cannot enable macvk

In theory, this could work --vo=gpu --gpu-context=macvk . But currently it just throws an error message.

[vo/gpu] Failed initializing any suitable GPU context!
Error opening/initializing the VO window.

Did it miss any dependency?

I'm looking into it now... lol

Seems to work with shaderc.

[hooke007]

Emm... uninstall mpv libplacebo ffmpeg and then reinstalled them.
Not work here.

I also installed molten-vk from homebrew and vulkan-sdk from https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home

@deus0ww I found a patch from one of mpv dev's branch. It allows native hwdec on apple silicon.
rcombs/mpv@fd1f9a2

I can't test today but, for clarity, are you talking about hwdec=vulkan or hwdec=videotoolbox?

[hooke007]

hwdec=videotoolbox

[deus0ww]

Nice... When I tested yesterday, only videotoolbox-copy worked. I hope rcomb gets that merged soon.

[deus0ww]

@hooke007 I added m154k1's patches to the mpv formula. hwdec should work...

[hooke007]

I hope rcomb gets that merged soon.

It's coming. mpv-player/mpv#12776

[hooke007]

patch 3 seems to be unnecessary.
