OpenRV macOS Build Requirements

Current Status

✅ Qt 6.6.3 detected at /Users/tonylyons/Qt/6.6.3/macos ✅ QtWebEngine confirmed present ❌ Qt6Multimedia missing - Required for audio functionality

Required Qt Components

OpenRV requires the following Qt 6.6.3 components:

  1. ✅ Qt WebEngine - Already installed
  2. ❌ Qt Multimedia - MISSING - Required for audio playback

Fix: Install Qt Multimedia

Install via Qt Maintenance Tool:

open ~/Qt/MaintenanceTool

Then:

  1. Click "Add or remove components"
  2. Select your Qt 6.6.3 installation
  3. Expand "Qt 6.6.3" → "Additional Libraries"
  4. Check "Qt Multimedia" component
  5. Click "Next" and complete the installation

Verify installation:

ls -d /Users/tonylyons/Qt/6.6.3/macos/lib/cmake/Qt6Multimedia

Should show the directory exists.

Build Commands (After Installing Qt Multimedia)

cd /Users/tonylyons/Dropbox/Public/GitHub/OpenRV
export RV_VFX_PLATFORM=CY2024
export QT_HOME=/Users/tonylyons/Qt/6.6.3/macos
source rvcmds.sh
rvbootstrap

Verification

To verify Qt detection is working (not using Homebrew Qt):

  • Check that QT_HOME points to /Users/tonylyons/Qt/6.6.3/macos
  • CMake should find Qt components from that location, not /opt/homebrew/lib/cmake/Qt6
