Do you want to contribute to Open Vision and you don’t know where to start? https://forum.openvision.tech/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=306 is for you.
You could download our builds from https://openvision.tech/stb-images/
- How to use sdcard images (E.g. raspberrypi):
You could use https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/ or similar tools to write the image on a sdcard.
Please use our forum at https://forum.openvision.tech or our issue page at https://github.com/OpenVisionE2/openvision-development-platform/issues
- Are you allowed to compile development versions? Yes!
- Are you allowed to distribute development versions? Yes but only with "unofficial-version" tag.
- Are you allowed to make our images compatible with clones? Yes!
- Are you allowed to distribute cloned images? Yes but only with "clone-version" tag.
- Do we support clones? No!
- Are you allowed to make backup of our images? Yes!
- Are you allowed to distribute backup images? Yes but only with "backup-version" tag.
- Do we provide support for self-building? No! We prefer to work on our projects.
- Do we need more Vision Developers? Absolutely yes! Contribute to our git and we will contact you!
- Do we need more Vision Testers? Absolutely yes! Test our images and report bugs, help us grow you'll see the title flows.
- Do we support our image in multiboot situations? No! Check about screen and if our module is not loaded then you're on your own!
If you see your model in https://github.com/OpenVisionE2/openvision-development-platform/blob/upcoming/Vision-metas.md it means there will be Open Vision for it otherwise read https://forum.openvision.tech/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=30 and don't spam the board!
You could compile Open Vision for so many brands/models:
- Vision-metas: https://github.com/OpenVisionE2/openvision-development-platform/blob/upcoming/Vision-metas.md
- Clone openvision-development-platform:
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/OpenVisionE2/openvision-development-platform.git
- Run our image.sh script (Do not run bitbake or any related script as root!):
cd openvision-development-platform
./image.sh
If you want to compile an image for only 1 machine just choose "Specific".
If you want to go clean again, do not remove your "sources" directoy! Never!
- Removing the "build" directory solves most of the errors. For a fast remove use "rm -rf build". (If you just want to reduce the build size use "cleanup.sh".)
- If you want to compile images for old machines like dm800/cube/su980, first build for them.
- If you want to compile images for x64 machines like alienx/kxpx series, first build for them.
- If you want to compile images for 4K machines with ARM architecture and you get error each time, try compile for a Mipsel machine like dm7020hd first then compile your ARM images.
