Access to USB Hardware?

Post by DonJuan »

I want to access an SDR (software defined radio) receiver using the program HDSDR. Windows software, of course.

It uses a native DLL to access the SDR hardware which is connected to the PC via USB. Everything looks good, the native DLL is loaded, even with WINEDEBUG=+loaddll I can't see an error. However the receiver isn't working. The program tells me that the DLL isn't functional.

The author told me that this is because wine is not able to access the USB hardware. Is this still true? I just upgraded to wine 4.0.2
Any switches, workarounds?

It properly won’t work but try Wine-5.7
