Hi
My SDR console has suddenly stopped working with my RTL SDR dongle.
It starts up and I select the dongle, but nothing shows up on the waterfall and no sound comes out the speakers.
And when I close SDR Console it crashes.
My RSP1a works fine with SDR Console
Any help would be grateful to sort this out.

Re: SDR Console Crashing (mb)
There is a lockup problem within rtlsdr dongles. Have you shut down (not restarted) your computer and restarted it or disconnected the dongle and reconnected it to see if that fixes the problem. The dongle lockup requires a hard reset for the dongle, loss of power and internal reboot when power is reapplied. Pulling the dongle and plugging it back in is a simple but annoying cure to an annoying property of the dongles.
If you tried that, what was the last thing you did to the machine before the problem began? Have you tried a different USB port? Does it appear in Device Manager?

Hi
Yes, I shut down the PC and unplugged and reconnected the dongle and it's the same.
The same RTL SDR works with SDRSharp on the same PC
And I tried with 2 other RTL SDR dongles
Nothing changed with the PC and it worked a few days before with no problems
Same dongle works with SDR Console on another PC.
I also used another USB port
How do you do a hard reset on the Dongle?

Try deleting the radio (RTL dongle) from the Radio Definitions and add him again.
