell me about your system - 96% GPU is very high, I'm sure I can help.

HP Prodesk 400 G3 SFF - i7 6700 - 16GB ram - GT 1030 2GB GDDR5 GPU
Running a RX-888 @ 32mhz

[Simon G4ELI]

Ah - GT 1030, that explains the high GPU.

Treat yourself to something like the 1650 Super, it'll really help out.

[skyking_comms]

Thanks for the tip Simon. Im restricted by the small form case as it needs a low profile card. But have seen a 1650 low form but it was more expensive than the 1030

Otherwise the i7 6700 works well with the RX-888 No stuttering at 32mhz!

[Simon G4ELI]

1650 Super will be more expensive - it's a much better card.
