Title: iNavx and GPSD
#4
Thanks for this bit of information!

Now to give something back: if you want to use UDP broadcast you can use
Code:
gpspipe -r | socat -  UDP-DATAGRAM:192.168.1.255:5000,broadcast

then you can configure INavX to listen with just the port number, no server ip required. The trick is to use your local network's broadcast address.

You can check that this works by issuing

Code:
nc -lu 5000
on another machine. For some reason it only prints a few lines and then stop, but in INavX NMEA configuration screens the data flowing if things are working.
