NextPVR on M1 Mac?

[timbo3344]

oops sorry!  I tried ARM64

The package was for x64 only

  "runtimeTarget": {
    "name": ".NETCoreApp,Version=v6.0/osx-x64",
    "signature": ""
  },


maybe try x64 instead until sub has a look.

Yeah I was uninstalling and reinstalling multiple different versions of all kinds and couldn't get it to work.  I'll just wait until sub has a look.

I installed on my x64 Mackintosh and it does work but the dylib files (libHarfBuzzSharp.dylib, libSkiaSharp.dylib and libe_sqlite3.dylib) needed to be manually unblocked via Finder as they are marked unsigned. Clearly not a lot of macOS users.

Martin is correct. The build was incorrect marked as 'osx-x64' rather than a more generic build that could work with the .net runtime on both osx-x64 and osx-arm64. For the next build I've corrected that.

The issue does remain that you need to manually unblock those files for it to run. I've been looking for a work around, but there doesn't seem to be a straight forward solution.

I didn't see anything say they were blocked, how do I unblock those?  Were you able to get it running on an M1?

Yes, I was able to get it running on an M1.

For now, try https://nextpvr.com/prerelease/mac/NPVR.zip

For unblocking, after running it, and initially getting an error, I went into System Preferences -> Security & Privacy, and on the General tab, there was a warning about e-sqlite3, and I had to click 'allow'. I then restarted it, and it ran.

Your the best!  That version worked for me!  I never got the popup in system prefs with the other version, but this version asked me to allow and I'm back!  Thanks so much!

In case you didn't notice, there has been a 6.1.0 release since that post. It should now work for you without needing to use that special pre-release version.
