Sunshine RockChip Fork

Warning

This fork is for Rockchip platform only and has only been tested on RK3566 chip!

Note on Performance: Although a dedicated FFmpeg version for Rockchip is used and can find the rkmpp encoder, it currently occupies CPU significantly, similar to not using rkmpp hardware encoding at all.

Build Instructions

First, install build dependencies:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y \
   git meson cmake pkg-config gcc libasound2-dev libdrm-dev ninja-build libv4l-dev \
   libboost-all-dev
sudo apt-get install -y \
   build-essential gcc-10 g++-10 libayatana-appindicator3-dev libxtst-dev wget \
   libavdevice-dev libcap-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libdrm-dev libevdev-dev \
   libminiupnpc-dev libnotify-dev libnuma-dev libopus-dev libpulse-dev \
   libssl-dev libva-dev libwayland-dev libx11-dev libxcb-shm0-dev \
   libxcb-xfixes0-dev libxcb1-dev libxfixes-dev libxrandr-dev

Then, build rkmpp and rkrga modules:

git clone https://github.com/HermanChen/mpp.git rkmpp
cd rkmpp
mkdir ./build && cd build
mkdir -p rkmpp/rkmpp_build && cd rkmpp/rkmpp_build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
   -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON -DBUILD_TEST=OFF ..
sudo make -j$(nproc)
sudo make install

git clone -b jellyfin-rga --depth=1 https://github.com/nyanmisaka/rk-mirrors.git rkrga
cd rkrga
meson setup ./ rkrga_build --prefix=/usr --libdir=lib --buildtype=release \
   -Dcpp_args=-fpermissive -Dlibdrm=false -Dlibrga_demo=false
meson configure rkrga_build
sudo ninja -C rkrga_build install

Get specific ffmpeg build from lvxingye/build-deps repo:

wget https://github.com/lvxingye/build-deps/releases/download/ubuntu-20.04/ffmpeg.tar.gz
tar -xvf ./ffmpeg.tar.gz
mv ./ffmpeg_build ./_deps/ffmpeg

Clone this fork:

git clone https://github.com/lvxingye/Sunshine_rk.git

Configure with CMake (disable CUDA and enable Rockchip support):

cd Sunshine_rk
cmake -B build/ -S ./ \
   -DSUNSHINE_ENABLE_CUDA=OFF \
   -DSUNSHINE_ENABLE_ROCKCHIP=ON \
   -DFFMPEG_PREPARED_BINARIES="`pwd`/_deps/ffmpeg/" \
   -DSUNSHINE_ASSETS_DIR=share/sunshine \
   -DSUNSHINE_EXECUTABLE_PATH=/usr/bin/sunshine

Build Sunshine (it's preferred to use 2 processes to avoid OOM):

cd build
ninja -C ./ -j2

Install Sunshine:

sudo env "PATH=$PATH" ninja install
