Well actually it works really well on Windows with no issues at all, its based on Python and the ssdv encoding software already available for Windows anyway. But I agree that its better to run on Linux.
We already tried this very early version transmitting to a satellite few weeks ago and wrote a blog about it.
I’m in progress to make an all in one zip file to be as a beginner friendly as possible, so you can download and extract the folder and it all ready to go without needing to installing anything. Including the Direwolf, Sox and embeddable Python.
I hope ssdv will get more popular in the future
