The patch shared by arcreactor does finally let it compile, thanks! The patch at pastebin needs one more line at the end to avoid git patch failing with 2 rather than 3 lines of context. I then used "git apply --ignore-whitespace ../kodi-addon-inputstream-ffmpegdirect.diff.txt"

ffmpeg6.1 is required by this package unless this patch is applied. I couldn't build ffmpeg6.1 on my (up-to-date) system. I applied the above patch, and it built with the standard ffmpeg on my system, version 8. ffmpeg4.4 is also installed from extra.

Great news that it now compiles, but it still doesn't work (but see below). Got this error that I haven't seen before, when using an addon that depends on inputstream-ffmpegdirect: VideoPlayer InputStream: Inputstream FFmp... Add-on couldn't be loaded. An unknown error has occurred.

I could look into it further.

Using a precompiled addon, version 21.3.5, works, from "https://github.com/arnesongit/inputstream.ffmpegdirect-binaries". It's the last link on the page. But I hope we can compile from source.

Hello wast3,

due to the recent update in arch to ffmpeg8, the package no longer compiles. I managed to compile it applying this patch:

Thank you for your work!

Hey @Lucki,

for some inscrutable reason, it builds fine if you add the mainline ffmpeg to the chroot (that's ffmpeg version 7, which the package will not use).

I will add it to the pkgbuild, thank you.

I get the following error building this in a clean chroot:

    L'operazione sta per essere interrotta...

any suggestions? Many thanks!

Thank you @wast3, this worked for me and solved the problems I had with IPTV Simple Client.

Fails to build against ffmpeg 7. Needs a dependency to ffmpeg6.1 and the following added to the PKGBUILD:

-DFFMPEG_INCLUDE_DIRS=/usr/include/ffmpeg6.1 -DFFMPEG_LIBRARIES=/usr/lib/ffmpeg6.1

Building break with errors:

If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest version from Git. If the latest version fails, report the problem to the ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org mailing list or IRC #ffmpeg on irc.libera.chat. Include the log file "ffbuild/config.log" produced by configure as this will help solve the problem. make[5]: *** [CMakeFiles/ffmpeg.dir/build.make:92: ffmpeg-prefix/src/ffmpeg-stamp/ffmpeg-configure] Error 1 make[4]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:87: CMakeFiles/ffmpeg.dir/all] Error 2

I think kodi-dev it's always required, so just put kodi-dev, for all architectures. If kodi-rpi-dev provides kodi-dev, rpi users should select the rpi one, when prompted. at least i guess so :)

ivanich commented on 2024-04-16 17:57 (UTC)

@thepasto would this work?

if [[ $CARCH == 'armv6h' || $CARCH == 'armv7h'  || $CARCH == 'aarch64' ]]; then
    makedepends+=('kodi-rpi-dev')
fi
