This article describes how to build Tvheadend from source
Make sure you have avahi and subversion installed, these are required to build Tvheadend
{{{- emerge -av avahi subversion
}}}
now create the following directories
{{{
mkdir -p /opt/tvheadend/src
}}}
now you need to check out the Tvheadend source code using svn
{{{
svn co svn://svn.lonelycoder.com/hts/trunk/tvheadend /opt/tvheadend/src/
}}}
now you need to prepare the Tvheadend source code
{{{
cd /opt/tvheadend/src
./configure --prefix=/opt/tvheadend
}}}
if all went well you can compile the Tvheadend source code
{{{
make
}}}
If the source is compiled with no errors you can install the compiled source
{{{
make install
}}}
if you want you can also create this init script to start Tvheadend at boot time
/etc/init.d/tvheadend {{{#!/sbin/runscript

TVH_PIDFILE="/var/run/tvheadend.pid"
TVH_BIN="/opt/tvheadend/bin/tvheadend"
TVH_OPTS="-f -C"
depend() {
need net
}
start() {
ebegin "Starting Tvheadend"
start-stop-daemon --start --pidfile ${TVH_PIDFILE} \
--exec ${TVH_BIN} -- ${TVH_OPTS}
eend $?
}
stop() {
ebegin "Stopping Tvheadend"
start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --pidfile ${TVH_PIDFILE} --signal 2
eend $?
rm -f ${PIDFILE}
}
}}}
now set /etc/init.d/tvheadend as executable
{{{
chmod +x /etc/init.d/tvheadend
}}}
now you can try to start Tvheadend
{{{
/etc/init.d/tvheadend start
}}}
if this works fine you can also add it to runlevel default so Tvheadend starts automatically
{{{
rc-update add tvheadend default
}}}
now you can go to [http://hostname:9981/ http://hostname:9981/] and start using/configuring Tvheadend
