Build OpenPli for Raspberry Pi ?

hyperonex's Photo hyperonex 12 Dec 2012

Recently I found that a
OpenEmbedded BSP Layer - RaspberryPi
have been proposed here. My question difficult is to integrate it on the Openpli 3.0 build system as a new target machine ?
Thanks

you could build an OpenPLi image for it, but without e2 (e2 needs dvb hardware).

and what about dvb usb tuners? will it work together?

pieterg's Photo pieterg 12 Dec 2012

no, e2 still needs dvb hardware to use those, and the raspberry is lacking that.

what about adding vtuner client driver to the build system (emulating the DVB presence) ?

pieterg's Photo pieterg 12 Dec 2012

the vtuner client driver relies on dvb (hardware) drivers to do the work.

Just for the info DVB-S/S2 usb device will work?

Ok but how came that we can build the Openpli enigma2 for intel plateforme that does not contain any DVB hardware as presented here.

because on a full-blown pc, there is enough cpu power to do everything in software.
On a low-power device, you need hardware support.

Pieterg, please be more precise we cannot build the e2 or we can not run e2 after the build? Because theorically if we have a box that contains the vtuner server (which requires the main part of the DVB handling processing power) and the vtuner client on the raspberry (which just demulteplexes the DVB stream caming from the vtuner server through network and which doesn't need a lot of processing power I think) the hard work will be required by decoding the program steam and that can be done by the hardware decoder of the board ! Am I wrong ?

You can build e2, but you'd probably have to comment some stuff which depends on dvb hardware (servicedvb etc), to make it build without errors.
And the result is a binary which 'works', but which doesn't playback any media, and doesn't allow you to use your vtuner client device.

Hello

 

for "keshukas" or other..   there is a "how to " for openpctv and raspberry.. (sd card) 

 

Thank you..

Now you can compile 

 

DEVELOPMENT

Get OpenPCTV source from git:
git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/openpctv/code openpctv-code

Build OpenPCTV:
cd openpctv-code
./scripts/loadcfg openpctv-xbmc-raspberry 
make menuconfig
make

Interesting topic I stumbled in to, have two spare Pis to fool around with.

Noticed from git there is even support for Pi2 already, nice.

My requirement is a client that can decode streams from my ET10000 ( with transcoding ).

Kodi's live tv is still not my fav, probably cuz I stuck to enigma2 for somewhat 10 years....

Let's see if OpenPCTV has the requirements I am looking for, interested to see how the enigma2 "dvb problem" is solved
