Do you have a guide to create a docker container out of the compile?
Maybe you can also provide me a DL link, so that I can try your containers on Debian wheezy?
Thx

give this a whirl, it's an all in one dockerfile, builds in wheezy.

you'll need to provide an advancedsettings.xml with your mysql details in, config is /opt/kodi-server/share/kodi/portable_data, port is 80 (you'll probably need to remap) it throws up some error about clementine, but the webui works, that's as far as i've tested.

not clementine, lol...

this is the error

I already compiled kodi-headless.

The Main-Goal is to create a plugin for OpenMediaVault, which contains the compiled binary and all the other settings-stuff from /opt/kodi-server in a (portable) docker-container and a simple GUI for settings of Kodi-server like Serverport, Serverpassword, mysqluser and -pw.
The Users don't have to install 844586 new packages for Kodi-Server (just like it was with the xbmc-library-scanner.so)

If I read you posts correct, I need only this part:

Code:

# set base os
FROM debian:wheezy
ENV DEBIAN_FRONTEND noninteractive
# Set correct environment variables
ENV HOME /root

RUN echo "[supervisord]" >> /etc/supervisor/conf.d/supervisord.conf && \

this is isn't anything like the standalone scanner in gotham

i'm not aware of such a thing for helix (there could be, but i don't know)

this will need some dependencies to run.

if you want to push it to users as a completed thing, push it to git, then add an automated build in dockerhub and pull the whole thing from there.

i made it as small as i could in wheezy, but it's still quite big (1.2 gig)

Steps I took to get this working:

1) cd
2) git clone https://github.com/topfs2/xbmc.git kodi-helix-headless
3) cd kodi-helix-headless/
4) git checkout helix_headless
5) ./bootstrap
6) ./configure --prefix=/opt/kodi-helix-headless/
7) make
8) sudo make install
9) /opt/kodi-helix-headless/lib/kodi/kodi.bin --headless &
Can't open display

** keeps running! **

I found a stray g_xrandr call in application which might have been the cause for this, if you have time please test again, I'd love to hear the results. e0026f0fe3

Just triggered new build in a docker of this that pulls your git.

[sparklyballs]

the "can't find display" error is gone from building the commit, but it still doesn't seem to be populating the database(s)

[Maskawisewin]

The modified windows build can be downloaded here - http://cyanlabs.net/files/Kodi.exe

Just another Windows Server 2012 R2 user chiming in. I want to help but I'm overloaded with six courses this term. Regardless, thanks for getting this started. I'm still using Helix as I found Kodi to be quite buggy so as it stands it's not a solution for me right now. If you're having a specific problem that you want to test on another system PM me.

I managed to build and run kodi-headless on Mac OS X Yosemite today. It seems to run fine, though in my limited testing, kodi-headless segfaults whenever (audio) playback stops.

Stops as in when you try to stop it or when it has played one song, or one playlist?
I'd love a backtrace if possible, or some more details on how to reproduce it.

Thanks for testing!

Hi

I would like to run kodi on a server with https://github.com/Jalle19/xbmc-video-server.

Everything seems to work but if i try to download a file from the vfs (http://kodi.wiki/view/Webserver#Virtual_...tem_.2Fvfs) i get a "HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized"

The same request works on my laptop which is using the same db and storage but with kodi from the stable ppa.

Can someone confirm this behavior?

EDIT: Fixed. It was my fault.

It can step through playlists fine. This is true even while changing between file formats and sample rates and bit depths (i.e. mp3 to alac, or from 16bit/44.1kHz to 24bit/96kHz). Kodi Audio Output method is set to "Best Match."

segfault 11 only occurs when a "stop" command is issued (i've only tested via iOS remote) or when playlist ends.

Below please find links to debug logs, as well as the OS X problem reports. I've also included the command line debug output. I couldn't figure out how to use lldb to generate a backtrace from a core file, but I'd be happy to provide this once I figure out how to accomplish this.

Hopefully the files are labelled clearly and appropriately.

And thanks again for all your work in developing kodi_headless. I've been waiting for such an iteration for a long time, and your vision accords perfectly with my hopes/wishlist.

Awesome thanks, will see if I can track it down!

[bauruine]

Is it possible to add a background task to extract the filestream details so that kodi displays the media flags (http://kodi.wiki/view/Media_flags)?

[fizze]

I'm currently running the minified server build of Gotham from this thread http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=132919&page=57 and saw this project and wanted to try it out.

Sadly I can't even compile it on my Ubuntu Server LTS 14.04.01 x64.
I have compiled xbmc a couple of times (Frodo, Gotham), but never Helix until now.

Here are my configure flags:

Code:

./configure --enable-shared-lib --enable-nfs --enable-libbluray --disable-debug --disable-vdpau --disable-vaapi --disable-crystalhd --disable-vdadecoder --disable-vtbdecoder --disable-openmax --disable-joystick --disable-xrandr --disable-rsxs --disable-projectm --disable-rtmp --disable-airplay --disable-airtunes --disable-dvdcss --disable-optical-drive --disable-libusb --disable-libcec --disable-libmp3lame --disable-libcap  --disable-fishbmc --disable-spectrum --disable-waveform --disable-avahi --disable-alsa --disable-dbus --disable-pulse --disable-texturepacker --disable-udev --disable-hal --disable-libvorbisenc  --prefix=/opt/kodi-server

I'm getting errors like these when compiling:

I've used the same configure flags for Frodo and Gotham builds successfully in the past....
