live TV for all rk3188 using XBMC and tvheadend

[sax]

Can anyone explain to me the difference between the V4L-DVB Device Drivers and liplianin / s2-liplianin-v39?

thx SaX

AF9015 DVB-T USB on AllFine Fine9 Glory Tablet

I managed to work AF9015 DVB-T USB on AllFine Fine9 Glory Tablet.
I uploaded the following modules:
insmod dvb-core.ko
insmod dvb-pll.ko
insmod mt2060.ko
insmod qt1010.ko
insmod af9013.ko
insmod mxl5007t.ko
insmod tda18218.ko
insmod mxl5005s.ko
insmod dvb_usb_v2.ko
insmod dvb-usb-af9015.ko
and
dvb-usb-af9015.fw firmware.
DroidTV starts, scans the channels and displays the channels, but when I choose a channel, the sound is working normally but the picture freezes.
Does anyone know what could be the problem?

I think is problem in MPEG 4 codec!

[taki]

At the end of works of tvheadend that most stable version (lates master source build)
no crash (dvr config and other issue)
perfectly work with dvb-s (find and map all channel HD and SD)

ONLY DELET OLD .hts folder and
change path of .hts folder init.d scrip
data/.hts

I think no need to compile new execbinary for tvheadend. that is enough

new execbinary

http://www13.zippyshare.com/v/3641763/file.html

[taki]

And new tvheandend can record tv channel webm format with xbmc
Second issue
TVHclient play mpeg2 channel hw decode with mxplayer
TVHclient play MPEG4/Avc/h264 hw decode with mxplayer ( only dropped 45 second) but playing perfectly than dvdplayer of xbmc.
All with minix X7 rk3188

Hi Taki.
I need your help. I try to compile v4l follow step by sam321 in second post of this topic. I have Ubuntu 12.04 64bit with3.13.0-32-generic and compiled RK3188 kerner with Marvin the Paranoid Android Kernel Builder (https://github.com/phjanderson/marvin). Now I have folder Kernel-3188 with compiled kernel in my home/sax/android/Kernel-3188 directory.
Then I follow steps 5,6 and 7:
5. git clone --depth=1 git://linuxtv.org/media_build.git
cd media_build
6. make download untar
7. make menuconfig ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- SRCDIR=/home/sax/android/Kernel-3188/
and then i get this output:

[QUOTE=JoKeRz;202145]Hi Taki - these are the steps I use to compile:

Compilation

1) Get kernel and compile it

1.1) download the kernel source of your preference. For 4.2.2 I use phjanderson_Kernel-3188.

1.2) Compile the kernel source. You need to have a good .config file in the root of the kernel directory. b
select all dvb driver with driver menu
make menuconfig ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi-[/CODE]
later
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi-[/CODE]

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- modues[/CODE]

2) Get the v4l package and compile it

2.1) download video4linux:

git clone --depth=1 git://linuxtv.org/media_build.git

2.2) Untar package

cd media_build
make download untar

2.3) Prepare package for cross-compilation and choose what drivers you want:

make menuconfig ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE:=/path to your toolchain/ SRCDIR=/home/sax/android/Kernel-3188

Tip: it is a good idea to keep a copy of v4l/ .config safe somewhere for future compilations

2.4) Compile v4l

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE:=/path to your toolchain/ SRCDIR=/home/sax/android/Kernel-3188

Example:

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- SRCDIR=/home/r/

The outcome module drives (*.ko) should be in the v4l subdirectory.

sax use this method. different only your kernel sorce and config

[sax]

THX Taki, but I still have problem when I try to
make menuconfig ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- SRCDIR=/home/sax/android/Kernel-3188


Here is my whole procedure (I have already compile Kernel-3188)

delete line 718-722.
later recompile everthing ok

mumudvb

taki - I saw a few threads ago that you were able to compile mumudvb for rk3188
I tried several times and was unsuccessful with the current build.
I would appreciate your help compiling it with CAM support and some info about the CC you used.
Thanks!

[taki]

first unpack ndk
for example tar -xvf android-ndk-r9c.tar.bz2
later create folder this
home/yourusername/android-ndk-r9c

later use thsi cript script (for 64 bit)
perl buildndk

#!/bin/bash

export ANDROID_NDK=android-ndk-r9c
export ANDROID_NDK_TOOLCHAIN_ROOT=android-toolchain-14a
$ANDROID_NDK/build/tools/make-standalone-toolchain.sh \
  --system=linux-x86_64 \
  --toolchain=arm-linux-androideabi-4.6 \
  --platform=android-14 \
  --install-dir=$ANDROID_NDK_TOOLCHAIN_ROOT

create

/home/yourusername/android-toolchain-14a

donwload mumudvb source unpack

/home/yourusername/mumudvb

here is mumudvb build script

#!/bin/sh
# Build script to android. Change the variables on "Path block" to the correct path.

# Path block
ANDROID_NDK=/home/new/android-toolchain-14a    # Android NDK path

export PATH="$ANDROID_NDK/bin/:$PATH"

export LIBS="-lc -lgcc -liconv"

./configure --host=arm-eabi --enable-android --enable-coverage --enable-scam-support --enable-tune_old --enable-duma --prefix=$INSTALL_DIR

make
make install

you need libicon build for mumudvb

if you look pthread_cancel erro. I dont know how to fix it for cw. but you use disable-scam-support

Hi,

Just been reading through this thread and I understand half of it. Can someone answer my question to see if it's possible.

I have minix neo x8 and the only thing missing from this beauty of a device is tuners. Is it now possible to use a usb tuner connected with the x8, run xbmc and receive live tv (and ability to watch one channel record the other?).

Are things like ccams going to work with this type of setup?. This is exactly what I want, an android based powerful box with abaility to use tuners. I am looking at a evo xfinity box if this cannot work.

Thanks

yes it is possible live tv with tvheadend on minix x8. only whick kernel used and usb dvb.
What your kernel. I can compile tvheadend for x8 android
Which you want use dvb usb tuner.
good dvb android evo xfinity box. use tvheadend and mpeg2 and avc mpeg 4 part on works like enigma2 with xbmc. but single core and mali mp400 Hisislicone. x8 powerfull than Hisislicone.

Hi taki

can upload to me driver for dvbsky s960 & last tvheadend

Hi Taki I really admire your work!

I have a similar box to the Minix Neo 8 - a S802 chip based M8 (square box) running kernel 3.10.33. The source code is available from http://openlinux.amlogic.com:8000/download/ARM/kernel/. My box is 2GB ram and K200 config.

I have 2 usb tuners IT9135 and rtl2832u.

I would really appreciate if you could compile tvheadend for my M*

Thanks
