How do I run this program?

http://popcorntime.io/

I download the 32bit archive, extract, try to run popcorn-time.so and nothing happens; my cpu ussage does not even go up.

Help, please and thank you ^_^

The raspberry pi is not 32 bit or 64 bit. It uses the armv6 and unless you have the source code, from git or somewhere, there is no way to run it on the pi (unless it can run under mono).

You do realize this is illegal right?

Edit: just looked and seems like the git page has been taken down. You do realize this is illegal right?

I can compile it as I have the source, what command line for grunt would I need to compile it for ARM?

It's not illegal

The program is compiled via grunt build, but what commands should i add so i can build it for Rasbian?

Look at this page for info: https://github.com/popcorn-time/popcorn ... /README.md and you will need npm also.

At least in the us, it is illegal.

I use it to stream personal torrents (That are not illegal) and I know how to build it for windows and I have all the requirements on my windows machine to build and cross compile, I just cant find the argument for grunt to build it for arm.

I can make a torrent file of a movie on my pc and copy the magnet into popcorn time and it will stream, so as long as I stream personal media files, it is not illegal.

It is much easier to do the work on the raspberry pi. I personally have never cross compiled and find it easier to do it all on the pi. As for the illegal part, sorry, I misunderstood.

I've been googling and it's an issue with nodewebkit and stuff

I realized why not get xmbc, but when I do apt-get install xmbc I get an error saying that a dependency was removed

If you want XBMC then use OpenElec or Raspbmc distro's

I was wondering if it is possible for you try some other similar fork of popcorntime.io. There are many similar site like popcorntime which are based on same code base and are available for free download. Try those

If I remember correctly, Kodi has popcorntime in it's programs section for download and install. I could be wrong, though.
