Am I using the latest pvr.mythtv.cmyth build ? - unkle - 2012-12-09

Hi,

Building Fetzerch's source and installing seems pretty straight forward Smile
However, when doing a "git pull" and rebuilding, how can i be sure that my XBMC is actually running the latest pvr-addon ?
The last few days I've just rebuild after the pull and then installed via "Install from zip file", - is this enough ?

Procedure is:
Code:
git pull
./configure --enable-addons-with-dependencies
make clean
make zip
cp addons/pvr.mythtv.cmyth-linux-i486.zip /home/mylogin/pvr.mythtv.cmyth-linux-i486-4.zip
(renamed for keeping older versions)
(...rebuild XBMC and start XBMC...)
System -> Settings -> Addons -> "Install from zip file" and then point it to pvr....-4.zip

Can someone verify that this is correct ?
When checking the addon-settings/configuration it always shows the same version-number for pvr.mythtv.cmyth -> "1.6.5.0"

That should be fine. The version stays the same in source until a release, so when doing incremental updates you won't see that version change often.

Hi,
I'm glad you got this plugin working - is there anywhere to download the compiled addon in a zip for ATV2? I can't find it anywhere? If someone could send me the zip or a link to get it I'd really appreciate that! Cheers!

Ok, thankyou Smile I started wondering because my settings got saved in between upgrades, "Backend IP", "Database password" and so on. But I guess its stored in /userdata and therefore untouched by installing new zips.

On the wiki there are instructions for building it on OSX. You could try that Smile
