These instructions will walk you through setting up your Mac to compile and generate a Mythfrontend.app and .dmg file for MacOS.


Building Mythfrontend with Macports and Ansible

Important.png Note: This page is meant to help those who wish to build Mythfrontend.app v31 and later for MacOS. Most users should visit MythTV on Mac OS X instead. The script has been tested on:

  • v31 on both High Sierra / Xcode 10.0
  • v31 on Catalina / Xcode 11.3 - 11.5
  • master (v32) on Catalina / Xcode 11.5

Install Xcode, Xcode Command Line Tools, and MacPorts

About MacPorts

MacPorts is a stable and mature system for bringing open-source software to the Mac platform. Changes are tested and reviewed before being committed to MacPorts. MacPorts operates several build slaves which automatically build the default variant of each port. All this means that if you decide to try building with MacPorts, there is a strong likelihood that it will just work. And, if it doesn't, there is an active support system working to resolve any problems.


Follow MacPorts' directions for installing MacPorts for your respective version of MacOS. These instructions will walk you through installing Xcode, the Xcode Command Line Tools, and MacPorts.


Important.png Note: Remember to run "sudo port -v selfupdate" after installing MacPorts to update the MacPorts repositories

Run the compileMythFrontendAnsible.zsh Script

Save the following script to your system as "compileMythFrontendAnsible.zsh" and make executable.

The script can now be downloaded from github here: compile script download

The script automatically performs the following steps:

  1. Sets up the build directory structure (tries to mirror the mythtv dev team's structure)
  2. Installs ansible-playbook via MacPorts
  3. Clones the MythTV ansible git repository
  4. Installs MythTV compile requirements and their dependencies via ansible/macports
  5. Clones the MythTV git repository, applying any user specified patches to mythtv or plugins
  6. Clones the MythTV Packaging git repository, applying any user specified patches
  7. Configures, builds, and installs MythTV to a temp directory
  8. Optionally Configures, builds, and installs MythPlugins to a temp directory
  9. Deploys QT to the compiled mythfrontend.app
  10. Copies the required dylibs, support data, and fonts into the app linking
  11. Packages mythfrontend.app into a .dmg file

### Note - macports must be installed on your system for this script to work!!!!!
if ! [ -x "$(command -v port)" ]; then
