You can update the file using Filezilla then you will see the lib folder.My problem is after a reboot the old librtmp is back in the folder.Any solutions to fix this problem??(Sorry for my english im from Germany)

I am no expert but sorting it in android is easy

1.Just download any xbmc apk, also download latest librtemp.so file.

2.open the apk file with winrar, inside there is a lib folder and inside that armebi-v7a folder open it . Then press add and choose the newest librtemp file, when that is done close winrar.

3 Install zipsigner https://play.google.com/store/apps/detai...2&hl=en_GB

4 Copy the previously edited xbmc apk to the sd card and use zipsigner to sign it

5 Install the signed apk

This is working for me for the redirect and all but some previously working channels not working

my friend what do u mean by "press add and choose the newest librtemp"

Just press the button under the file menu (the big book shaped button named add) , or you can right click inside armebi-v7a folder and select add files to archive

Can you tell us what to do in Zipsigner? I created a signed apk,installed it but it did not work.Get no Internet connection in Xbmc.Which Keyoption should i use in Zipsigner?

Can you please tell me what device you are using , I have used the default keyoption , but used the xbmc apk from my device's original rom and worked very well

A Minix x5 mini with newest 4.2.2

(2013-10-18, 12:49)phinc Wrote: [ -> ]I have two questions:
- Why is the latest librtmp not included in the Gotham Alpha and Nightly builds?
- Since the problem on Android seems to be that the new librtmp is replaced by the old one after reboot, would it be possible that we run a script at startup that updates the librtmp again?

The Alpha and Nightly builds would just include the "normal" librtmp that Team XBMC uses. They stated they will not use a patched version only official new version which the rtmpdump doesn't seem too interested.

Also I have looked in to the Android issue, but for no apparent reason once 4.3 came out librtmp started working for nobody and I can't seem to find the exact cause

Thanks you.

Use the RasPi file for Linux ARM devices. Should work. Please write back either way so folks know.

Android 4.3?

If so I am currently working on a new Android toolchain, to try and see if that's what's crashing Android's XBMC for everybody.

I believe it's a 4.3 issue because even the librtmp files that folks had no issues with in the past now crash on Android.

Thank you for the reply. Buy I'm running j1nx build root Linux version. Can you guide me to update the lib rtmp on it?. Thanks.

Are you completely positive you are using the complete latest of my file? I have played CBS stuff on Windows all the time with no issue. That exact episode plays for me also. Sometimes I gotta click on it once or twice to get it work on the Free Cable plugin anyway.

In the mediafire folder there is no osx version available for the latest KSV release.

I've been tryin to compile it myself but need librtmp to be 32bit and I can't figure out how to do that on my 64bit mac?

Thanks for any help!

EDIT Finally managed to compile a working version using:

Code:

make SYS=darwin CFLAGS='-arch i386' LDFLAGS='-arch i386'

Sorry about that, I got busy and couldn't create the Mac ones in a speedy manor. Though I will make sure to get them out. Been spending so much time debugging Android to no success

thanks RP for the reply

I am not able to rename it says read only file system also tried chmod to change it to 777, still not able to change the chmod. Win scp is not connecting to my android box running on linux (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthre...?t=2418029) . is there any way to change the librtemp in the linux rom before flashing

aby

If any one using AML8726-MX Tv-Box (Droid TV MX) , the new linux rom from croniccorey is with the latest librtemp an is working like a charm http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthre...?t=2418029

(2013-08-10, 10:26)RedPenguin Wrote: [ -> ]Oh well. Thanks for the info. Was wishing this worked cause it's difficult to explain this stuff to OpenELEC users, but guess nothing can be done.

I've determined a solution for OpenELEC that allows any system library used by XBMC to be replaced by an alternative third party version - it's a pretty ugly hack, but it does work with an unmodified 3.1.x build without any problems, and given the only other alternative is a custom build this makes it a lot less trouble despite it's ugliness!

It involves using autostart.sh to halt the initial load of xbmc.bin, modifying LD_LIBRARY_PATH and then initiating a secondary load of xbmc.bin but now using the third party libraries (librtmp etc.). The hack will only be applied when the /storage/lib directory is present (exists), and when autostart.sh is being called during the boot sequence (when the parent process ID is 1), and when /storage/lib isn't detected at the beginning of LD_LIBRARY_PATH (and thus needs to be added). The check for PPID means it is possible to call autostart.sh without re-invoking xbmc.bin, which may be useful when testing/debugging other autostart.sh functionality...

Gotham Update

Gotham builds of OpenELEC totally change the boot process. The latest version of hacklib will now detect when booting on a Gotham build and simply copy /etc/profile.d to a temporary location, add an extra script to the new profile.d folder which fixes up LD_LIBRARY_PATH, then substitute this modified profile.d folder for the standard /etc/profile.d directory. New processes, including xbmc.bin, will now reference the new profile.d folder and as a result will use the fixed up LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

To update, just download the latest hacklib file, and if using mktmplib download that also.

Installation instructions: (See end of post for direct download instructions)

1. Create /storage/lib and populate with third-party libraries. Download the latest librtmp.so.0 for RasPi or Linux/x86 from Red Penguins Repo, and create the librtmp.so symbolic link:

Code:

mkdir -p /storage/lib
<Download librtmp.so.0 from RedPenguin's "Repo">
chmod 755 /storage/lib/librtmp.so.0
ln -s /storage/lib/librtmp.so.0 /storage/lib/librtmp.so

2. Create /storage/.config/autostart.sh using vi or nano:

Code:

#!/bin/sh

# Hack for third-party libraries
[ $PPID -eq 1 -a -f /storage/.config/hacklib ] && . /storage/.config/hacklib

# Rest of autostart.sh goes here...

3. Create /storage/.config/hacklib (see download link)

4. Reboot.

Optional Extra
When mounting /storage across a network (eg. over NFS or SMB), there will be an increase in network activity as /storage/lib is checked for library files (99.9% of which won't be found) and this could result in reduced UI performance (slightly longer load times etc.). To eliminate any network overhead, you can instead host the thirdparty library files in memory backed storage.

To accomplish this, download the mktmplib file in /storage/.config/mktmplib - when present, it will be called by hacklib and transfer the third party libraries to memory back storage the location of which will then be prefixed to LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Disabling 3rd Party Libraries
To disable the hack:

Code:

mv /storage/lib /storage/lib.bak && sync
reboot

Download instructions
Downloadable versions of autostart.sh, hacklib and mktmplib are available on Dropbox - use the following commands to download the files:

Code:

cd /storage/.config
curl -L http://is.gd/kBaTzY -o autostart.sh
curl -L http://is.gd/yQUqNm -o hacklib
curl -L http://is.gd/GJdaEY -o mktmplib

I am thinking about updating to 3.2.4, and just wondering if all this is still necessary to update librtmp ? Many thanks in advance..
