Warning: if you have previously used this package, you need to reinstall! Sorry for introducing breaking changes, but hopefully the introduced changes will provide a better experience for most users. :)

Backup your configs (if needed) before performing the upgrade!

Changes:

  • TVHeadend will be installed to /var/lib/tvheadend instead of /usr/share/tvheadend
  • Package will create the system user tvheadend (member of group video) with config files stored in /etc/tvheadend, it will not use a home directory anymore.
  • By using sysusers.d and tmpfiles.d permissions should be easier to manage.
  • tvheadend.service now includes -C by default.
  • Added some missing deps

If you have any questions or suggestions, please let me know. :)

I started up a wiki page for Tvheadend. Input and help is welcome.

skaface82: Thanks for the suggestion. libhdhomerun is now optional and the hdhomerun built-in client is now optionally enabled.

Just suggesting that libhdhomerun(aur) should be an optional dependency. I'm not sure how popular these devices are with tvheadend users and if its worth making everyone install the libhdhomerun aur package by default, but I just removed the dependency from my PKGBUILD to successfully build the package.

Libav (transcoding) has been disabled until FFmpeg 7 is supported.

fwiw; i tried to build today after updating system brought in new ffmpeg; and i got a build failure, i was on the older ffmepg4.4 build. for the meantime i took out the configure line --disable static ffmmpeg, and it built. and installed. hope to go back and get it w/o a static build once fixed. but happy to have it work.

Looks like it fails to compile with the recent upgrade to ffmpeg 7. Going back to 6 worked for me, including also downgrading x265 and some other packages that depended on it.

Tvheadend finally supports ffmpeg 6 since the following PR was merged yesterday: https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend/pull/1573

Should therefore be possible to link back to the main ffmpeg package as a dependency rather than ffmpeg4.4.

This seems to work for me:

@void09: Fixed. Thanks for reminding.

void09 commented on 2023-09-03 14:11 (UTC)

Just a reminder for my comment below: " I'd like to suggest adding '!lto' to the options list in the PKGBUILD. tvheadend still does not currently compile with lto enabled: https://tvheadend.org/issues/6026 And some users might have it enabled by default in makepkg.conf Thanks. "
