Keep DSP state persistent across generated frames, move the RDS encoder to arbitrary sample-rate operation, and tune the Pluto profile to the working 2.28 MHz path with the levels that finally decode reliably.
Replace the pilot-derived RDS path with a PiFmRds-style 228 kHz shaped biphase generator, resample it into the composite loop, and retune Pluto example levels plus spectral thresholds around the new RDS behaviour.
Drive RDS in the offline/MPX path from the pilot-locked 57 kHz carrier with biphase symbol timing, and adjust Pluto example levels plus spectral thresholds for the new multiplex behaviour.
Write PlutoSDR TX samples via per-channel buffer pointers from iio_buffer_first instead of assuming a fixed interleaved layout. Also derive the 38 kHz stereo subcarrier directly from the pilot phase to guarantee phase coherence for the FM stereo multiplex.
Clarify that outputDrive controls only the composite signal path while PlutoSDR hardware gain stays fixed at 0 dB. Relax outputDrive validation to allow stronger composite drive during hardware tuning and update the Pluto example config accordingly.
Introduce CLI TX mode, hardware driver selection, IQ resampling to device rate, and platform-specific PlutoSDR/SoapySDR integrations. Update engine pacing for blocking hardware writes and refresh docs/release notes for the hardware-ready v0.6.0-pre milestone.
