<div>I have made some progress on building using the
more normal method, i.e. not Docker method.</div>

<div>I'd like to suggest that some documentation
improvements might be in order. I'll take a stab
at this once I can document to my satisfaction
what work. There are 2 key missing dependencies:</div>
<div>libtool</div>
<div>autopoint</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Also what versions of NDK, build-tools, etc.
are very critical. I was using some newer stuff
and was not getting very far.</div>

</div>
<div>Anyway I was able to
build mythfrontend-20220812-arm-v32.0-59-gcf553e438c.apk
and it runs on my FIreTV 4K Max device. Still not
as good as Leanfront, but it's useful for all the
stuff you use mythfrontend for besides playing a
recording.</div>

<p>Great I have tried to build the Android version of the
Frontend previously and could not get it to build. So
looking forward to your guide.</p>

<div>As to a Guide. I start with the Readme on the
packaging/android page:</div>
<div><a

moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://github.com/MythTV/packaging/tree/master/android</a><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I created an issue (<a
href="https://github.com/MythTV/packaging/issues/126"
moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://github.com/MythTV/packaging/issues/126</a>)
with my suggestions which contains some missing dependencies
and some clarifications at least from my understanding. To
keep from messing up my whole system in case I screwed up, I
created a KVM VM with Ubuntu 20.04 Desktop and used that for
building up an Android builder system. I did NOT use the
Docker method even though I tried, but with my edits you can
do it in the more traditional way.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We found a fix for a digital audio 5.1 problem that I've
been talking recently to Klaas about on this mailing list.
You can either incorporate those changes or wait a few days
for the official fixes to roll out. I have it working on my
PC and am building it now for my FireTV 4K Max stick and
Shield TV.</div>
