Is it possible that you share this script or at least the build parameters that you use to built tvheadend with Autobuild.sh?

Thank you!

Nihil Baxter

Its just a simple script (i named it build.sh):

#!/bin/sh cd /home/hts/build/tvheadend #thats my cloned git repo git pull #getting newest build from git ./Autobuild.sh #i'm using no special parameters, only autobuild script which comes with repo cd /home/hts/build #one folder back mv tvheadend_*.deb /home/pi/download #moving new debfile to another folder rm tvheadend-dbg*.deb #deleting unnecessary files rm tvheadend_*.changes # " cp /home/pi/download/tvheadend_*.deb /media/netzlaufwerke/banana-wwwroot/tvheadend #copying that to samba-shared folders on my banana pro cp /home/pi/download/tvheadend_*.deb /media/netzlaufwerke/banana-home/download # "

As you see, nothing special, just typing ./build.sh and all running and copying files to where i want to have that. I set some crontab to build this once every night.If you want to have transcoding or hdhomerun, you have to compile some stuff, but thats not easy and i didnt need that...but i think there are some tutorials at the web. As i said, i'm just a linux noob with less skills in coding ;)

Good news, last build 198 has transcode support.....installing ffmpeg and all needed stuff and getting that working really sucks.. ;)

Klaus D.

could you elaborate on this? what do you mean that it has transcode support?

I could already since a long time compile TVH like this:

AUTOBUILD_CONFIGURE_EXTRA=--enable-libffmpeg_static ./Autobuild.sh

and have transcode support. But it was unusable on the Pi(2).

Do you mean that it has hardware support on the Rpi now and it runs smoothly?
Is it compiled in by default or do I have to compile it as above?
Are there detailed instructions somewhere?

Nihil Baxter

I managed to install newer ffmpeg, before --enable-libffmpeg_static produces no package with enabled transcode.
I tested my new package and it works on Banana Pro, but not very good. I started some test recordings, but after some time server crashes.
Btw, was just a test and i don't need this feature, if i would transcode some video i do that under Windows, much more comfortable ;)

Yesterday, looking for some stable version of TVHeadend on the RPi3 I saw this thread. I however found a more recent somewhat stable version:

OpenElec 6.0.3 with TVHeadend 4.08 from the unofficial addons.
