Description

I am following the process in readme page and it worked like a cham for pvr , rtmp ... but I fail with ffmpegdirect.

I type the command:
inputstream.ffmpegdirect/build$ cmake -DADDONS_TO_BUILD=inputstream.ffmpegdirect -DADDON_SRC_PREFIX=../.. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../../xbmc/build/addons -DPACKAGE_ZIP=1 ../../kodi/cmake/addons/

and get the cmake error :
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:510 (message):
inputstream.ffmpegdirect did not match any of the supported addons. A list
of supported addons can be viewed by building the 'supported_addons'
target. Addon definitions are loaded from ADDONS_DEFINITION_DIR
(/home/tpgre/.kodi/kodibuild/kodi/cmake/addons/addons).

I would be glad if I could get some help to sort out this.

Research direction

Start with the README build process and the CMakeLists.txt failure at line 510. Run the supported_addons target and inspect the ADDONS_DEFINITION_DIR path shown in the error, comparing inputstream.ffmpegdirect with addons that build successfully. Done means the addon is recognized by ADDONS_TO_BUILD and the documented command completes.
