MythTV Official Community Forum

Thanks for posting the link above - I missed this site on my rounds. Here's an actual hyperlink for it: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mythtvformacosx/files/MythFrontend-31-intel-10.13.6-v31-ce23a0225f.dmg/download That's a strange issue. I managed to drag and drop to the Applications folder on th...

Fair enough. Now that we've run this to this point, I feel comfortable submitting a bug report.

Craig you solved it!!!

Setting "Open in Low Resolution" in the app's get info got it working!

I'll get this added to the install script via the Info.plist gsed calls.

It is. I added the port to ansible anyways as it was available and didn't seem to hurt anything. Bill should be pushing another ansible fix in a bit that also includes the missing fonts.

Bill, I'll take a look.

Right now, the fonts and libX11 are the only items I've noticed that were different (I really thought there would be more...). The Catalina build needs the fonts where as the call to libX11 won't hurt and may fix some undiscovered "features"

Thanks Craig. I'll get them in my next ansible patch once I work through any required mods for High Sierra. So far only the fonts and libX11 are missing (and are probabaly optional to some extent).

So I'm running and compiling on a 14" Macbook Pro - 2015 early edition. I have 4 cores and 16GB of RAM and seem to have no major issues. Basically, if I can do this on a 5 year old computer, pretty much anything newer will work. If you elect to go the Hackintosh route, this site has build guides and...

So I (and a few others on the mythtv forums are experiencing issues with mythfrontend playback where the screen only renders the playback in the bottom left quarter of the screen. This only occurs when playing back non1080 (480p, 480i) videos (i.e. 1080p videos play fullscreen) There are also times ...

@Craig, I'm going to move the screen debugging to a new thread. After playing around this AM, I suspect there is a bug (or new feature) buried somewhere.

Thanks for the links! I'll try playing around this weekend and see if I can get it working.

I'll also get around to writing a Trac Bug report once I better wrap my head around the problem.

VideoToolbox is default. This issue is on video playback (at least on retina displays), some videos do not playback in fullscreens mode (for me anything 480i or 480p). Could be a bug or config issue.

not anymore: % ls ~/mythtv-31/31-osx-64bit/lib libmyth-31.31.0.0.dylib libmythbase-31.31.dylib libmythswresample.3.5.100.dylib libmyth-31.31.0.dylib libmythbase-31.dylib libmythswresample.3.dylib libmyth-31.31.dylib libmythfreemheg-31.31.0.0.dylib libmythswresample.dylib libmyth-31.dylib libmythfree...

Update: 7/5-4 - Python bindings and metadata retrieval now work Update: 7/5-3 - Now works with master / v32 Update: 7/5-2 - Remove dependency on makebundle.sh Update: 7/5 - Added ...

It's probably not necessary. I guess I was trying to resolve port consistency issues with the upgrade call, but that could probably create some other unintentional issues (plus a long upgrade cycle...).

Bill - if you remove "upgrade: yes" then everything should be good to go

yep, I'll fix it in the post. More coffee needed this AM.
