MacOS MPV DLL/Dylib

[willwrong]

Hi there,

I'm having trouble finding the library file for MPV on MacOS -- I've come across three .dylib files (mpvlib-1.dylib, and a couple others), but none work when placed in the file path of the Python program.

Any ideas where I should look?

Thanks,

Will

I'm not an OS X user, but have a look at this comment. Note that you need not just libmpv, but also about three dozen other libraries such as libav.

Hi,

for finding the required libraries I have had to change the @rpath in @loader_path in libmpv.1.dylib (and other libs) and put my python script in the same directory than all the libraries (from the IINA project).

The tool is install_name_tool and the commands are:

install_name_tool -change @rpath/libjpeg.9.dylib @loader_path/libjpeg.9.dylib libmpv.1.dylib

Hmm, didn't work for me.

Try brew install --force-bottle mpv

7 months ago installing mpv required full Xcode installation, but recently
I upgraded mpv and I'm pretty sure it was re-installed from a bottle (binary).
If that was so, you wouldn't need Xcode to install it now.

(Xcode is a 7 GB download and won't install if you have <~20+ GB free space.
Brew always wants xcode CommandLineTools present, but it's a lot smaller.)
