bjorneandClaude Opus 5 d5d32bd05e Initial layout: README, changelog and Gitea release upload script

Binaries only, no source. Windows .exe/.msi go up as release attachments
(they are 64-77 MB each, too big for git history); .deb packages are
committed under debs/ like the other *-deb repos.

Raw Blame History

darthvader — downloads

Prebuilt packages for darthvader, the native desktop client for digital voice (M17 / DMR / YSF / NXDN / D-STAR / P25, EchoLink, AllStar, SvxLink, APRS, POCSAG) with DV3000 USB AMBE+2 support.

This repository contains binaries only — no source. Source lives in a separate private repository; the published sources of the GPL components ship with each package.

Windows

Download from the latest release:

File	For
`darthvader-<version>-win64.exe`	Normal install (NSIS), Start menu + desktop shortcut
`darthvader-<version>-win64.msi`	MSI, for unattended/managed deployment

Windows 10/11 64-bit. The packages are not code-signed, so SmartScreen shows a warning — choose More info → Run anyway. Everything is bundled (Qt, codecs, LADSPA plugins); nothing else needs installing.

Silent install:

darthvader-<version>-win64.exe /S
msiexec /i darthvader-<version>-win64.msi /qn

DV3000 / ThumbDV / DVstick sticks appear as COM ports through the FTDI VCP driver and are detected automatically. If audio stutters, lower the port's Latency Timer to 1–2 ms in Device Manager → Port Settings → Advanced.

Debian / Raspberry Pi OS

.deb packages in debs/ — bookworm and trixie, amd64 and arm64 (Pi Zero 2 W and newer):

sudo apt install ./darthvader_<version>_<arch>.deb
