This strategy works for both Intel and ARM based macs provided a compatible version of FFmpeg is installed. Note this is for power users only and is not typically required or encouraged. To install an Intel-compatible version of brew, paste the instructions at brew.sh to install in place of, then run the following commands: arch -x86_64 Īrch -x86_64 /usr/local/bin/brew install an existing FFmpeg installation The installation instructions on brew.sh for ARM computers installs software that won't work with WL 12.2.0 by default. Then run the following to install FFmpeg: brew install Apple Silicon mac computers: To install FFmpeg via brew, follow the installation instructions at brew.sh. Installations of FFmpeg from Homebrew ( brew.sh) and MacPorts ( are supported. Installing from a Package Manager For Intel mac computers: Future versions of Wolfram Language will use the M1 chip natively and thus may require slightly different instructions. Thus, it is necessary to install an Intel-based version of FFmpeg to use with Wolfram Language. Out= 37, "Matroska" -> 55, "MP4" -> 13, "Ogg" -> 1, "QuickTime" -> 23, "VideoFormat" -> 83|>īefore proceeding, ensure the latest version of FFmpegTools is installed by evaluating the following: PacletInstallĬurrent versions of WL run using the Rosetta 2 technology on M1 Macs. Install FFmpeg to get more complete codec support. In:= Length $VideoDecodersĭuring evaluation of In:= General::sysffmpeg: Using a limited version of FFmpeg. At the end of this post we will compare the list with the supported decoders after FFmpeg is installed. Here is the list of supported video decoders available before having FFmpeg installed. Without FFmpeg installed, the first time a video function is called a message is displayed, suggesting to install FFmpeg for more complete codec support. The Codec Support section in that tutorial describes the limitations of the FFmpeg shipped with the language and shows how installing the full version of FFmpeg gets you a better support for audio and video codecs. Details and examples showing how to import and export video files can be found in the Importing & Exporting Video tutorial. To read from and write to video files, video functionality uses media libraries provided by operating systems as well as a limited version of FFmpeg that is shipped with the language and can be immediately used. Video object and video processing functions were introduced in Wolfram Language 12.1. Let's begin with a recap of why this is important. Here I explain some details on how this can be done on MacOS. Chien-Yu expanded on this in another community post to give detailed instructions for installing FFmpeg on Linux. In an earlier community post, Piotr explained how installing FFmpeg can improve codec support in the Wolfram Language and how to do it on Windows. For installing FFmpeg on Linux see this post,
