Apple Silicon (ARM) support

[Silicon Apple]

Installed Command Line tools, Homebrew...
I followed Macvided's example above and was able to compile and run Avidemux on my M1 Mac Studio, but with OpenGL as the setting for Display->Video Display, all I get is a blank screen for the video.  If I set Video Display to QT it displays the video correctly. The audio displays fine with either setting.

What did I miss?

Thanks,

OpenGL display is broken with Qt6 >= 6.4.0, no idea how to fix yet. For macOS where using older Qt, especially Qt5, is impossible, the unaccelerated "Qt" / "RGB" display the only remaining option.

By the way, this is also the reason there is no 2.8.2 release.

I had to also install pkgconf with homebrew before compiling.

Just to say I had success building on an M1 mini running Sonoma 14.3.1 with XCode 15.2 using the instructions above, with git master (2.8.2) and brew as of 16th Feb.

First I created a case-sensitive volume, then using the process in Darren's post 18 above:

Code Select Expand

cd /Volumes/Developer
git clone https://github.com/mean00/avidemux2.git
cd /Volumes/Developer/avidemux2

git submodule update --init --recursive

brew install cmake nasm yasm qt xvid x264 x265 libvpx aom opus fdk-aac lame libass mp4v2 a52dec

bash bootStrapMacOS_Monterey.arm64.sh

Then open the dmg, and install the app to /Applications, and finally run the signing script.

Code Select Expand

sh avidemux/osxInstaller/macos-adhoc-sign-installed-app.sh

Thanks everyone that's worked on this!

No need to run signing script manually, it is invoked automatically during packaging now.

Will look into pkg-config not installed automatically and thus missing in the list of dependencies.
