I used the ./configure with the --enable-amplayer --enable-neon and for some reason they give me a warning at the bottom of the edting of ./configure with a warning - stating that they are unrecognized. Anything outside of the custom set depends works, its frustrating to get nothing working that I suggest. I check the file inside of /xbmc/ main folder and I see that the configure.status file has an options that I select with nothing like below.

libnfs="1"
libamplayer"" <<-----notice no number at all, disabled is 0

......

What am I doing wrong that prevents me to use any variable that I enabled? should I use --enable-amplayer=yes or --enable-player=amplayer ......as I thought they were the same.

Thanks.

Take a look at tools/android/depends/xbmc/Makefile, specifically line 23 where the other --enable options are. You'll want to add " --enable-player=amlplayer" to that line. You should not need to set "--enable-neon". NEON instructions are on by default.

./configure --help

tells you want you want to know and the options.

I have the ./configure --help from the xbmc root folder which gives the other atrribute instructions and commands. I thought I was doing it correctly with the ./configure command and had a few compiles build without an issue but when debugging I noticed amplayer was gone. Thanks for the advice guys, kemonine96 I was trying the neon option because I wanted to see how good omxplayer is with certain media (if better than the other players) with certain codecs and filetypes so I can make a good automated playercore file, I thought gles and neon was a requirement but I will recheck.....sorry I did not note before, going to try everything out and see how it goes

--enable-player enable additional players from a list of comma
separated names, (default is none, choices are
amlplayer, omxplayer)

so usage would be --enable-player=amlplayer

I believe NEON is enabled by default now. I had to make a few tweaks to disable NEON to get XBMC running on Tegra2 SoC's that lack NEON.

I have noticed that NEON makes a big difference overall in XBMC, I wouldn't disable it unless you have a good reason.

Thanks, I will get rid of the --enable tag since its useless, by the way instead of editing the ./configure again I just took your method of editing the makefile - I was trying to edit the wrong one inside the root folder and not the one inside of depends/xbmc but it went through great. Going to test this morning to see if all is good. Thanks again.

Hi guys

I just bought two xios-ds , i run both xbmc with linux build and android

I want to enable Amplayer for decoding in Android , i search lot in forums but i can t find a clear instructions
T
p,s: i have a good knowledge in programming , so feel free to give me your advices

thx Undecided

you don't want Amplayer, use https://github.com/Pivosgroup/xbmc

sami-xavi · 2013-01-25, 07:31

Thx for your post
But i want just to figure out what i need to
Like writ a xml file or what
Sorry

davilla · 2013-01-25, 07:43

eh ? why would you want to write an xml file ? If you have good knowledge in programming, then docs/README.android should make perfect sense.

You might have better luck using the user nightly builds over at http://www.pivosforums.com/viewforum.php?f=11
