Which file should I install for a Raspberry Pi 2

Post by nzdreamer55 »

Hello,

I would like to install Filebot 4.6 onto my raspberry Pi, however the files I can choose from are filebot_4.6_noarch.ipk or filebot_4.6_i386.deb. Can someone suggest the best one to use?

Thanks

Quick google search reveals that the Raspberry Pi 2 has a A 900MHz quad-core ARM Cortex-A7 CPU, so using the i386 arch debian package certainly is not an option.

I recommend using the portable or ipk package, but you'll need to grab (optional) native libraries yourself if you need any of the (optional) features that require chromaprint/mediainfo/7z native code.

Thank you. There are a lot of things that even if I google, still don't make sense. I'll use the ipk and get the options libraries.

Hello,

I have installed the version below and it works fine:
FileBot 4.5.6 (r2818) / Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0 (headless)

My question (to Rednoah) is, can I use the latest Jar files or must I stick with the one of that version??
