You're welcome.
My buildscript is really a custom script that automates the steps needed to build OpenELEC with a different XBMC version. I could share it, but it is not pretty nor perfect.
The steps it takes care of for me:
  • Pull and create TAR of XBMC source (this script is from OpenELEC's tree).
  • Copy TAR to local webserver
  • Checkout & Pull OpenELEC tree
  • Patch xbmc-pvr's meta file (modify package source and version)
  • Modify libboost build script (include filesystem lib)
  • Rename xbmc-pvr's patch files
  • Exclude patches that conflict with alternative xbmc source (trial & error)
  • Add custom/personal patches (for debugging)
  • Build target(s)
  • Rename target(s) (so that they are easier to track afterwards)
  • Undo (well try) all modifications done to OpenELEC tree.

I have some options for which XBMC source to get (tsp's or mine) and whether to do debugging and this is where it gets to get messy.
Sometimes my OpenELEC tree gets messed up with changes that weren't undone and since untracked file are not removed on a normal checkout, I sometimes have to manually clean the tree.
Let me know if you dare to use it, then I'll post it.

I dare :-D
thanks

ION x86_64
Ultra x86_64
(at time of uploading/writing it is no longer latest... the GIT hash tag is in the filename)

Thanks for the upload InoD! Just what I was looking for Smile

I asked in another thread if CMyth for Openelec existed... popped my head in here and bam there is was Cool

checking for main in -ltinyxml... no
configure: error: Could not find a required library. Please see the README for your platform.

You're missing the tinyxml library. Check the README file or post #11 of this thread for all the dependencies you have to install before you can compile.

The main script: openelec.sh
Patch file for boost: openelec_boost_filesystem.patch
Patch file for ffmpeg: xbmc-pvr-disable_libavcodec_codec_names_script.patch
mkpkg_xbmc-pvr is coming from OpenELEC tree and is only modified to point to tsp's repo (and branch).

Have fun! Smile

Just a quick note on the audio issues, I'm having the same problems, even when using the xbmc-pvr git tree, so I believe this may be a larger problem from upstream with certain hardware/audio combinations at present. I found recompiling again made it work, so I'm unsure what the actual root cause is here.

HTS Tvheadend development (via http://github.com/andyb2000) On Ubuntu with ST STV0299 DVB-S, Conexant CX24116/CX24118, Philips TDA10046H DVB-T (Freesat and Freeview in the UK) XML from EIT/DVB/Freesat.

I am happily using branch Eden-pvr. No more audio issues, MythTV works and so does the slingbox source.. I will wait for Audioengines to become more stable.
