same error with taglib or different?

#390

New error logKodi-compile-1.zip (29.1 KB)

#391

ah thats because java version is too new, let me find a way to automatically handle this on package, if not you might need to manually intervene and install an old version of java runtime environment

#392

what is the output of archlinux-java status ?

#393

Available Java environments:
java-10-openjdk
java-17-openjdk
java-21-openjdk (default)

#394

sudo archlinux-java set java-10-openjdk

should work, then install again, it will continue from where it failed

#395

yeah it take some time because it build every binary addon,
but the next update will be 15mins max. only the first build takes time.

by the way, i found some bugs in agr tool. so you need to update the tool with

python -m pip install https://github.com/hbiyik/agr/archive/master.zip --break-system-packages --force-reinstall

when updated, the tool can self update itself with below command, so you dont need to issue above command anymore once updated.

agr update --agr

#397

Just a question,
will there an update for a newer version of repo 7ji
chromium-mpp-git be.

we are discussing here:

both him and myself are a little bit tired by maintaining those, from my pov, maintaining the binary distribution is also another pain, but we will see.

UPDATE:

  • kodi-nexus-mpp-git and and kodi-binary-addons-git packages are now completely separated.

Now first time building of kodi takes 45mins, update build takes about 5 minutes
first time building of kodi-binary-addons-git takes 2.5 hours, update build takes around 10 mins.
@Uli_Beling i think you are the only one, if you have previous built kodi, you need uninstall pacman -R kodi-nexus-mpp-git and reinstall with kodi-nexus-mpp-git to get updates, because the package names are changed a bit.

  • removed moonlight-qt-git package since the fix for ffmpeg-rockchipis merged to upstream moonlight. You can use AUR to install moonlight-qt-git package instead of agr

to update agr:

agr update --agr

to update the system

agr update

#400

It also won’t let me build kodi from AGR even after clearing all my previous builds. I will try the Java fix you mentioned earlier.

::Java fix worked and kodi installed successfully

Is there a fix for Firefox? Its the only browser I noticed that freezes/crashes. Librewolf is the alternative I use for now

#404

With the new ffmpeg-rockchip support for firefox is dropped.
Also firefox is getting really slow lately so i kinda lost my appetite to make it work.

But

There is below hack i managed to work out only for h264, but this is ugly and not covering all formats, and ff is slow.

I might work on it i also have some other ideas but, currently you can just use chromium-mpp

#405

There seems to be some issue with hardware decoding not working with ffmpeg-rockchip when playing videos from youtube using mpv+yt-dlp. Local files do work and mpv+yt-dlp hardware decoding works with ffmpeg-mpp.

#406

Did you check the wiki? You need to do flag mpv to use rkmpp qith new ffmpeg-rockchip. It should be few posts above.

#407

Maybe consider adding a section on how to modify mpv.conf. Many users have become accustomed to the fact that rkmpp has higher priority than software decoder, but they don’t know that this is actually a hack.

#408

i was just expecting someone from the community to come up with mpv.conf :slight_smile:
