webOS 6 libdile_vt won't start

[tavalin]

This line returns null resulting in a -1 return code in libdile_vt.capture_start(). Investigating further, this line in dile_vt.c always returns null which seems to cause the -1 return code.

@Informatic Am I missing something? Is the real libdile_vt missing on my TV?

root@LGwebOSTV:/tmp# LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./hyperion-webos -a 192.168.0.191
Error! capture_start: -1.

Yes. Seems like this library is missing on webOS 6.0.1. You'll likely be better off trying libvtcapture backend.

@Informatic does this help?

root@LGwebOSTV:/tmp# ldconfig -p | grep libdile_vt
        libdile_vt.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libdile_vt.so.0

[Informatic]

Not really. I guess they still have libdile_vt.so in the system, but it's just a stub that returns errors, since it's not supported. If the library was missing altogether, we'd get something like unknown symbol DILE_VT_Create

[Informatic]

Did you try latest piccap release in regards to libdile_vt? Nevertheless, if libvtcapture works well (enough) then we don't necessarily need to figure out libdile_vt in your case.

[tavalin]

I can confirm using piccap 0.2.3 that libdile_vt still doesn't work. I have also upgraded my TV to 6.2.0 now that the new root exploit is ready.

Let me know if you need me to do further testing

Edit: as libvtcapture doesn't work for the likes of Netflix etc, if technically possible, having libdile_vt working would be a benefit

I figured out how to get libvtcapture to work, needed to increase the timeout on my flatbuffer server #50

As for now there are specific libraries working on certain webOS versions: https://github.com/webosbrew/hyperion-webos#video-capturing
