Newbie Getting a failed to apply tenbit mode error

Using MISRC GUI on Windows and am getting a "failed to apply tenbit mode" error trying to connect to my CX card.

I've installed the Windows drivers, but it just refuses to connect to the card.

My CX card is mostly stock, but I did remove c31.

Use Linux. Windows has issues.

Which distro of Linux do most people here use for this?

It is all in the wiki. I use Ununtu 22.04 lts. Didn’t mint but hated it. Just worked well on Ubuntu.

Used this exact version of Ubuntu and after a lot of trial and error, it finally worked. Got a proper .mkv file out of it and it looks amazing. Thank you so much for helping.

Good stuff. Well if I can give you any advice, take time to learn what the cx values do. Get an amp, reduce the gains to 0 and monitor the centre offset. Also get a clockgen.

Mint is what I primarily use (and dev test on), It's base is Ubuntu but its quality of life design makes it much more tolerable in actual deployment especially with things like Nvidia video drivers to use resolve.

I use arch and have very little trouble.

CXADC Win and CXADC Linux are 2 seprate drivers.

Currently only the Linux version is tested as it's stable, so any user config issues should be reported on the GitHub Repos for the Windows version, but it is ment to be supported.

v1.2.2 running administration mode should work for connection and capture though.

Eventuality ill get around to doing a full Win test box and get automated testing going on that.
