Cross compilation

[gcobb]

A couple of notes have asked about the cross-compilation tools.

In 2002, M. Drew Streib (dtype) created the tivodev package of cross-compilation tools. These still work for me under the latest version of Debian and probably still work on other versions of Linux. You can download tivodev from http://www.cobb.uk.net/Tivo/tivodev-2.5 ... e2.tar.bz2

To use, un-bzip2 and untar into /home/tivodev. Then read the README.

If you want to see some code which can be built with tivodev, my apps are available on http://www.cobb.uk.net/Tivo/

Thanks Graham, I'll be looking at that later.

You might prefer my updated TiVo cross-compiler, available here: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/maxwells.d ... piler.html

I think that was based on the same source as dtype's, but I made a number of fixes - in particular to remove the need for libtivohack. It's built to run on Linux and Windows (Cygwin), or it's pretty easy to rebuild. There are also a number of ported Linux tools.

The NSS stuff looks useful. But a small word of warning... maxwells_daemon's libosd seems to be a different beast from my/Jake's libosd at my site!
