Self-Contained builds are published on the releases page: MacOS (Intel & Arm)
Caution
Due to developers not physically owning a range of Apple x86 and Arm systems, this is entirely tested by community members, and virtual environments, binaries may be broken, but we will try to maintain manual building until this situation changes.
We have support for Apple Silicone (ARM) and Apple Intel (x86) systems.
Open a terminal after moving the apps to your applications directory.
Run decode.app with vhs, ld, cvbs, hifi at the start i.g decode.app vhs calls the decoder you desire, commands are universal.
Run tbc-tools.app opening it will call ld-analyse, otherwise manually call tools via tbc-tools.app ld-chroma-decoder.
Builds for MacOS (Arm) can be found here.
MacOS x86 & Arm is supported.
Warning
Only MacOS 11 "Big Sur" and newer is supported with native building and self-contained binaries.
Note
Brew is required to pull down the correct packages.
Tip
If your having installation problems or want automated installation assistance, use Agent mode with Warp terminal, If it manages to solve an installation issue please make an issue ticket, and post your entire start to finish process dialogue on the terminal so documentation can be updated.
Install Brew:
Open a Terminal and paste:
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
Install Dependencies:
brew install cmake pkg-config qt qwt ffmpeg fftw python pipx rust
Download vhs-decode repository
git clone https://github.com/oyvindln/vhs-decode.git vhs-decode
cd vhs-decode
Once cloned from git, run this to install the python part:
pipx ensurepath
pipx install . --python python3.12
Install TBC-Video-Export
pipx install tbc-video-export
(There is also self contained builds if install issues arise)
Then build ld-tools suite:
cmake -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DUSE_QT_VERSION=6 -DBUILD_PYTHON=false
cmake --build build -j8
cmake --install build
This should install the binaries in your bin folder, otherwise you can run them from the vhs-decode folder.
