How to build for Linux

First you need to satisfy some dependencies (for Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS)

sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-dev libfontconfig1-dev libxext-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libasound2-dev libasound2-dev libgtk2.0-dev libxss-dev libxxf86vm-dev libxv-dev libvdpau-dev yasm libpulse-dev libssl-dev curl libwebkitgtk-dev libsqlite3-dev libavahi-client-dev

Then you need to configure:

./configure

If your system lacks libwebkitgtk or some other lib you can configure like this:

./configure --disable-webkit

If any dependencies are missing the configure script will complain. You then have the option to disable that particular module/subsystem.

make

Build the binary, after build the binary resides in ./build.linux/. Thus, to start it, just type:

./build.linux/movian

Settings are stored in ~/.hts/showtime

If you want to build with extra debugging options for development these options might be of interest:

--cc=gcc-5 --extra-cflags=-fno-omit-frame-pointer --optlevel=g --sanitize=address --enable-bughunt

How to build for Mac OS X

To build for Mac OS X you need Xcode and yasm. Xcode should be installed from Mac Appstore.

To install yasm, install Brew and then

$ brew install yasm

Now run configure

$ ./configure

Or if you build for release

$ ./configure --release

If configured successfully run:

$ make

Run Movian binary from build directory

$ build.osx/Movian.app/Contents/MacOS/movian

Note that in this case Movian loads all resources from current directory so this binary can't be run elsewhere.

If you want a build that can be run as a normal Mac Application you shold do

$ make dist

This will generate a DMG

How to build for PS3 with PSL1GHT

$ ./Autobuild.sh -t ps3 -v 5.0.500

How to build for Raspberry Pi

First you need to satisfy some dependencies (for Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS 64bit):

sudo apt-get install git-core build-essential autoconf bison flex libelf-dev libtool pkg-config texinfo libncurses5-dev libz-dev python-dev libssl-dev libgmp3-dev ccache zip squashfs-tools

$ ./Autobuild.sh -t rpi -v 5.0.500

To update Movian on rpi with compiled one, enable Binreplace in settings:dev and issue:

curl --data-binary @build.rpi/showtime.sqfs http://rpi_ip_address:42000/api/replace
