any way to install scrcpy on AVL MXE? [Solved]

[IndioBlanco]

I've tried the methods that worked for me on Ubuntu, and now, even following the steps on the website https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/bl ... c/linux.md , I can't get it. I get a "Git error" in the final steps of the process.
Does anyone know how to do this correctly on this distro? I've been looking through the forum and haven't found anything that resolves my question, or I haven't found the right post...
A little help?

There appears to be a topic discussing the install here

thanks, I've tried it now and don't works

When I just tried to install it there appears to be a mismatch of versions of libswresample-dev, and the correct one is in the test repo. so I did the following and it installed.

MX Package Installer, search for libswresample-dev
change to test repo and uncheck "hide Library and developer packages"
Install libswresample-dev


Then Download scrcpy 2.1.1 from
https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/ar ... 1.1.tar.gz


Extract the downloaded file to desired location and then edit install_release.sh to get the correct scrcpy server installed. Change lines 5 & 6 to this.

Code: Select all

PREBUILT_SERVER_URL=https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/releases/download/v2.1.1/scrcpy-server-v2.1.1
PREBUILT_SERVER_SHA256=9558db6c56743a1dc03b38f59801fb40e91cc891f8fc0c89e5b0b067761f148e

then in a terminal where the script you changed is located, run

Code: Select all

./install_release.sh

Not sure about AVL, but those instructions work for me in a MX-23.6-ahs live session. I don't know why they wouldn't work in AVL as well.
It does look like scrcpy was updated just yesterday to version 3.3, so maybe things were still in a state of flux when you were trying to installing it.

English in this forum please. If you need too the topic can be moved to the spanish forum.

[Eadwine Rose]

No the topic cannot be moved. It has started in English, it needs to stay in that language.

[IndioBlanco]

excuse me ...I went to me, it was a mistake with the automatic translator of the browser
