Installing Comskip on a Raspberry Pi 3 using OSMC (Deb 8.9)

[wbeard52]

I am trying to install Comskip onto my Raspberry Pi 3 which is running OSMC August 2017 update. This update is based on Debian Jessie 8.9.

I am following the instructions listed in a how-to guide on the OSMC forums. (https://discourse.osmc.tv/t/howto-autoe ... tion/37137)

Code: Select all

# 7) Install dependencies:
cd $HOME/sources
sudo apt-get install libargtable2-dev
git clone git://github.com/IfThenERROR/Comskip
cd Comskip
./autogen.sh
export CPPFLAGS='-I/opt/vc/include -I/home/osmc/ffmpeg_build/include'
./configure
make -j4
make install
cd $HOME
rm -R --interactive=never ~/sources/Comskip

When I go to make comskip, I am presented with an error stating I do not have lx265 or other libraries. I cannot find or don't know how to install the lx265 library. I am assuming it has something to do with ffmpeg.

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmmal_core
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmmal_util
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmmal_vc_client
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lbcm_host
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lx265
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Makefile:423: recipe for target 'comskip' failed

Here is the output of the ./autogen.sh script

Code: Select all

Preparing the Comskip build system...please wait

Found GNU Autoconf version 2.69
Found GNU Automake version 1.14.1
Found GNU Libtool version 2.4.2

Automatically preparing build ... done

The Comskip build system is now prepared.  To build here, run:
  ./configure
  make

Any help would be appreciated.

you are most likely missing the -dev packages.

I was able to install libx265 via the jessie-backports repository. After recompiling ffmpeg, I was able to install Comskip.
