The win32 test build gets compiled at the moment
If you want to test my branch under linux with the latest libbluray version a short todo list:

• remove a possibly pre-installed libbluray version
  
• checkout libbluray from git://git.videolan.org/libbluray.git
  
• build libbluray master from source configured with --enable-bdjava (and with freetype) and install it
  
• build my branch https://github.com/ace20022/xbmc/commits/bdj

EDIT: Rebuilt Kodi, this time using correct branch I believe (System Info showing 133ca72), still no joy though. Updated steps for those interested in helping or for the less linux savvy people out there (like myself) trying for themselves. BTW, if I'm not supposed to post this here, my apologies.

Tried building libbluray and the bdj branch but not sure if I've done it correctly. Is there any way to check, i.e. by Kodi version number?

My System info lists: Git: date-ae419a7-dirty if that is any help. Edit: Lists correct version info now.

I downloaded libbluray 0.6.2 from the vlc site and built it succesfully I think, only the building of the bdj branch I'm not really sure of. Here are the steps I followed (roughly) so if I did something wrong, can someone correct me or point me in the right direction please?

As you may find I'm no linux expert ...

1) Get updated packages and dependencies

Code:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get build-dep xbmc

Had to also install these somewhere down the line, thought I'd include them here:

Code:

sudo apt-get install libcap-dev libtool libxml2-dev libfreetype6-dev default-jdk ant git-core

When building kodi, had to get a newer version of libcec:

Code:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pulse-eight/libcec
sudo apt-get install libcec

2) Removing, building and re-installing libbluray

Code:

sudo apt-get remove libbluray1

cd /usr/local/src
wget ftp://ftp.videolan.org/pub/videolan/libbluray/0.6.2/libbluray-0.6.2.tar.bz2
tar –xzv libbluray
cd libbluray

sudo ./bootstrap
sudo ./configure --enable-bdjava

I believe all went well:

Code:

Output:
Summary:
  --------
  BD-J support:                  yes
  BD-J type:                     j2se
  Font support (freetype2):      yes
  Metadata support (libxml2):    yes
  Build examples:                yes

Finally make and install:

Code:

sudo make -j2
sudo make install

3) Build kodi branch with libbluray enabled

Code:

sudo git clone -b bdj https://github.com/ace20022/xbmc.git
cd xbmc

git clean -xfd
sudo git reset --hard
sudo git pull --rebase

Source used: http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Compile_XBMC_for_Linux

Code:

sudo ./bootstrap

# Adjust following options if necessary, i.e. vdpau disabled and vaapi enabled

sudo ./configure --disable-pulse --enable-libbluray --enable-vdpau  --disable-vaapi (--disable-crystalhd --enable-libmp3lame) <---- last two options unrecognized

# Adjust -j2 accordingly or leave out, had some warnings

sudo make –j2
sudo make install

4) Reboot

Code:

shutdown -r now
