Hi Guys here is my Dump1090 settings:
dump1090.exe --device-index 1 --interactive --net --net-ro-size 500 --net-ro-rate 5 --net-buffer 5 --net-beast --mlat --gain -10
pause

I have tried playing with settings in VRS but for some reason I cannot see my feed on custom feeds.

I'm a newbie here myself, but I cannot connect to my feed either. I know that there was maintenance being carried out on Saturday and it is possible that it is continuing today. One of the regulars will be along in a while to confirm or assist. It would be handy if there was some way of indicating when maintenance is taking place so that we don't all spend hours trying to fix a problem that does not really exist.

Try looking at MDA-PL's receiver. It covers Netherlands and Poland. If you can see that then you at least know that your VRS configuration is working. What computer are you using? RaspPi? Can you see if adsexchange-netcat-maint.sh is actually connecting or spending its time in a sleep loop - which would indicate that your feed is not being accepted by adsbexchange server - which is exactly the case I find myself in although I have been feeding successfully for 6 days now.

 

Hi janrinok, when I look at MDA-PL on the custom feeds and I select that receiver I can see aircraft and I'm using dongle setup with Dump 1090.

OK, so you know that the connection from ADSBEx to your VRS is good. So it looks like your feed to them is not getting where it should - mine is doing exactly the same thing. What OS are you using - linux or windows?

 

Windows 10 64bit

 

Well, I am a Linux man so I know very little about getting my hands dirty in Windows code.
You can obviously see your data in your own browser, I think that you said you are using VRS. (Have you tried typing '127.0.0.1/dump1090' in a browser, just to see if you can see your data anyway?)

My feed has just re-established contact so maybe yours will do likewise shortly...

 

Hi, yes I can see aircraft I'm tracking using http://127.0.0.1/VirtualRadar/desktop.html

Jonny

 

Yes, but that is using VirtualRadar. My dump1090 generates its own display without having to start VRS directly. Same display but using OpenStreetMap data, not Google.

 

I'm just reading up on VRS feeds and using Windows 10, so that I can try to suggest something that might help

 

It seems to be saying that VRS feeds should be on the 53xxx ports and not the 51xxx ports. As I don't know VRS very well, could you be trying to connect to the wrong port?

Let me know if you get it working - sorry I couldn't help very much.

 

Hi Guys, thanks for all your replies entered new info into dump1090 and it wont start just hangs at the command prompt screen with press any key to continue here is my dump file:
dump1090.exe --interactive --net --net-ro-port 30002 --net-beast --oversample --phase-enhance --mlat --lat 51.532173 --lon -0.084662 --gain -10
pause

 

Hi MDA, got dump1090 running just trying to get mlat running hanging at command prompt screen with user showing here is my mlat bat file:

mlat-client.exe --lat 51.532173 --lon -0.084662 --alt 24.29 --JBBHackney --input-host localhost --input-type dump1090 --input-port 30005 --output-host feed.adsbexchange.com --output-port 31090 --no-udp
pause

 

Hi MDA, getting this error when starting mlat:

mlat - client.exe: error : the following arguments are required: - user

Cant tell if its trying to connect also I'm using new port zcons 53088 so can now see my feed on custom feeds.
