HOW-TO Compile Tvheadend & HDHomerun on Synology NAS
of course, it is my bad. Fixed. Thank you!
Reply
Guys,

I would like to kindly ask you for a new build of tvheadend for ppc (qoriq). I use aisman's build 3.9.277 but this not very stable on my Synology DS213+.

Would this be possible?

Sincerely,

Olman

Are there any instructions to build tvh (and/or mono = webgrab+) for DS with Qoriq architecture?

Past couple of days I tried to compile gcc on DS413, but can't manage to get all errors solved and I gave up on that.
When I bought my DS413 I never thought qoriq was going to have so little optware support! Especially the ancient gcc and libraries are a big issue!

I see that aisman has built for qoriq before. I wonder how..

If you know how to build tvh with spksrc - you can do it with my toolchain. At once I built it for compiling tvh-3.9, there is gcc 4.6 and glibc 2.8. See instuctions at post #178 and don't forget to change the file toolchain/qoriq (you have to put it in the local server, like tvheadend, change adress and name of toolchain at toolchains/qoriq/ Makefile)

Hey aisman, do you have any experience with DSM5.0? Any improvements? How is the probability to get a more recent version of TVH via synocommunity?
Reply
Probability of a new tvh via synocommunity is growing because Synology released new toolchains (beta) for DSM 5.0 with newer gcc and gclib that can be used to build TVH.

There has also been a memory issue that was fixed in the latest version.

I cross compiled the ARM Marvell Kirkwood drivers on a Ubuntu box.

Here are my notes:

I've built them for the Marvell Kirkwood and posted them here if anyone wants them:

Recently i tried to compile latest version but seems i'm getting a invalid argument when doing this:

nano Makefile *EXTRAVERSION= -33-generic

Sorry, nano is the editor - they were my notes you weren't supposed to take it literally Blush
It should probably read more like
Code:
nano Makefile
-- Find EXTRAVERSION change it to
-- EXTRAVERSION= -33-generic

I'll update the post

Now yo say it it sounds pretty logic, sorry Wink

Eventualy i followed this guide here https://tvheadend.org/boards/4/topics/37...ssage-4330 and tried to compile a working version for DSM5 but it doesn work also.
Do you have any ideas what could be the cause that drivers aren't working in DSM5?

for QoriQ official toolchain is still outdated Sad

I'm not 100% crystal clear on getting a driver for a 1812+ (atom)

Is there ever going to be an easy way to get this hurdle passed?

would be nive if the theheadend package itself was aware of the device like videostation.

I'm cross compiling for qoriq using spksrc.
What looks outdated is the kernel Confused

These are undeclared symbols regarding DVB-t2. Even though I would never use DVB-t2 I cannot compile tvheadend because our kernel version doesn't support it...
This affects all powerpc and arm users.

For those who wonder how to get to this point:
Use a Debian x86 installation or install a Debian x86 VM.
Code:
sudo aptitude install build-essential debootstrap python-pip automake libgmp3-dev libltdl-dev libunistring-dev libffi-dev ncurses-dev imagemagick libssl-dev pkg-config zlib1g-dev gettext git curl subversion check bjam intltool gperf flex bison xmlto php5 expect libgc-dev mercurial cython lzip
sudo pip install -U pip

Code:
DSM 4.3:
git clone https://github.com/jdel/spksrc.git -b toolchains
DSM 5.0:
git clone https://github.com/SynoCommunity/spksrc.git

cd spksrc/
make setup
vi cross/tvheadend/Makefile

Change the version and put 'v' infront of the distribution name:
Code:
PKG_VERS = 3.9
PKG_DIST_NAME = v$(PKG_VERS).$(PKG_EXT)

Code:
vi cross/tvheadend/patches/001-configure.inc.patch

Paste this and save (:wq):

Update
Adam Sutton (tvheadend creator) says his code should be able to detect support for DVB-t2 or not. Something in syno's kernel tree is wrong.

Aisman, any clue how we can tackle this issue?

It's very strange, but I was able to build a new tvh-3.9.438 with official toolchain, and with mine which I've been shared here.
Btw in the new tvh we don't need to patch configure.inc.

Found my issue. I was trying to compile archived version 3.9, which was missing a crucial fix: https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend/c...32b8402ac3

After using the master branch it compiled! Great success!
