Dream is an AM and DRM (Digital Radio Mondiale) software receiver and decoder.
It is a very complete receiver, featuring compliant decoding of HE AAC v2 audio streams, journaline decoding, a feature rich statistics section providing invaluable information about the streams being received, and automatic update of available stations from the web, among several other features.
 
It also features a limited transmission mode, that uses the FAAC AAC encoder.
 
Dream is multi-platform and has been tested on OSX, Win32 and Linux.
 
The source files are available here: http://drm.sourceforge.net
 
For more linux downloads please see the installation instructions at:

https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/drm/index.php?title=Main_Page

and the openSUSE Build Service at:

https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=home:juliancable

Changes since version 1.16:

  * Signal Processing
    - Variable Sample Rate
    - Support I/Q Input at 24 kHz, 48 kHz, 96 kHz and 192 kHz
    - Support I/F Input at 24 kHz, 48 kHz, 96 kHz and 192 kHz
    - select sample rate via command line and GUI
    - Allow separate signal and audio sample rates
    - Support audio sound card sample rates of 8 kHz to 192 kHz

  * GUI - Broadcast Website Viewer
    - complete WebKit based BWS viewer using Qt4
 
  * GUI - Stations Dialog
    - improve sorting of stations
    - Europe was missing in filter
    - save columns width in .ini
    - save columns order in .ini
    - left justify numbers in Qt4
    - add sorting by active/inactive

  * GUI - Other
    - enable Input/Output channel selection from GUI
    - improved help display
    - report on main window if no codec library is found 
    - I/O interface LED was not reporting output error
    - allow files to be opened for playback from menu

  * Logging
    - make delay for starting logfiles work again
    - change support for DRM Logger
       - old method of DRM Logger controlling Dream GUI is not compatible with Qt4
       - now Dream will read DRM Logger ini files and run the schedule
       - either DRM Logger or Dream but not both should control the rig

  * Transmitter
    Transmitter can now optionally send the time

  * Miscellaneous
    - Remove support for process priority on windows
    - remove dependency on qt3support
    - save and restore menu plot style 
    - AFS, EPG, MOT files now stored in datafiles subfolders
    - Removed frequency edit box on Evaluation Dialog - was only useful for DRMLogger
    - sound device selection now by name rather than number to avoid problems with hot-plugging
    - fixed a bug in the buffering system which might help the old problem since 1.9.7 with regular sync losses on a few soundcards

The binaries are compiled without support for AAC decoding or encoding.
 
If you want to hear the audio of a DRM broadcast you will need to obtain or build the faad2_drm library.
 
Instructions for building faad2_drm.dll/.so/.dylib and faac_drm.dll/.so/.dylib are available at drm.sf.net. 
 
If you want to control a SW Rig you will need additional hamlib dlls. 
 
These are available at www.hamlib.org. 
 
On linux the procedure is similar and libfaad2_drm.so and hamlib .so files will be needed.
 
Have fun with dream
