Hello,

I tried the beta and unstable apt repository on my ubuntu system but i don't see the updates available as listed on the build menu on this site. How to install these?

Hi Frans,

You should built it by yourself, not apt-get via ubuntu repository.

(since you have to checkout if ubuntu beta or unstable are up-to-date with TVH's git hub)

Let's have a look on https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend

If you want to build by yourself (it quite easy) :

git clone https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend.git
cd tvheadend/
./configure --enable-bundle
make

Your binary will be stored in ./build.linux/

And "after", when you want to "pull" updates :
cd tvheadend/
git checkout
git pull

and "let's build again (...) yeaah... come on and build again .. " :D

Hope this helps

Hello BaumK,

Thanks for sharing but what's the purpose of the "Builds" menu on this site when you are not able to use it on your system?

Regards,

Frans

I'm sorry i have no response; should ask to developpers.

Then it's also an easy way to know the last available release.
Users that doesn't know how github works should be lonely by the website.
When you're going here, just check out and you know the last release is 3.5.245-g6c9bff11 (at this time) without any GIT command line.

You probably look for a "download" page, but TVH can be build on several hardware.
That means devs should have to build for each platform, they probably a lot of other things to do. :)

That the way i see the build page.
