Tvheadend

You need to compile it yourself - there is no 'enable transcoding' option as in 3.4, but the pre-built debs aren't being built with transcoding for whatever reason.

AUTOBUILD_CONFIGURE_EXTRA=--enable-libffmpeg_static ./Autobuild.sh

... should get you there once you've cloned the source.

thx, but im a noob to compile tvheadend

have you a complete guide to compile tvh 3.9 with
transcoding?

so, i build now my own tvheadend. but the transcoding button isnt there ;(

i had do:

1. apt-get remove tvheadend
2. apt-get install build-essential pkg-config libssl-dev git
3. apt-get install libavahi-client-dev libavcodec-dev libavfilter-dev libavformat-dev libavutil-dev libswscale-dev libavcodec-extra-53 liburiparser1 liburiparser-dev debhelper libcurl4-gnutls-dev a52dec
4. apt-get install libssl-dev
5. cd /usr/src
6. git clone https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend.git
7. cd tvheadend
8. AUTOBUILD_CONFIGURE_EXTRA=--enable-libffmpeg_static ./Autobuild.sh
9. cd ..
10. dpkg -i tvheadend_3.9.2497~g54533b3_amd64.deb

3.9 works with transcoding profiles in webui --> config -->stream -->streamprofiles which you assign to user afterwards

Hello Alf,
unfortunally I could not add the profile in "stream profiles" as your picture config-profile.jpg is showing.
The boxes below "Container" are missing. Is this missing due to not compiling the transcoding feature?

I am now running an unstable installation on Ubuntu (Tvheadend 3.9.2514) and I only have 3 streaming profiles available, HTSP, Matroska and Pass. Do I need to manually build Tvheadend via the steps outlined by Ralf to be able to transcode?

If I build it myself, do I need to step 5 through 10 every time I want to update?

nope. in ...src/tvheadend/ git clean -dxf and then git pull. dunno about autobuild, never used that. i use configure...,make,make install
