Compile XBMC with crystalhd support

Some distros offer XBMC binaries build without crystalhd support thus we have to do it on our own. Here is a copy paste solution for you.

equo install cmake app-arch/xz-utils automake swig icedtea

Download XBMC from git repository

cd /usr/local
git clone git://github.com/xbmc/xbmc.git
git checkout Eden
then,

cd xbmc

Install dependencies in your distribution, or install the xbmc from the repository which will pull all (hopefully)  dependencies. I needed yasm only.

equo install yasm

As usual,

./bootstrap

Make changes in the configuration below as you please

./configure --enable-crystalhd --enable-vaapi --enable-openmax--disable-joystick --enable-rtmp --enable-libmp3lame --enable-airplay --enable-libbluray --enable-libvorbisenc --enable-pulse --enable-udev --disable-goom --enable-neon --enable-vaapi --disable-hal --disable-ccache --disable-optimizations --enable-gl --disable-debug --enable-mid --disable-webserver --disable-pvr --disable-mysql 

make -j4


You can either;

make install

or you can create a shortcut with the path and use like that without installing.
Bon appetit.
