Leaving in the grep for the amd check should be ok on an Intel box. The script works fine on my P4 3.0ghz box.

Uuuuummm.....

I can confirm that the script is working fine with R5F27. Been using for a week.

I have attempted to use this script as well as use the instructions in the wiki to install mythtv from svn and it appears to not compile mythtv with ivtv support and I really don't know why? when I run configure with --enable-ivtv it still comes up as disabled. Does anyone know what I need to have installed to enable ivtv support?

Script updated for ffmpeg patches to svn. It removed the libdts for configure. There was another parameter for configure that I'm looking into. It the multi-thread for x264 decoding.

Hi there,

I also used this script, and encountered a problem i couldnt resolve. I subsequently, grabbed the R5F27 CD, and re-upgraded and all is well.

My problem getting this to work was that the DVB includes (or something like that) link was not in the kernel headers (excuse my poor/incorrect description, but i think you get the picture). I followed these instructions
http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=16434
and managed to get myth to compile using the above script. However, even though it SAID it was happy with DVB support compiled in, when the backend came back up, it will showed log errors saying that DVB was not enabled.

I gave up at this point, and went back to the R5F27 CD.

If i get the urge again to delve into svn mythtv,has anyone got any hints as to where i went wrong?

Cheers,

Nathan

dwaine,

Could you post your configuration? I can't seem to get the plugins to compile:



I have tried it as root and mythtv and it is driving me nuts!

Victor

Any update to this? This no longer seems to work as it did before.

The athlon compile option is rejected.

Several plugins fail to build.

I just did a sync with svn with the script. Been using it all week.
This is what I'm using.

except for a couple of config opts, I have the same script. It seems to work if I do a make clean first. I would guess it depends on how long its been since you've compiled last.

Hi, I have same problem with Mythweb. Can you post more details about repairing it?
What means "wiped"? (my english is not good...... )
What config file ?

Thanks, siD

Wipe ==> rub, polish, clean, wash, brush, ... The implication is something along the lines of cleaning with a rag, paper (tissue or towel) or sponge without being as rough as scrubbing or scouring.

As in "I wiped the crumbs off the table" or "I wiped my nose" or "he wiped the chalkboard".

Dutch - veeg af
German - Abwischen
French - essuyé
Spanish - limpiado

Here it just means deleted or removed.

Yeah... Notice that the mythweb does not delete the older version in /var/www/mythweb directory and copy the new svn version of mythweb. I just do it manually when there are updates to mythweb.

I also noticed their is a problem with Nividia XVMC and the open-gl settings for configure. If you get a blank screen when watch recordings and or livetv, then remove the open-gl from the configure settings in the script.

Does anyone know how to setup the make compile properly for Quad Core cpus? I have the Intel Quad Core 2.40ghz and the -march when compiling is stuck at "K8"..

Hopefully with the next release of Knoppmyth it will have gcc v4.3.

Dwaine

Just a quick note that while it is fun and sometimes beneficial to upgrade mythtv via svn, the svn trunk is not always stable. Every few months I'll grab the latest svn, and a few times I've had problems with the svn being unstable or not compiling.
It's easy to solve. Just wait a few hours and then download and try again. Make sure the new download is a different svn version. That has always worked for me.
