Howto build Tvheadend 4.2.x /4.3 with yocto / openembedded / bitbake / OpenPLi 6.2 for mips32el Mut@nt hd530c VuSOLO

Added by Walter av about 6 years ago

UPDATE 2018-12-14: Issue 5432 has been created!
https://tvheadend.org/issues/5432

Introduction:

With some quick and dirty patching/hacking and skipping warnings/errors both Tvheadend git release/4.2 and master(4.3x) "build" and do "run" on OpenPLi 6.2 on mips32el Mut@nt hd530c and VuSOLO including hdhomerun and satip client support. However expect errors/limitations that these setop boxes might give due to tight closed dvb drivers using older/out of tree kernel/modules and very limited cpu/ram specs!!! This build procedure will take ~6GB and 2,5 hours on a dated 3GHz i7(Quadcore+ssd) for the combined building part, without taking the Internet Provider download speed and reader skills into account!

If I'm not mistaking a couple of years ago I think I tried a classic Tvheadend version on a dated OpenPLi/OpenATV with VuSolo, but lost interest since its was not detecting any tuners was buggy and unusefull.

Due to having success/joy in using and building Tvheadend for PC x86 and Raspberry Pi Arm hardware (deb based), I noticed that there was some standardization in these (OpenPLi) setop boxes too that earned having another look.
They use yocto(Linux Foundation)/openembedded(OE alliance)/bitbake system with each setop box distribution (OpenPLi/OPENATV) having their own meta/recipes/layers on top of this. Which is a very complete and complex system for generating hardware specific firmware/rootfs images.
By only fiddling with some text file patches and understanding in which meta/recipe folder they need to occur I got Tvheadend to build with minimal OpenPLi build instructions. First it was Tvheadend v.3.3 that compiled than v4.0.9 to see if the bitbake files were at all any exchangable (pyro>morty) which they indeed were. Following with current git release/4.2 v4.2.7.x and master v4.3x which mostly need different line numbers for diff/.patch files to apply I decided to write this howto. Afterwards I wasn't able to directly compile v3.3 and v4.0.9... but newer versions did.

We see that native yocto building of Tvheadend v3.3 has been done in the past yocto(morty) release when looking at "tvheadend_git.bb" bitbake file:
https://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/recipe/55018/

Currently v4.0.9 of tvheadend is blacklisted in the yocto(pyro) release with a dvb-apps dependency problem(luckily didn't notice dvb-apps error building OpenPLi 6.2 when unblacklisting tvheadend build):
https://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/recipe/63277/

Since it was blacklisted because of dvb-apps depenency (eventhough its not needed anymore for v4.3.x tvheadend):
https://tvheadend.org/projects/tvheadend/repository/revisions/fab0a6c59ceb322c44722f7576e743de176f81a9
Its not only outdated with v4.0.9 but apparently removed/missing in current and future upstream yocto(rocko/sumo) openembedded bitbake recipes as we see:
https://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/branch/rocko/layer/meta-multimedia/
https://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/branch/sumo/layer/meta-multimedia/
Good news its back in yocto(master) thanks Peter Bašista for noticing.

Status

The Mut@nt hd530c currently runs tvheadend 79ea2a42c477e315ffa2143252273fe2db0c2165 with 3 frontends detected on a single adapter but using its dvb-c adapters directly within tvheadend causes tvheadend to crash as soon as a 2nd channel on a different transponder is tuned on a 2nd/3rd tuner. This happens with enigma enabled in background and with runlevel init 4. There has been some tvheadend optimizations lately(see issues) to improve multiple frontend behaviour on dual tuners but for this FBC dvb-c tuner it did not improve yet.

Prepare Building:

To get tvheadend support in your build of OpenPLi, I use Ubuntu 16.04 amd64 (you must use 16.04 otherwise some build dependencies/resolving will fail) and first build a default OpenPLi 6.2 image to see if that will actual succeed and all the ingredients are done, afterwards tvheadend support will be patched in and only parts of the build process are redone quickly thanks to the advanced yocto oe buildsysten. Open a terminal and:

#make sure "en_US_utf8" is installed and default

Subject: [PATCH] Fix checks for sse2/mmx

Just checking for cmdline options is not enough
its better to check for builtin defines to be
sure, clang does not error out on sse2 options on
arm e.g. and it ends up doing SSE2 stuff for arm
which is not desired

Although no further install errors show up, it seems that /usr/bin/tvheadend(-dbg) is missing tvheadend was installed in "/usr/bin/.debug/tvheadend" but it stalls on the following error so no debugging yet sorry.

Sorry for abit oftopic, any chance you could share your tvheadend.ipk and newer minisatip.ipk files?

Also would you think that CI-module could work in tvheadend?

Best regadrs!

Not really useful sharing the *.ipk files since they don't work reliable, they also come with dependencies... and the reason I did write a step by step tutorial is the ability to make them yourself. Any chance of showing which steps are not clear?

Also are we talking about the same hardware (offtopic?) as far as I know the hd530c does not come with a CI?

Tvheadend supports some CI's / tuner combinations fine for more than 2 years now.

Your titorial is fine and detailed, easy to follow, however most people do not want to load an older specific Linux distro (is ubuntu 16.04.05 fine btw, since thats the one for dl on the ubuntu site) and then go through hours of hours, I might do, but the general public will not (and minisatip can be compiled static, would be good if tvheadend also had that option).

Yes ofcourse I know about the CI's working in general, but since the title also says Vu Solo also I kind of thought that you had tried it on that set top box too (one of many boxes I do own).

Best regards and thank your for your time and effort!

RE: Howto build Tvheadend 4.2.x /4.3 with yocto / openembedded / bitbake / OpenPLi 6.2 for mips32el Mut@nt hd530c VuSOLO - Added by Walter av almost 6 years ago

You're absolutely right about the VUsolo having a CI, sorry for guessing you had a hd530c. I don't own a VUsolo but I'm not sure any more when testing if the interanl CI was listed as linuxdvb api v5 compatible CI to its DVB-S2 tuner in the TVheadend webinterface. Check the kernel version of the Vusolo and see if that may already answer the questions if dvb api5 dvbcsa is already supported since linux 3.x or compile own version?

The problem with the Vusolo is its very limited nand size, therefor during testing of this tvheadend package I only saw that it runs one of the early 4.x Tvheadend that got build and after detecting tuner did some FTA setup and than noticed that the root / was full will installing the lastest 4.3 version of package (which is a lot bigger) and than the device crashed out of disk space. Since then did not try again.

MAybe in future.

RE: Howto build Tvheadend 4.2.x /4.3 with yocto / openembedded / bitbake / OpenPLi 6.2 for mips32el Mut@nt hd530c VuSOLO - Added by Marco D almost 6 years ago

Thanks for your tutorial.

I'm using a VU+ Uno 4K SE receiver (Enigma2) with DVB-C FBC Tuner. It's an ARM-based receiver with 1,7 GHz Dual-Core CPU, 2GB RAM and even an HD video hardware transcoder built-in.
Specs: http://www.vuplus.com/sub/sub0117.php

Is it possible to install Tvheadend on this receiver with your provided instructions? Can the build process be done on the machine itself (using the mounted hard drive for the large file requirements)?

I'm using a VU+ Uno 4K SE receiver (Enigma2) with DVB-C FBC Tuner.

I am also using the same device, but with a DVB-S FBC tuner.

Is it possible to install Tvheadend on this receiver with your provided instructions?

Most probably yes. I have done it slightly differently by at first building the entire current OpenATV image to ensure compatibility and then building Tvheadend by using bitbake and the existing tvheadend recipe. It took hours and I remember that there were issues (packages failing to build) that needed to be resolved manually.

I have done the same thing a while back on Octagon SF4008 and there the Tvheadend works very well. With regards to VU Plus Uno 4K SE, at least in my case Tvheadend does not seem to work with the device's tuner correctly (https://tvheadend.org/boards/5/topics/41039).

Can the build process be done on the machine itself (using the mounted hard drive for the large file requirements)?

Yes, but it would take an unnecessarily long time. Also, in order to install all build dependencies, it would be perhaps simpler to create and use a chroot environment with some standard Linux distribution where the necessary tools are more readily available. In such case, I think that it makes more sense to use a regular, possibly more powerful computer.
