Here is a discussion on the ffmpeg build problem in the popcornmix repo.

I got around it by disabling openssl for the ffmpeg. But a better solution would be to use my own ffmpeg compilation in the buildroot staging tree. I'll have to look into that possibility a bit more.

For now, ffmpeg builds but there are errors with the omxplayer build:

I think this may be due to my using my modified huecke makefile with the popcornmix repo. I'm going to have to figure out the diffs for the huecke file and then apply them to the popcornmix file, possibly manually.

Made these mods and it got further but still dies:

Now I need to see if there is a stable commit I can use.

Turned out simpler than that. I just did an update of the gles tree and that got past the previous error, but now I've hit a dbus compile error.

In file included from OMXControl.cpp:7:0:
/usr/include/dbus-1.0/dbus/dbus.h:29:33: fatal error: dbus/dbus-arch-deps.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

Fixed this with proper use of targetfs and sdkstage. But then I ran into a packaging problem. Turns out there is a bug in the dist target of the omxplayer Makefile:

    cd $(DIST); tar -czf ../$(DIST).tgz *

This doesn't make any sense unless DIST is a relative directory. I'll need to patch this in my copy of the Makefile. That should be the final problem. I'll try the fix tomorrow.

Migrated to master branch of popcornmix repo. Verified missing library and font files are in the opkg.

Just need to test the new binary on the current distribution. If it works at all (even if with some bugs) then this issue can be closed.

Works great on the hardware. All updates checked in an pushed upstream.

Closing issue.
