I need to get a few traffic data bytes ~ 16 B from my dongle. libusb's bulk transfer and therefore rtlsdr_read_sync, will fail with -8 if used with less than 1024 B. Can anyone think of another way to read them? (async also uses libusb's fill_bulk_transfer :-()
Read more and throw the rest away, what's the issue with that? But what do you need *16 bytes* for? That's just 62.5µs of samples...
I could possibly use rtlsdr_read_array, except that i don't know the block and address that I need to use for traffic data :-(
Those functions trigger control transfers and have nothing to do with the actual I/Q samples at all, so no, you can't use them.
I have no idea what you're trying to accomplish, but it seems to me whatever it is, you are completely off track.
