Hi all.

I've created an extension that will download and compile ffmpeg for you based on the configuration that your already installed ffmpeg used.
You need the latest version to be sure it'll run correctly. See the previous post.

Copy the following code and create a file in ~/bin/include/build.leia/ffmpeg.inc.

You can now run build.leia --with=ffmpeg

2017-11-19 - Updated to ffmpeg 3.4
2017-05-01-  Updated script to reflect the changes in build.leia 1.5.6.

Please see the code at https://gist.github.com/kekePower/d2dedc...d855cefafa

Howdy.

A few weeks ago I pushed an "After-the-holidays" update, bumping the version up to 1.5.17.

No major changes, just a little cleaning.

[kekePower]

Hi.
Fresh from the press comes a major update that I'm really excited to give you.

I've created a patch that enables us to add our own, personalized string to the System Information screen, bottom right side.

Here is what it looks like for me.


The build.leia.conf file now includes an extra option called MY_GIT_VERSION that you can edit and add your own string that will show up when you've compiled Kodi.

Please enjoy and happy hacking!

A lot of changes throughout the code, including in the build.leia.conf file. Please add the difference to your local copy.

You can read more on Github https://github.com/kekePower/build.leia/...tag/v1.6.2

Happy building :-)
