@laichiaheng - kodi is bound to a specific version of ffmpeg which is generally older than Arch's package. We avoid incompatibilities by using that specific version (ie internal ffmpeg). Recommend that you build kodi in clean chroot. See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot

I wrote a script that automates much of that called clean-chroot-manager offered here in the AUR.

Not sure how I feel about making the proposed changes to the PKGBUILD. My thinking is that users would be confused by the bash noops in the variables.

@graysky, @xiota is a dev from Chaotic-AUR trying to figure out kodi-git to use gl then make the binary, in the comment below this.

@graysky, please change lines 21 and 24 to:

: ${_clangbuild:=}
: ${_renderer:=gles}

This makes them easier to change without editing the PKGBUILD: _renderer=gl makepkg

Explanation. : is a bash noop, but the line is still parsed, so the variable is still assigned if empty or unset.

graysky, I asked Chaotic-AUR to change their kodi-git PKGBUILD to gl, if they do, you should change nothing

csts commented on 2024-03-05 02:18 (UTC)

graysky the problem is I can't do that, since I get kodi-git binary from Chaotic-AUR, and I'm guessing it sees only gles. I'm used to have HEVC working for too many years, and can't see why changing it now. Mayby you can make gl the default then let peeps choose gles on demand.

@csts - I commented on your issue but mirroring here for coverage:

Please see line 24 in the PKGBUILD wherein you need to define the _renderer variable to a value of either gles or gl.

@graysky, a Kodi dev mentioned you switched build to GLES, and that's why I get a black screen with HEVC:

@kevku - fixed in latest commit and yes, this PKGBUILD mirrors the official one which build both gl and gles separately. I guess I can modify it to have a variable define which one to build...

kevku commented on 2023-12-23 08:18 (UTC)

you removed provides=kodi-dev from the kodi-git-dev package. this pkgbuild also now builds everything twice which is pointless waste of time for 99% of people.
