Anybody manage to get this to compile? Mine gets stuck on FFMPEG.
Something about copy error right after “Performing download step (DIR copy) for ‘ffmpeg’”, sometimes it gets stuck there for hours on 100% CPU usage.
Hi,
I have compile without big problem (or small ones … that can be able to be solved easily) 14.04 LTS fully up to date.
did you follow the procedure provide in this topic ? :
In all case, people able to help you (not sure I can) … need more precise information or log or terminal log …
Philippe.

it is copying itself into the directories recursively and so it just goes until you force it to stop. Try doing your build in a different directory that worked for me.
There is now a wiki on GitHub, here https://github.com/RasPlex/OpenPHT/wiki/Building-OpenPHT-from-source-on-Ubuntu-14.04

I followed the guide NedTheNerd linked and it seemed to compile without issues, however it’s not showing up as an application that can be launched? The only step that confused me was where it just randomly has the directory /usr/local/lib in the list of commands. Were we supposed to cd into that directory before running sudo ldconfig?
We’re providing a .deb package for Ubuntu with the next release of OpenPHT in addition to all of the other ‘flavours’, so no need to build it yourself in future.
Regards
Deb packages now available for Ubuntu and Debian, see the 1.6.2 release notes (just released).
Regards.
Hi.
How does it work the autostart? (start script and init file)

I’ve Googled for you!
Try autostart - How do I start applications automatically on login? - Ask Ubuntu
Regards
Thx.
Sorry I wrote it wrong. 
The system is Ubuntu 14.04 server. (forums.plex.tv/discussion/comment/505693/#Comment_505693)
Scroll down to the ‘Non GUI approach’!

Can I use the DEB somehow for standalone OpenPHT? Tried installing it, broke all my self built OpenPHT as well as old Plexhometheater - can’t start those anymore, X starts, few seconds later comes back to bash shell with “Unable to find path to XBMC” error.
Remove & reinstall Plexhometheater (latest version) repaired everything.
So either the DEB uses other directories than I do, or something is wrong with the XBMC_HOME environment var.
I’ll try test some more in the weekend
dpkg -c openpht-official.deb
dpkg -c plexhometheater.deb
check conflicts
rebuild yours avoiding above.
if its environment var use
export XBMC_HOME=/opt/openpht/share/XBMC; /opt/openpht/openpht
Thanks a lot, will give it a go on the next deb release!
I used the .deb file with the “Ubuntu Software” and its working fine!
The only thing i don’t know is when there is a update, maybe i need to do that manual. (i didn’t add a repo)
Tried again to run the version from the DEB on Ubuntu 14.04
I get instant crash, segmentation fault.
dmesg output:
