Tvheadend

No the current official stable is 4.0.7.

If you are looking for arm compiled Ubuntu or Debian pkgs, then i'm sorry to say but there still aren't any decent / reliable source for that.

So to avoid compiling yourself, it would be beest if you to install arch linux on your odroid. Then use arch linux official tvheadend pkg from here:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/tvheadend/

However others on the forum may also have compiled ARM .debs, like for the rPI / similar. You might as well try those too if you already have ubuntu installed on it right now (before trying to switch to arch).

Thanks Dreamcat. Forgive my noobishness, but are you sure arch-linux will run on the ODriod? I'm not much of a kernel guy so this stuff is mostly new to me.

Hi again.
It turns out Adam has managed to get the previous (old) APT repo working again. This is a new development.

And it includes packages for armhf too:

It's linked here, 2nd section below the bintray ones:

Repository for 3.4

http://tvheadend.org/projects/tvheadend/wiki/AptRepository

http://apt.tvheadend.org/stable/pool/main/t/tvheadend/

So you might as well try those ones. See if they work. BTW you never specified which odroid you have (there are different ones).

Hey 'cat, sorry for the tardy reply. Thanks to help from another user with the same setup I just got the kWorld USB stick running on the ODroid - and that's a C1+, you're right that I failed to mention that.

I did manage to pull one build on arm from apt-get but since then it appears they are all gone. I looked in release and stable but it seems everything is intel or amd. C'est la vie.

I'm building now - I had no idea it was so big! My last build failed but that was 4.0.8 so I've git cloned release and, well, fingers crossed.

Ah sorry my mistake. Guess I didn't check closely enough what he's got going on there now. It seems there are a few armhf ones, but all Debian. Wheras Odroid most often are running Ubuntu. We don't seem to be quite there yet but maybe it's something can happen in the future. We've always been hoping to get armhf .debs going if we can figure it out. Cross-compiling from scratch isn't easy but Adam has some pbuilder thing going now.

I was able to build and install, but I was surprised how long it took, at least two (three?) hours end-to-end. CC when into tight loops a couple of times and I had to power cycle to get it going again. But all's well that end's well, and at 10:30 last night I was watching TV on my iPhone.

Yeah. Compiling on those hardware (rPi / ARM7 / similar) is always really slow. Same for MIPS.
