All working nicely but wonder when sdr play devices will be added ?

Well, I do not have any SDR Play device. I would be difficult to add support them "blindly" without having the HW :-(

EDIT: It might be supported using SoapySDR

Yes sure but there are some second hand ones on ebay I see or maybe you can borrow one etc. There are very very popular now amoung sdr users

If someone offers to lend me his device for the time necessary to implement support for that in the application I will do it.

Is it not about whather I can afford it or not. I do not want to invest mora than 100 EUR to purchase a HW just to be able to add support for it in application that I give for free. And on top of that I doubt it is worth the money for static DAB reception, there is only marginal benefit compared to cheap RTL-SDR USB stick.

Well that's shame as the rsp1a and the rsp dx are far more sensitive and selective than a RTL SDR in my experience when used with Qirx. Hoping someone can lend you one for you to add support

Well, it should be significantly better considering the price.
Have you tried with SoapySDR? AbracaDABra supports SoapySDR and SDR Play is supported https://github.com/pothosware/SoapySDRPlay3/wiki

All to complex to set up. I hope you can simply add sdr play support eventually
