Error with compilation of xbmc

[Levi59]

I wanted to compile the latest xbmc from source GIT following the wiki tutorial gitub for xbian (https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/wiki/Compiling-XBMC-&-XBMC-dependencies) but I get a compilation error:

Code:

I don't know why it crash because I don't have modify any commande of the wiki...
help please!

I forgot to update the wiki after the last change, fixed now.

EDIT: The latest XBMC for XBian is available here: https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbmc-nightly/

I have a probleme with the compilation. when i want to install dependancy, it need to install libc6 and remove rpi-update. If i said yes, the install work but system seem to be broken after and i can't reboot. if i do a reboot, i see same colored screen and nothing else. I test with no overclock and i've the same result. what did i can do?

i see thant the nightly don't need to be compiled. is there dvdcss on it? if no, is there any precompiled version with dvdcss and optical-drive enabled?

[Koenkk]

The nightly is compiled with both

Strange ... I managed to install the nightly build but my dvd player usb isn't recognized. I don't know how to fix it.

do you actually realize that the DVD or anything related to optical drives or formats is just an experimental and was never meant to work on RPi?
just my 5cents into this so you know that you may experience a lot of issues and you may save a lot of time if you just convert all your old stuff into digital format and some decent container/codec

i have actually a 1To hard drive full of movie, TV series and music and i don't have the place for all my dvd. So I would really get to read my dvd without converting...

I have the same problem as described above. What I did:
Installed a clean version of xbian alpha 5.
Made a bigger swap file (had to as I'm compiling on a 256 MB Model B).
Followed all the steps described in the wiki.
XBMC compiled fine, but after I reboot, only thing I see is a colored gradient for some seconds, then the pi switches off.

How can I get around that issue?

Any help would be appreciated

You have to remove the initramfs line from your /boot/config.txt

Awesome, a big thanks to you!
Now I'm back in the game
