| − | MythTV is working on the new Intel based Apple Macintosh platforms. This page is intended to share information among the people attempting to build and optimize the Intel Mac code.
| + | #REDIRECT [[Myth on Mac OS X]] |
| − | | |
| − | In the 'contrib' directory of the MythTV source code, there is a perl script which automates the build process for MythTV on MacOS systems. The script is called osx-packager.pl. The descriptions of changes needed assume that script as a starting point.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | == 0.20 Status ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Sept 14, 2006 -- Most of the build issues were resolved in recent svn updates. With the final 0.20 release, running osx-packager.pl will result in a working build, with no modifications. 0.20 included some late additions for MacOS, including an MMX optimized colorspace conversion routing for intel Macs.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * The 'enable Altivec colorspace conversion' option was changed to 'enable vector optimized colorspace conversion' to include MMX/SSE in intel based Macs.
| |
| − | * Make sure the vector optimized colorspace option is enabled for Intel Macs. Without this enabled, video output may be distorted.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | ==Changes Needed for older builds==
| |
| − | Here's a brief summary of changes needed to build MythTV on an Intel based Mac system:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Update QT version being used. 3.3.4 doesn't compile with gcc 4.0; 3.3.5 compiles but generates a bus error when displaying Myth menus. Using a development snapshot of 3.3.6 seems to work. Replace the QT url in osx-packager with the following: ftp://ftp.trolltech.com/qt/snapshots/qt-mac-free-3.3.6-snapshot-20060311.tar.gz (these snapshots are changed frequently, pick a current one from that directory)
| |
| − | A.Weder (18.03.2006): I had to remove "-no-style-mac" from the qt-mt conf options in osx-packager.pl, since I got compile errors about QMacStyle not being defined in widgets/qtabbar.cpp. This is for the qt 20060317 snapshot of qt-mac 3.3.6, but also seems to hold for earlier snapshots.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Override Host for sourceforge? I found the availability of packages to be spotty on the default host, if it fails, replace the hostname with a working host.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * libdvdnav: Endian byte swapping missing from src/dvdread/bswap.h The following can be added to use Apple-supplied routines:
| |
| − | #elif defined(__APPLE__)
| |
| − | #include <libkern/OSByteOrder.h>
| |
| − | #define B2N_16(x) x = OSSwapBigToHostConstInt16(x)
| |
| − | #define B2N_32(x) x = OSSwapBigToHostConstInt32(x)
| |
| − | #define B2N_64(x) x = OSSwapBigToHostConstInt64(x)
| |
| − | Note that this is not required with the latest version of the mythtv source and osx-packager.pl, because that library is not built.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * libexif: compile failed. replace 'static ExifSShort' by just 'ExifSShort' in libexif/exif-utils.c near line 83. The latest osx-packager.pl uses the latest libexif and auto-applies a small fix for it to compile.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * libdvdread: Endian byte swapping missing from dvdread/bswap.h See bswap.h changes above.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | MythTV changes:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Update osx-packager.pl to add configure parameters used in building MythTV. In the section "configure mythplugins, and mythtv, etc", the 'mythtv' portion should look something like this:
| |
| − | | |
| − | 'mythtv'

| |
| − | '--extra-cxxflags=-msse -msse2 -msse3',
| |
| − | '--prefix=' . $PREFIX,
| |
| − | ],
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Adding '--disable-firewire' may be needed, if you get an error about a missing "AVCVideoServices" framework.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * This diff, against the released 0.19 codebase, fixes a crash and allows video to work:

| − | == Enabling MMX ==
| |
| − | The frontend will run fine without MMX, but you can save a lot of CPU overhead by re-enabling the MMX optimizations in the MPEG2 decoding code, especially for HD video. Faster iMac or MacBook systems may be able to get by without this. To do HD video on the Mac Mini, the MMX patch is probably necessary.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Enable MMX and memlign_hack in the configure options in osx-packager.pl
| |
| − | | |
| − | 'mythtv'
| |
| − | => [
| |
| − | '--disable-distcc',
| |
| − | '--disable-firewire',

| − | '--enable-mmx',
| |
| − | '--arch=pentium-m',
| |
| − | '--enable-memalign-hack',
| |
| − | '--extra-cxxflags=-msse -msse2 -msse3',
| |
| − | '--prefix=' . $PREFIX,
| |
| − | ],
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Add "-read_only_relocs,warning" to the QMAKE_LFLAGS line in the MythTV build config. Without this change, I get an error: "ld: resample.o has local relocation entries in non-writable section (__TEXT,__text)"
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Apply the patch found at [http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2006-February/007608.html this link]. This changes involve mostly syntax revisions, to appease Apple's choice of tools.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * For 0.19-fixes: I got "Undefined Symbols" errors in the MMX assembly code, related to the "relocation entries" errors above. The only way I could get it to compile is to remove the "MANGLE" macros in the assembly code in libavcodec. To 'mangle' the variables by hand, just add an underscore before the name. So the code would change from '"movq "MANGLE(magicF2W)", %%mm7 \n\t"' to '"movq _magicF2W, %%mm7 \n\t"'. The files affected are:
| |
| − | libs/libavcodec/i386/dsputil_mmx.c
| |
| − | libs/libavcodec/i386/motion_est_mmx.c
| |
| − | libs/libavcodec/i386/simple_idct_mmx.c
| |
| − | libs/libavcodec/liba52/resample_mmx.c
| |
| − | | |
| − | The MANGLE macro was fixed in the 0.20 svn code. So, a simpler solution would be to add those updates. I'll try to go back and do a clean build, with the 0.20 svn updates, and revise the info here.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Enabling Apple Remote ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | * To get the apple remote working, apply the patch attached to this [http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/2017 mythtv trac ticket.] This patch is for the 0.19.fixes branch. There is a patch already applied to HEAD which enables this functionality.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Front Row integration ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | * mt-daapd is a DAAP server that will let iTunes (and therefore FrontRow) see the mp3's you have on your myth backend. [http://www.mt-daapd.org/ http://www.mt-daapd.org/] Movies are also served via DAAP, but mt-daapd doesn't support that yet.
| |
| − | | |
| − | With myth using all the remote buttons, you won't be able to activate Front Row. If you want to still be able to launch Front Row with mythtv running, you can save this bit of applescript somewhere like /usr/local/bin (compile it with applescript editor)
| |
| − | tell application "System Events"
| |
| − | key code 53 using {command down}
| |
| − | delay 0.5
| |
| − | key code 53
| |
| − | end tell
| |
| − | | |
| − | Then add this section to the myth menu in programs/mythfrontend/library.xml
| |
| − | | |
| − | <button>
| |
| − | <type>MUSIC</type>
| |
| − | <text>Front Row</text>
| |
| − | <action>EXEC osascript /usr/local/bin/frontrow.scpt</action>
| |
| − | </button>
| |
| − | | |
| − | (I like to add it to the "Media Library" menu...)
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Current Status ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Application successfully compiles. MythTV menu system displays, communicates with backend, and displays video. HD MPEG2 video can be played on a Core Duo 1.66GHz Mac Mini.
| |
| − | | |
| − | *AC3 SPDIF Passthrough results in static, similar to the standard audio before the endian update. I scanned through for similar code on the digital audio side, but have not yet found it.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == 0.20 svn Status ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | August 31, 2006 -- Most of the above issues were resolved in recent svn updates. Running osx-packager.pl will result in a working build, with no modifications. The only issues that I know of are:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * MMX enhanced colorspace conversion is currently being tested, and will probably be added to the svn version soon. The patch for this can be found on the [http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/dev/220535 dev mailing list].
| |
| − | * The yuv420to2vuy patch is optional after installing the MMX patch. If you turn on "vector enhanced colorspace conversion", it will work fine. Without this, quicktime crashes.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==Useful Links==
| |
| − | * Links on the IR receiver / remote included in the last iMac G5 and all intel based Macs. Basic integration, passing arrow keys, ESC, enter to mythfrontend should be feasible.
