Fix VAAPI hardware decode on LibreELEC x86_64 by building from source#2
Merged
Conversation
The upstream moonlight-qt AppImage was compiled without SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER_KMSDRM, causing vaapi.cpp's KMSDRM display path to be excluded at compile time. On LibreELEC (headless KMS), SDL reports subsystem SDL_SYSWM_KMSDRM (13), which fell through to "Unsupported VAAPI rendering subsystem" and forced software decode. Fix: build moonlight-qt from source using Debian bookworm's libsdl2-dev, which has SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER_KMSDRM defined in its headers. Also add runtime libs: - libSDL2.so* (previously came from AppImage, now must be bundled explicitly) - libGLESv2.so* (rendering stability on GLES2/EGLFS path) - libdrm.so* (required by the VAAPI DRM display path at runtime) Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01JCvMzW9nTj4VvqGiyFdt8T
- Add GitHub Action to build and push the amd64 Docker image to GHCR on every push to main, with GitHub Actions cache to speed up rebuilds - build.sh now pulls the pre-built image from GHCR instead of compiling locally; falls back to a local build if the pull fails - Pin Dockerfile base image to a specific Debian bookworm-slim digest - Pin MOONLIGHT_VERSION to v6.1.0 (was master) - MOONLIGHT_VERSION is also set as a repo variable so it can be bumped without editing the Dockerfile Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
