MythTV Builds for MacOS

This unofficial repository contains current and legacy builds of MythTV's Mythfrontend for MacOS.

The file structure is organized by MythTV release. Within each release folder there are additional subfolders for the macOS build environment. For example, if v34 was compiled on Ventura it will be stored in v34/macOS 13 Ventura.

Older macOS versions will work on newer macOS versions (i.e. versions built on macOS 12 will work on macOS 12 and up including 14)

Intel versions will work on ARM64 computers (thank you Rosetta 2)

All automatic builds posted are created via GitHub Actions. Since they leverage GitHub runners, when a runner OS version gets retired (upcoming Big Sur), so will the automatic build. Likewise as new OS versions become available, new automatic builds will become available (e.g. Sonoma was recently added).

  • arm64 builds are available for Sonoma ONLY due to the added cost of using an arm64 based runner on Ventura.
  • x86_64 builds are available for all supported x86_64 supported OSes (Big Sur, Monterey, Ventura, Sonoma).

Support

Support for compiling is provided on the mythtv users mailing list or forums. Please do not get offended if you are referred to these forums for help. These forums are monitored by many more helpful/insightful developers than this unofficial SourceForge sight.

Build Status

arm64 and x86_64 builds are automatically refreshed weekely via GitHub CI's (when code changes are detected).

Github Build Status Build Frequency Availability Est. Retirement
11 intel (Big Sur) x86_64 Weekly Now Q2-2024
12 intel (Monterey) x86_64 Weekly Now Q1-2025
13 intel (Ventura) x86_64 Weekly Now Q1-2026
14 intel (Sonoma) arm64, x86_64 Weekly Now Q1-2027

The compile script is available in mythtv's official GitHub packaging repo. This script does build all of the mythtv executables (including mythbackend) but only packages up Mythfrontend. Feeback and updates are appreciated, so please give it a try and help make the build script better.

Build Instructions for v34, and master

Currently both the v334and master/pre-v34 dmg files are being built with the compileMythtvAnsible.zsh script which uses MacPorts for the support libraries. Experimental Homebrew support was recently added.

Build Instructions can be found on the MythTV wiki here.
