Linux feeder software for Flightradar24 (Old software)

[EGGD11]

Nah,, this is more than likely just the feeder. Please consider switching to the new decoder/feeder as this one will be phased out soon.

Sorry to be a pain, but could you point me in the right direction for the new decoder/feeder?

I don't think the feeder that gives you that error.
Could be related to your SD card, power supply, etc
Do some trial and error.

Segmentation fault

I'm a novice to this and wondering what the "Segmentation fault" is?

Any help is apreciated.

Does the Linux feeder software have built-in decoder? I'm running dump1090, and it seems to be having some problems communicating, with frequent "[e]Data feed time difference too big abs( - )=2880" errors.

you should be running ntpd, if you are, run ntpq -p and check you have a "*" (star) against your upstream time server under LOCAL, and that its "st" value is not above 10

eg:

remote refid st t when poll reach delay offset jitter
================================================== ========
LOCAL(0) .LOCL. 10 l 5d 64 0 0.000 0.000 0.000
*ntp.ausics.net 203.14.0.250 3 u 259 1024 377 0.127 3.508 2.192

Ok, but then it is not really Linux Feeder Software issue You should get in touch with the FR24 Support Team via eMail.

Yes, but how does the Stats Page on your 2nd Pi (Account) looks like ? Is that Pi Online and Feeding ? It is a bit confused because you wrote that you can't access premium on your 2nd Account... Thats why I wrote that

My problem is that I cannot get to the stats page because there is no account associated with it. In fact that is the problem: I have a fr24key but it is not associated with an account.
The 2nd feeder is working because I saw it as active radar on the main FR24 page.

Check on the 2nd Pi what the Feeder Software do

What do you mean? It is just feeding fine. Normal log, same as the first RPi, only other radar name and slightly different coordinates.

I removed the environment variable (FR@$AUTHIP) and now it works fine.

I am feeding with 2 raspberry pi's. Only one is shown on my feeders page. How can I 'claim' the second one? The fr24key for the second one was obtained using another email address. I also cannot use that email address to access the premium features.

Is that .deb Package compatible with my Banana Pi (Bananian) ?

Yes, it's compatible with Banana Pi from what users reported. You can also use a standalone version if you don't want to run it as root.

Please have a look here for the new build. We will be phasing out the old feeder soon... but if you don't want to update twice, please give us a few more days as there will be a new version soon including data timestamps.
