M1 Mac support?

[dither-dng]

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt5'`

[JargeZ]

Maybe I can find an M1 MacBook from my friends and I can test it

[kode54]

I got it working by inserting Homebrew's build of pyqt5. Amend the setup instructions like so for M1:

brew install pyqt@5
git clone https://github.com/JargeZ/vhs -C ~/ntscqt
cd ~/ntscqt
python3 -m venv ./venv
cp -R /opt/homebrew/Cellar/pyqt@5/5.15.6/lib/python3.9/site-packages/* ./venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

Amend the above Homebrew path with the correct version number if or when a new version comes out. The pip install will skip right over PyQt5 and PyQt5_sip because the copy command supplies them.

hey, I'm having trouble getting the vhs thing to work on Mac I tried everything but it keeps saying no file or directory does anyone have a different way for Mac?

[JargeZ]

Hi @vhssstudios @kode54 @psustento I tried it on my apple chip and put the working method in the readme, you can check it on your systems and tell me if it's successful or not https://github.com/JargeZ/ntscqt#for-mac-on-m1-apple-silicon-try-this

[vhssstudios]

it was successful! I had to make a new file using terminal, that way it can recognize where the code is from and the file that it needs, because before that it wouldn't do that without a file or directory .

I got an issue where pip would say (at pip install --ignore-installed -r requirements.m1-temp.txt), that I installed pyqt5-sip 12.9.0. When I checked my version of pyqt5-sip, it said it was at 12.11.0. How can I make 12.11.0 be recognized than the 12.9.0? I used the Rosetta version of my terminal.

The error above was resolved, however venv/bin/python ntscQT.py gets an error. I think the command recognized 12.9.0. Traceback:

RuntimeError: the sip module implements API v12.0 to v12.9 but the PyQt5.QtCore module requires API v12.11

I found a solution for my Mac as to running this.

git clone https://github.com/JargeZ/ntscqt -C ntscqt
# skip above if you already downloaded
cd ~/ntscqt
python3 -m venv ./venv
source venv/bin/activate
arch -x86_64 zsh  #add rossetta first to your console
pip install -r requirements.txt
# skip above if you did it already
python ntscQT.py
