I have been trying to compile XBMC on Windows 7 with the new PVR Addons for a couple of days without success. I have been following this guide at the XBMC Wiki. I have downloaded dushmaniac's repo from github.com.
First I will say I have (next to) zero experience compiling, and even less with git (or any other SCM tool). So I have read everything that I can on the forums, wiki and google to teach myself how to get this done.
I have tried using the buildsetup.bat and Visual C++ both to compile. I did once get a succesfull executable, but then the PVR addons could not be enabled (this was also using dteirney's repo which from what I have read is out of date)
My setup:
Dublin - Windows 7 32?bit
Athens - Ubuntu 10.10 with myth 0.23 installed
My questions:
1. Are there any necessary additions to the steps used in the wiki guide in order to compile for PVR support.
2. Using Git Bash, when I "git clone" and it clones the entire tree, how then do I compile the branch that I want.
3. The compile error out of Visual C++ is a "C1083" (I'm at work so I can't past the actual error message) I get this on a bunch of lines.
Thanks
