Tvheadend

This might be totally unrelated, but while building from master I came across a build-error for the hdhomerun client. I don't use it, so I disabled the client and moved on, but maybe the build you are getting doesn't contain the client?
I remember vaguely that the build error seemed to be quite trivial, something cosmetical in a file address or so...

Hi,

Good to see hdhomerun integrated !

What options should I compile it with, i.e. "enable-hdhomerun_client" (i guess), but what is "Enable hdhomerun_static" ?

Thanks,

Alex

PS: is there any more info/documentation, since I get the following error when enabling hdhomerun-client (i can open a new thread if neccesarry but i am not sure where to look first for documentation on this) :

In file included from src/input/mpegts/tvhdhomerun/tvhdhomerun.c:25:0:
src/input/mpegts/tvhdhomerun/tvhdhomerun_private.h:27:36: fatal error: libhdhomerun/hdhomerun.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

Thanks for the hint Rainer, I did a local build and now it's working

@Alex: You don't need any options, just make sure that the following file is existing:
/usr/include/libhdhomerun/hdhomerun.h
You might have to copy this from /usr/lib.
Run ./configure and verify that hdhomerun.h is detected.
Finally run ./Automake.sh and install the deb package with dpkg.

ok, thanks.

Indeed, I needed to copy hdhomerun.h and the other files in that directory.
( I run Gentoo, so might be a little different from Ubuntu/Debian.)

Now compile and 'make' both work, and I see the 'internal' hdhomerun tuner :-)
(didnt test it yet)

Alex.

Hi there, is it liekly that hte unstable apt repo for debian will be provisioned with the hdhomerun code enabled? Like the original poster i'm running the unstable tvheaded 3.9.1879, but the hdhomerun component appears to not be included. I'd rather not compile from source on a rasperry pi, so is there a repo that does include this code? Cheers NAthan

I was wondering why this is not done in the autobuilds? I see that the builds try to do this and have been failing because of the missing hdhomerun dev files. If this is compiled static it would not cause the extra dependencies, and would not effect many users. This would be nice since using hdhomerun today is not as easy as it should be in Ubuntu.

when you are talking about a local build, you're talking about tvheadend, right ? the auto builds of hdhomerun are ok ?

After a good half day I finally figured it out. I took the hints posted on this thread and got everything to work. Location placement is the biggest issue. I will try and post a forum later tonight. Thanks so much for the hints.
