Install / compile TVHeadend

[itsy]

Dear all,

 

I love Armbian on my Banana Pro and so I also would like to use this OS on my brand mew Odroic C2. Every installation and configuration works except installing TVHeandend.

I tried to compile it because via armbian-config it does not work. But it does not matter which branch I use and which option I try it is not possibe to install on mainline or legacy version.

 

I do not need transcoding - the TVHeadend server just should serve my Kodi with dvbs.

 

Can anybody send me an instruction to compile TVHeadend with Armbian on Odroid C2 sucessuflly?

 

Maybe it is possible to compile completely without ffmpeg?

 

This is one of he main error message

Dear chocho,

It is but on Ubuntu only.

Sorry for my stupid question but I learn every day.

 

Here I can find 4 images - which one do I have to choose for Ubuntu?

[chocho]

You did not say which distro, Ubuntu or Debian.

For Debian I use http://www.deb-multimedia.org/

If there is no Ubuntu version like here, you need/can build one: https://github.com/armbian ...  I made you one Ubuntu Bionic build, but it is untested: https://dl.armbian.com/odroidc2/Ubuntu_bionic_next.7z

 

I will try to fix this install in armbian-config asap.
Edit: fixed

[itsy]

Thanks a lot for this great service!

I used the new image, added the ppa and now tvheadend runs :-)

 

Have a nice sunday

The new system is different in some points and many of my issues I could solve with google.

But I did not found a working solution for setting up different nameserver (without using standard gateway as dns -Y dns leaking).

Before I just edit resolv.conf (and also installed dnsmasq what is not possible anymore). Now resolv.conf will be overwritten by NetworkManager and even setup nameserver in head was not successful.

 

Maybe you have a hint?

 

Thanks

Here we are getting off topic. Ubuntu Bionic is different enough to cause you troubles. In case you don't want to deal with the diff ... Debian TVhead installation has also been solved. I will push the update when finishing some other fixes.

Thanks - you are right! For me the best solution to wait for your update :-)

[Igor]

An update is out on a stable branch. 

[itsy]

And it works - great! Thank you so much!
