Support Apple TV 4 #452

Open mrdest opened 8 years ago

mrdest commented 8 years ago

Following this post on the official thread, can you please compile for Darwin/ARM so users who sideloaded Kodi to Apple TV 4 will use Quasar?

Bountysource

mrinsane commented 8 years ago

Yes, we are all waiting for this, that would be awesome :8ball:

mrdest commented 8 years ago

I tried to do it myself, but it didn't go well. What I did:

  1. Cloned cross-compiler, libtorrent-go and quasar
  2. Added darwin-arm64 to cross-compiler and libtorrent-go
  3. Updated main Dockerfiles and travis with the new folder name.
  4. Created darwin-arm64/Dockerfile in cross-compiler and libtorrent-go
  5. Build cross-compiler
  6. Build libtorrent-go

The problems I thought about:

  1. Architecture name: arm64 vs aarch64
  2. Darwin version: 14 vs. 15
  3. OSX version: 10.10 vs 10.11
  4. OpenSSL version?
  5. BOOST_VERSION?
  6. SWIG_VERSION?

Would be great to get help here.

Thanks!

Started uploading SDKs to: Apple-SDKs maybe it will be helpful to duplicate and edit:

@scakemyer, I've seen your comment in #694, and I can see why it can take a week to create binaries for iOS and tvOS, as @si458 said I can also help to compile and test on iOS and tvOS .

In my opinion, Quasar for tvOS will be a killer addon, I believe it will increase Apple's developer program registrations :)

scakemyer commented 7 years ago

I thought it was the same SDK but I guess I was mistaken. I hope you won't get into trouble for putting those on GitHub...

mrdest commented 7 years ago

No they are no the same. I saw this repository: MacOSX-SDKs and cross-compiler uses it (here). It should be the same idea for iOS and tvOS.

I hope too :/

scakemyer commented 7 years ago

It's a little more complicated than that unfortunately. It also needs osxcross which doesn't support iOS or tvOS, see this issue which has a few useful links about setting up the toolchain for iOS; not sure how or if it could apply to tvOS.

mrdest commented 7 years ago

I will look into it. Thanks for checking!

elgatito commented 7 years ago

There is an experimental branch of migrating from libtorrent to gotorrent ( anacrolix/torrent , pure go-language torrent library) - https://github.com/elgatito/quasar/tree/gotorrent

I could not build it with existing docker images. Maybe someone can try to build it.

https://github.com/PopcornTimeTV/PopcornTimeTV/releases https://github.com/PopcornTimeTV/PopcornTorrent This app seems to work okay on my Apple TV 4, and apparently it uses libtorrent, could someone use that code somehow for Quasar?

elgatito commented 7 years ago

If someone wants to test on iOS, you can try my fork https://github.com/elgatito/plugin.video.elementum . I want to get some feedback from iOS users.

mrdest commented 7 years ago

@elgatito Does it support tvOS?

elgatito commented 7 years ago

@mrdest , you can try download and run the biggest zip and share kodi.log after all. there is a build for ios and osx, tvOS is another os from Apple?

mrdest commented 7 years ago

I'll try. Yes, tvOS is for Apple TV 4 and 4K. Kodi builds: http://mirrors.kodi.tv/test-builds/darwin/tvos/ Instructions to sideload Kodi for Apple TV: http://www.redmondpie.com/how-to-sideload-install-kodi-on-apple-tv-4/

elgatito commented 7 years ago

Yes, OS detection failed. You can try to manually run different binaries, to see how it loads. So far i've read, tvos is different from ios.

mrdest commented 7 years ago

Tested also on iPad. Installation was successful but restarting Kodi shows this message:

No available JSON_RPC connection to Kodi. Enable both Application control options in Service settings/Control and restart Kodi.

All options are checked (enabled). kodi.log

Have oyh enabled remote controls in kodi settings?

mrdest commented 7 years ago

Yes I did.

mrdest commented 7 years ago

Unable to find Elementum binary
Required platform: ios_arm

I think the problem is cross-compiler does not have task for ios_arm*. The release page has the builds, though. Related: #445

elgatito commented 7 years ago

Yes, there is no ios_arm arch, only ios_arm-7 and ios-arm64. Can you try copy directory "resources/bin/ios_arm-7/" info "resources/bin/ios_arm/" and try then? Just to see what happen when binary is loaded.

...AttributeError("'module' object has no....

I can't see the full notification and it's not written to the kodi.log file.
