    Hello guys,

    I like to install the svn builds on my test system, to report bugs for developers..

    The only problem is that I don't know how to install this builds..

    I know how to use TortoiseSVN, and how I can receive all files from the source.. But after receiving all those files, It isn't a installer yet.. So my question is what I have to do with al those files..

    Hope someone can help me!

    best regards,

    Marcel

    Hi Powemarcel10, that we call "SVN build" is a custom compiled build ;-) you need to install visual studio 2010 then launch some .bat to compile the source code. After this you will obtain <your src path>\trunk\Release\Setup-MediaPortal-svn-1.1.7.28078.exe and <your src path>\trunk\Release\Setup-TvEngine-svn-1.1.7.28078.exe (for example) and use it to update the last official release.

    At this time my computer run on a temporary system disk, if you can wait the end of the week I hope received 2 brand new one for a raid 0, after I will can seriously reinstall my computer and make a SVN build. Send me a PM, I will can put it on my FTP if you want ;-)

    As Rekenaar said,

    [...] but in the mean time you can look here:
    Compiling - MediaPortal Wiki

    I believe that page actually sums it up pretty well.

    Install the Prerequisites (you can ignore '1.' if you only wish to be able to compile) and NSIS from the Optional prerequisites. When checking out the source, you might wish to use https://sources.team-mediaportal.com/svn/public/trunk rather than the individual projects. When done, first run 'MSBUILD_Rebuild_Release_MediaPortal.bat' and then 'MSBUILD_Rebuild_Release_TVServer_Client.bat' from the the build folder. After the scripts have completed you should find two installers, one for MP and one for TVServer, in the release folder.

    Try it out, and just ask if you have any problems!
