I've posted mythtv-fixes which builds and runs against current x264. It also fetches from the fixes/29 git branch, which contains many fixes since the 29.1 release.
I needed a working package for a few systems, and pushing to AUR was the easiest thing. @Taijian if you'd like to copy some/all of those changes into this package that'd be great. Then I can remove mine again :)
The patches provided by bigcajun826 worked for me... .. . ...thanks bigcajun826
Sorry about the delay. I am currently on vacation and away from my computer. I'll update when I get back, after the 27th.
I think I have a patch that works here: https://gist.github.com/emerkle826/5a4302abfb09b9b3a4fed598bf3a1538
It's the libx264.c patch and the changes to PKGBUILD.
thx bigcajun826 for ffmpeg tip
After the x264 upgrade, I tried to recompile and got issues with:
src/mythtv-29.1/mythtv/external/FFmpeg/libavcodec/libx264.c
I don't have the specific error handy, but it was similar to this report:
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/6932
That report has a link to a patch for libx264.c that shows that x264_bit_depth was replaced by X264_BIT_DEPTH, along with some other stuff in there.
I'm not sure what all is needed, but after doing a replace of x264_bit_depth with X264_BIT_DEPTH in the file above, I was able to rebuild the package. Since I'm not great with patch files, I don't have one to provide, and thus I had to build it with makepkg --e after manually editing the source file.
Hope that helps some....
The arch update to extra/x264 breaks compatibility with mythtv. I get now:
mythbackend: error while loading shared libraries: libx264.so.152: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Thank you for the heads-up! I have updated the PKGBUILD accordingly and ended up just moving in to depends(), because it was already a make-depend, so it seemed silly to not do that, even though it is not technically true. But I'm just going to hope that no one will complain too loudly to the AUR police :)
Hello. Another PKGBUILD tweak for you, after a cleanup of my server.
Metadata lookup will not work unless mysql-python is installed at runtime.
Recommend this package be added to optdepends=() list.
Thanks again for keeping this thing together for everyone.
Apparently, there has been another silent update to mythtv-29.1, breaking the checksum check - update will be up momentarily. Thanks to @cspack77 for reporting the issue!

This package replaces the previous 'mythtv' AUR package. It has been renamed to comply with Arch's VCS package guidelines.
I hope to update the various mythplugins AUR packages soon
