We have automatically built all packages that will get rebuilt due to
this change.

This gives evidence on whether the upgrade will break dependent packages.
Note sometimes packages show up as failed to build independent of the
change, simply because they are already broken on the target branch.

looked at the diff and this update will require changes - marking as draft until myself or someone else can get around to it

Hi @aanderse. Thanks for pulling me in. I tried to update the addon, it can be compiled and started in Kodi, but playing video files now requires a proprietary extension "Widevine".

I was having a look and widevine-cdn is packaged in Nixpkgs because it is also required by Chromium when playing DRM content. Do you know how to integrate widevine-cdn into Kodi? Can I simply require the already existing package to be installed, or does it have to be integrated similar to the other Kodi dependencies?

As I understand it, there must be two symlinks in .kodi/cdm to files from widevine-cdm package: libwidevinecdm.so, and manifest.json.
This should be enough for inputstream-adaptive and inputstream-adaptive-helper to detect and use it for playback, I guess this should be the case for orftvthek as well.
Disclaimer: this didn't quite work for me on aarch64-linux even with inputstream-adaptive (but I think version mismatch is to blame).

hmmm... so how does the netflix addon for kodi work in nixpkgs? i believe this requires widevine as well... provided by inputstream-adaptive, right? what is the difference between this addon and netflix?

[dschrempf]

OK, thanks for your suggestions and sorry letting you wait @aanderse and @nvmd. I managed to get the addon working, but:

• inputstream-adaptive is not enough, we really do need the widevine-cdm links @nvmd has mentioned. It is interesting that Netflix works with inputstream-adaptive only which does not provide the DRM stuff (according to the GitHub readme).
• I have not added the links to the addon derivation yet but instead created them in my home configuration. Could you help me a bit in how to achieve adding the links from the Kodi addon derivation? How can I add a link to the .kodi/cdm directory from within buildKodiAddon? Is this even possible?

Thanks for your help!

[aanderse]

i seen to recall using the netflix addon years ago and i had a pop-up asking me to install widevine and everything worked fine.

• why does this work with netflix but not here?
• does this addon work if installed through the kodi package manager, and if so, why?
• what are we missing? let's not hunt for workarounds but instead figure out what we're missing and hopefully it makes sense... and if not, discuss with relevant upstream(s)

[dschrempf]

I see. I think I did not even click the "install widevine" stuff, but assumed it has to be done using Nix, and I managed doing so using links in my personal configuration. I can test if automatic install via Kodi is working, if this is preferred over adding those files using buildKodiAddon. Please let me know!

[aanderse]

but assumed it has to be done using Nix

i assumed the exact opposite... your assumption leads to better results but takes more work

how would it work to automate this? the links can exist in nix store?

maybe we merge this the way it is but continue this conversation in another PR?

what do you think?

[dschrempf]

Sorry for the delay! I created a new PR superseding this one: #325934.
