Implement an optional more manual device/interface selection.

[hmatuschek]

As frequently requested and needed for some very cheap devices (DR-1801), a proper interface and device selection mechanism is needed. The majority of the work is already present.

There are a few things to be done:

• Enable interface selection dialog.
• Enable device selection dialog.
• Allow for disabling the auto-detection.
• Interface specification for CLI.
• Update documentation. Also explain auto-detection mechanism.

Looking forward to testing this ;-)
Thanks,

Enabled device selection for DR-1801UV, also have a look at the settings dialog. There, you can disable the auto-detection, if you want to.

Hi!
I built qdmr-435-implement-manual-device-interface-selection.

In settings I deactivated auto-detect.
Then clicked "download codeplug".

I see no way to select the tty or to select DR1801UV. Maybe I am looking in the wrong places?
Should I select DR1801UV before pressing download? Or should I be asked after pressing download?
And switching off auto-detection doesnt seem to change anything for me.

I tried two different cables, both with the same result.
Both cables report: idVendor=1a86, idProduct=7523

And I found my second DR1801UV which has a working codeplug installed, no difference.

Maybe the zip-file is not yet updated?

Opps, sorry my fault. Yes, I forgot to push the last changes. The interface and device selection dialog should appear, once you clicked download (also on detect and upload).

Hi!
cloned the branch 435, compiled - and yes, I get the dialogue to pick the interface and trx.
But the qdmr crashes while downloading:

Merged into devel.
