info for development on IPBOX 350

[giorgino]

Hi developers,
I need your help for an important issue, so please support me. I would like to make some developments on the IPBOX350 and in particular I would like to realize a RTP client and streamer for that box, and I have also other ideas. As first thing I created, following an old post, an image for the box just to understand all the necessary steps. The image is created by a team and I don't know the way that this team use to make development on the box, so I would like to create a development environment in order to try to do something for myself. As tool i would like to use eclipse, but is there someone that can show me the necessary steps to create a development environment for IPBOX350? I would appreciate every type of information.

Thank you in advance.
G

I do not know how much you already know about the
Tuxbox project and its CVS code so I start from scratch.

Using our CVS you can compile images for Dbox2,
Dreambox and IPBox. This includes cross-compilers,
boot loaders, drivers (some binary-only, but they
are downloaded and extracted during compilation,
this is valid for IPBox and Dreambox) and the
Neutrino and Enigma GUIs.

For a quick start you can follow our VMWare HowTo
http://forum.tuxbox-cvs.sourceforge.net ... 13&t=48503
to setup a compilation environment and compile
an IPBox image yourself.

The next source for information is the IPBox thread
http://forum.tuxbox-cvs.sourceforge.net ... =7&t=48647
where you can find information gathered during the
process when the IPBox support was added to the
Tuxbox CVS.

If you want to compile an IPBox image you need to add

Code: Alles auswählen

--with-boxtype=ipbox

to cdk/configure options followed by one of the
desired boxmodels

Code: Alles auswählen

--with-boxmodel=ip200
--with-boxmodel=ip250
--with-boxmodel=ip350
--with-boxmodel=ip400

The make target you need is

Code: Alles auswählen

make flash-neutrino-squashfs

for a Neutrino-based image, for Enigma you need

Code: Alles auswählen

make flash-enigma-squashfs

Thank you for the information. I tried to read the post you suggested me but they are in germany language and I don't know this language. In every case I opened a similar thread on the cross compile section. I hope to receive other answers.
