$SOURCEDIR is where your VDR sources are. In this directory there is a folder called PLUGINS/src. This is your sourcedir.

http://ppa.launchpad.net/henningpingel/xbmc/ubuntu
http://ppa.launchpad.net/the-vdr-team/vdr-ubuntu-karmic/ubuntu
I passed all procedure (without libxine1-vdpau-plugins).

@herman
you are right. One cannot mix the versions of libxine – but the dependencies should be resolved automatically – if I remember correctly.

@acmelabs
Thanks a lot!
I want to use XBMC, therfore I have to use 1) from the vdr-team like here described http://blog.mymediasystem.net/avchd/xbmc-on-karmic-with-vdpau-and-vdr/

Is that correct or is there a XBMC version which works with version 2)?

acmelabs — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 04:38:40 +0000

@herman
1) You’ve got to use now the repo from the vdr-team, like Diable mentioned. Look up here the repo you are interested in: http://www.henningpingel.de/vdrstuff/vdr_trendy_features_matrix.html

2) If you should decide to take https://launchpad.net/~the-vdr-team/+archive/vdr-ubuntu-karmic , then there won’t be libxine1 any longer. It’s libxine2. And libvdpau is 195+ meanwhile.

Simply perform a
aptitude search libxine
aptitude search libvdpau

and install the appropriate packages.

Good Luck

Hello,

I added each ppa you described, but I get always these messages:

Konnte kein Paket finden, dessen Name oder Beschreibung auf »libxine1-vdpau-plugins« passt.
Konnte kein Paket finden, dessen Name oder Beschreibung auf »nvidia-190-libvdpau« passt.
Konnte kein Paket finden, dessen Name oder Beschreibung auf »libxine1-vdpau-plugins« passt.
Konnte kein Paket finden, dessen Name oder Beschreibung auf »nvidia-190-libvdpau« passt.

These packages couldn’t be found. What can I do?
