@laichiaheng - kodi is bound to a specific version of ffmpeg which is generally older than Arch's package. We avoid incompatibilities by using that specific version (ie internal ffmpeg). Recommend that you build kodi in clean chroot. See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot

I wrote a script that automates much of that called clean-chroot-manager offered here in the AUR.

I've been like 2 weeks without updating because of the delay of the release of catalyst, until I added the xorg110 repo. When I updated however, I got some problems with xbmc-git. Video gets a bit sluggish, no matter if I'm playing mp4, or avi (don't know about mkv, didn't test it). With the xbmc in community however, that doesn't happen. Any ideas? best regards

@dejavu : archs ffmpeg supports vdpau for a very long time now, i dont know about xvba-video, but my guess is it works fine if it works :p @foolosopy : xbmc-git builds fine against archs ffmpeg thats also one of the reasons i personally switched to fully external libs with xbmc-git

dejavu commented on 2011-11-02 22:59 (UTC)

Isn't the reason for using the internal ffmpeg that you can use vdpau?

I've also been using xbmc-git with external ffmpeg for several months now, but I always had to compile my own version of ffmpeg, because XBMC wouldn't compile against Arch's ffmpeg. I haven't updated since Oct 1st, but up until then, external ffmpeg did not work with Arch's ffmpeg. Does it now? (I don't want to break my HTPC to check.)

@donvla : my understanding was that xbmc, from now on would rely on all external libs, also ffmpeg ( i could be wrong, have no idea anymore where i read that ) - that would remove the optional dependency to rtmpdump since its a dependency of ffmpeg :p - i have an xbmc-git running for a pretty long time now build with external ffmpeg and had no issues since about a month or two https://github.com/BlackIkeEagle/herecura/tree/master/testing/xbmc-git

Additionally to my previous comment I would suggest also to add 'rtmpdump' as optionally dependency. It's used for streaming. The rest looks very good and should provide a complete media center. ;-) Thanks!

anyone know if there is a better launcher plugin than the standard one? I'd like something with more of a netbook feel, but not sure where to find it if it exists... google hasn't really turned up anything, so I figured I'd ask here (likely inappropriate location, but I'm exhausting all options)...

need "consolekit" for suspend functionality. see: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Ubuntu_Suspend_/_Wake#Enabling_Suspend_.2F_Wake_on_Ubuntu_Linux
