macOS support

[ben-cl]

:)Hi!
I love the project. Works well on my PC. Content de voir que L'UdeM à contribué (Je suis de Montréal aussi hehe). If I follow the Linux installation instruction, will it work on macOS?
I have the m1 chips if that changes anything.

Thanks!

The linux installation instruction should work, but I vaguely remember something about Apple deprecating OpenGL on the M1 chips? If there are problems you could try using Vulkan instead of OpenGL. https://mpv.io/manual/stable/#options-gpu-api

:)Thanks for your feedback, it is working! I did spend some hours trying to figure out the best way.

First I did install mpv with the help of this reddit post. It works but it is a challenge to get native build for ARM: https://www.reddit.com/r/mpv/comments/qt41pl/how_to_build_mpv_for_m1_macs_arm64/

After more research, the best way I found is to use iina : https://github.com/iina/iina
The player is base on mpv, but much easier to install and have a modern look.
First you need in preferences - Advanced, to Enable advanced settings with the Use config directory.

We add the shaders folder as usual.
After in preferences again we can import the input.conf file inside Key Bindings, with Import an existing config file.

Strange to say but I haven't yet contributed to an open source project. If I could create a pull request with more detail instruction for Mac, I would love too!

Thanks again
