Title: sweet RPi port!
Post by: Harry on February 24, 2013, 22:35:45
thanks for the nice work!

the RPi port looks great - couldnt try out MPEG2 yet as i'm still waiting
for the MPEG2 code... but woooow.

thinking about it...
wouldn't the RPi versions' name be VORP or VORPi?
;)
just kidding.

cheers!

Hi,

I just can't wait to install vomp on my rpi.
Is there an installation guide to get a running system?
I just tried the last MLD image, but after booting I only get a black screen  :(

Greetings,

Tobi

Anyway, if you like to run vomp as daemon on raspbain (but make sure that you have ssh access before you do the next steps),
you can go to the debian directory in the source tree, run create_source_tar .
Then you go down with cd ..  and run dpkg-buildpackage.
Afterwards you can go down with cd .. and  run as root dpkg -i packagename.
Then vomp is cleanly installed as a package and run as a daemon controllable with a script in /etc/init.d/vompclient-raspi, but while it is running, you will not have access to a local konsole on the raspberry. Therefore you need ssh access.

Hi Tobi,

I'm just looking for the problem with the vompclient on the MLD. I hope to find the reason there for the next days. Until then, you can try the oldest available MLD image (of November 2012), because that still working. You can get it on the download page, if you are hover the download link, and than hover the versions number with your mouse.

hmm.
the RasPi vompclient there is a binary distribution.
might be a good idea to also offer the VOMP_HAS_EXIT version.

Hi,

the installation of the vomp client on my raspberry worked fine using the guide

I finally have the blue screen "Locating server..."

I think now I have to install vompserver 0.4.0 on my yaVDR 0.4. Are there any compiled packeges around, which I can use? Or does someone have some hints how to compile it from source?

Thanks a lot for the good work and support so far.

Greetings

Tobi

Tobi,

I don't know about binary versions, and I also don't know how you would do this with yaVDR. On a standard clean VDR you would extract the server plugin to vdr/PLUGINS/src/vompserver (make sure it's just "vompserver") then cd to vdr. then "make plugins". Good luck..

It is working! Great!  :D
I compiled the vompserver from git:

git clone http://git.vomp.tv/vompserver.git
cd vompserver
git checkout 0-4-0
make


and compied the .so:
cp ./vompserver/libvdr-vompserver.so /usr/lib/vdr/plugins/libvdr-vompserver.so.1.7.27

LiveTV is working fine, remote via cec, recordings are working, even ffw and rew.

Great work! Thanks a lot!

Any chance to get the daemon-package pre-built? I do not have a build environment which I assume would be needed for the above to work.

The idea is that the vompclient would run as a daemon and start directly from the boot. If there are other (better?) ways to achieve this than the daemon, feel free to suggest :)

Thanks in advance.
