Topic: Setting up SVP on Plex Media Player on Mac

Forgive the relatively newbie question.

I found instructions to configure SVP on Plex Media Player for windows here..

https://www.svp-team.com/wiki/SVP:Plex_Media_Player


Are there (or can someone help with) instructions to setup Plex Media Player to use SVP on the mac?

Thanks for any help anyone can give.

Re: Setting up SVP on Plex Media Player on Mac

I'll try to set it up on Monday or Tuesday and complete the wiki article if necessary. I just don't have access to an OS X rig now.

As in Windows it's all about locating libmpv-1.dylib (or whatever it's called in OS X) and replacing it with the one built with Vapoursynth support.

Thank much. Looking forward to the wiki article update.

Re: Setting up SVP on Plex Media Player on Mac

The short summary:

# install mpv with "with-shared" option
brew install --with-vapoursynth --with-shared mpv

# save libmpv from Plex
mv "/Applications/Plex Media Player.app/Contents/Frameworks/libmpv.1.dylib" "/Applications/Plex Media Player.app/Contents/Frameworks/libmpv.1.backup"

# replace it with the one from brew
ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/mpv/0.17.0/lib/libmpv.1.dylib "/Applications/Plex Media Player.app/Contents/Frameworks/libmpv.1.dylib"

# create mpv's config file
echo "input-ipc-server=mpvpipe" >> ~/"Library/Application Support/Plex Media Player/mpv.conf"

Re: Setting up SVP on Plex Media Player on Mac

Plex  под mac os больше не будет работать с SVP?

По инструкции с ВИКИ и по инструкции с файла установки пытался устанавливать - не получается.
(инструкции разные)

You have to downgrade to mpv 0.36 for Plex to work:
brew uninstall mpv
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homeb … a/m/mpv.rb
brew install mpv.rb
brew pin mpv

- эта попытка оканчивается какой-то ошибкой формулы. Перенос файлов из текущей версии mpv не даёт запустить воспроизведение видео в plex после правки конфиг - файла.
Те же действия после переустановки мак ос (12.7.1 (21G920) приводит к аналогичным результатам.

Существует какое-то решение?
