[WIP] PVR Client Addon for XBMC for EPG and full control of Dreambox and DBox2

Has anything changed in the vu client addon recently, the only reason i ask is that i compiled mine wed night and not sure if its worth me compiling again.

Don't quote me on this as I get the feeling our linux knowledge is about the same (nerdy but inexperienced), but as far as I know if you keep the folders on linux as they are and then "git pull" (pulls the changes from the git source) and then run the compile commands again it only re-compiles the changes and should take a fraction of the time.

This requires you to keep the "build.OpenELEC_PVR-ION.i386-devel" folder exactly how it is and dont make any changes after you've used it. The git folder must be the same as well, basicly dont touch anything after your compile then.

Changes are being made often but not always relevant to your build, you can see these if you visit Jdemski's git page.

Very much a baptism of fire for me, if someone neglects one line of a "how to" I get confused lol

redknight, the reason why it takes so long time to make OE is that EVERY single package is compiled. Not only XBMC. The reason for non-working zip is probably different version of some library or something like that. I make everything in little less than 2 hour.

Like I suspected:

Quote:Dynamic Section:
NEEDED libcurl-gnutls.so.4

OE doesn't have this library because OE curl version is compiled with openssl and not gnutls.

Rednight what source are you using for the git pull


git clone https://github.com/OpenELEC/OpenELEC.tv.git

git clone https://github.com/OpenELEC/OpenELEC.tv/pull/326

Ultarman is it best i deleate my clone and start a new one afresh as i remember i added your patch that you suggested on the OE Forum or just update.

[GUIDE] How to build your own OpenELEC distro

We using the same git clone https://github.com/OpenELEC/OpenELEC.tv.git then.Sorry im new to all this stuff

While im here is it best to keep the OpenELEC-XXXX.XXXX.devel files.

So, how to we rectify this? without a complete recompile. Now that you've added it to the master git does that mean that the daily builds (http://sources.openelec.tv/tmp/image/openelec-pvr/) will include the addon and hence we won't have to compile it ourselves and it'll just work?

P.S. what's the difference in the automatic compile each night and us doing it ourselves? i.e. why openssl and not gnutls

I get this when i try and re-clone

marcus@mediaPc:~$ cd Documents
marcus@mediaPc:~/Documents$ git clone https://github.com/OpenELEC/OpenELEC.tv.git
fatal: destination path 'OpenELEC.tv' already exists and is not an empty directory.

Just wait few more days that devel builds of OE are made. Then you can forget all about building image

markus625, first delete old folder

Ultraman is it possible for me to add my own asound.conf allready configured for my setup and add a netmount.conf for my nfs shares as i prefered this as apposed to adding them manually etc.
