Error trying to install Comskip

I am following the tutorial on how to install an Automated DVR with commercial detection. [HowTo] Autoedit – Fully automated DVR with commercial detection - #16 by t2rich

To get ffmpeg to install correctly, I needed to modify the …/sources/ffmpeg/x265/source/CmakeLists.txt file and change -mcpu=native to -mcpu=cortex-a53 and -march=native to -march=armv8-a. It was a suggestion to get Comskip to compile and work.

I ran this script at the end </>ffmpeg -encoders | grep omx</> and got the correct output.

When I try to make Comskip after I </>./configure</> and then </>make</> I get the following error:

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

How do I install lx265?

Thanks

Pi is not armv8a

For a RPi3 what should I make that value?

armv7-a

But I guess there are other options in that command not fitting the Pi3

I reinstalled ffmpeg changing the CmakeLists.txt file for these two text strings
-mcpu=native to -mcpu=arm1176jzf-s
-march=native to -march=armv7-a

Again ffmpeg installed correctly. When I go to make Comskip. I get the same error.

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lx265
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Makefile:423: recipe for target 'comskip' failed
make: *** [comskip] Error 1

I included the whole output for easier debugging. I am on a Raspberry Pi 3 using OSMC build (2017.08-1).

Unfortunately nothing on the internet is helping me fix this issue trying to install Comskip. Does someone know what lx265 is and how I can install it? Is it a video codec? Should I reinstall ffmpeg with different parameters?

Please help.

It means it can’t find libx265.so You’ll probably need to install libx265-dev but it seems to be available only in jessie-backports, stretch, buster and sid.

Thanks. What is jessie-backports? I updated my sources.list to include jessie-backports by typing
deb Index of /debian jessie-backports main

Is that right?

Hi,

Looks right to me.

Backports are:

" recompiled packages from testing (mostly) and unstable (in a few cases only, e.g. security updates) in a stable environment so that they will run without new libraries (whenever it is possible) on a Debian stable distribution" - from.

Thanks Tom.

That line is correct.

Just remember you need to run

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libx265-dev

then you need to edit /etc/apt/sources.list and comment out (or delete) the jessie-backports line and then again

sudo apt-get update

to remove jessie-backports from the list of sources.

I was able to successfully install Comskip and finish the tutorial [HowTo] Autoedit – Fully automated DVR with commercial detection on a Raspberry Pi 3 using OSMC August 2017 update.

Here are the changes I needed to make:

At the very beginning, install x265

   # Edit apt sources list and install libx265
   sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list
   Add “deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main”

   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install libx265-dev

   remove extra line from sources list

Right after the line cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" -DENABLE_SHARED:bool=off ../../source in step #3

Edit the ../sources/ffmpeg/x265/source/CmakeLists.txt file and replace the following
-mcpu=native  to  -mcpu=arm1176jzf-s
-march=native to -march=armv7-a

I did this using Wordpad on Windows since I could connect to the network share.

When installing Comskip I added some export commands. Here is the complete step

# 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'
export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/vc/lib -L/opt/vc/lib/pkgconfig -L/opt/vc/lib/plugins"
export CPPFLAGS='-I/opt/vc/include'

./configure CFLAGS='-L/opt/vc/lib'
sudo make -j4
sudo make install
cd $HOME
rm -R --interactive=never ~/sources/Comskip

Everything else was installed as described in the tutorial. I have a Word document listing all the steps I took if anyone wants it.
