RDS95

RDS95 is a ligth software RDS encoder for linux

RDS95 follows the IEC 62106 standard (available at the RDS Forum website)

Diffrences between IEC 62106 and EN 50067

The newer standard which is the IEC one, removes these features:

• MS
• PIN
• LIC
• DI (partially, only dynamic pty is left)

Unique features

RDS95 is the only RDS2 encoder to have a independent tunneling feature, where you can pick the group sequence from the RDS2 stream in order to speed up the transmission of RT or LPS (in my tests, this helps a lot)

Commands

PS

Sets the Program Service: PS=* RDS *

PI

Sets the PI code: PI=FFFF

TP

Sets the TP flag: TP=1

TA

PTY values are diffrent for RDS and RDBS, look for them online
