This time I decide to use the version in PPA's karmic release instead the svn version (the previous one on svn was not very stable, crash now and then), first add xbmc and nvidia-vdpau repositories (xbmc depends on nvidia-190-libvdpau-dev, though I am still using 185 since the 190 version crash with tv-out, might goes to another post)
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nvidia-vdpau/ppa
You still need to add the source part into apt source list, (add-apt-repository can get the key for you, which is convenient, wish it can support an option to add the source part too). Add this line to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/team-xbmc-ppa-karmic.list
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu karmic main
Then install the needed libraries for building xbmc, and download the source codes.
sudo apt-get build-dep xbmc
apt-get source xbmc
sudo apt-get install libbio2jack0-dev libjack-dev libjack0.100.0-dev libjackasyn-dev
You should have the source codes ready after a while. As a comments in my previews post said, the audio interface was changed a little bit in the new xbmc source, though fortunately it's not a big change, so the previous patch can works just fine after some minor changes. get the patch from this address.
* https://sites.google.com/site/yjpark/downloads (xbmc-9.11~beta1-jack.patch)
patch -p0 < xbmc-9.11~beta1-jack.patch
Then do the normal configure, before make, please add "-ljack" into Makefile, (search the line LIBS=..., add it to the end of the line will be fine), after that make should work.
One important thing to note, to make the audio matching video, you probably should change the delay constant in xbmc/cores/AudioRenderers/JackDirectSound.cpp.
float CJackDirectSound::GetDelay()
{
Update();
return m_timePerPacket * (float)m_packetsSent + 0.4;
}
Just play an correct video file, adjust audio delay to make it sync, then add the value you used into the end of the return line will be ok (ahead means plus)
Note: C++ library for Jack is from Jack_CPP (http://x37v.info/jack_cpp/doc/index.html) (by Alex Norman, with pretty good documetation and examples, thanks again), I included the needed files in the patch, though suggest you to look at the documents on his site for more information.
What's next
Currently this is not working if enabling real time support in jackd, probably will do some research on this part.
Also plan to find a way to deal with the ugly delay part, ideally can calculate the delay, if too hard, probably will retrieve the value from config, then won't need rebuild for it.
And make the library detecting with the proper way, both in code and also in configure process (not a c/cpp programmer, so might need some time), then no manual change needed.
If I can finish all these, then will try to commit the patch to xbmc.
