I have RDS decoder also, but it is very ugly and not all issues are solved.

Thanks for testing, is it 32bit arch?

All memory buffers used in SSE should be 16bit aligned, please try no SSE version: rtl_fm -X -F 2 -J 5 -f yourfreq Also you can try modified rtl_fm version i send as attachment which use memalign to allocate buffers instead of malloc, but it is only for gcc.

On X86_64 platform all malloc are 16bit aligned so i missed this. Those errors when compiling are not important, but also in SSE part.
