TL;DR version only
- Dependencies that were installed using brew need to be installed using the option
--build-bottle
, otherwise they may not run on other CPU generations. - To make mpv compatible with older systems, both ffmpeg and mpv (and ideally all other dependencies) need to be compiled with
-mmacosx-version-min=10.8
:
ffmpeg: ./configure --extra-cflags="-mmacosx-version-min=10.8" ...
libass: CFLAGS="-mmacosx-version-min=10.8" ./configure ...
mpv: CFLAGS="-mmacosx-version-min=10.8" ./waf configure ...
To bundle the dependency libs, run this in mpv's folder:
TOOLS/osxbundle.py build/mpv
To codesign, you may need to swap the link and the binary (https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/8533)
rm build/mpv.app/Contents/MacOS/mpv-bundle
mv build/mpv.app/Contents/MacOS/mpv build/mpv.app/Contents/MacOS/mpv-bundle
ln -s mpv-bundle build/mpv.app/Contents/MacOS/mpv
codesign --force --deep -s - build/mpv.app
