Thanks. I see that brew has removed the installer for libav since it's not supported upstream. bmdtools requires libav but also the repository seems inactive for the last 5 years. I'm tempted to resolve this issue by ending support for the bmdtools installer as I think managing these issues without upstream maintain will only become significantly more challenging. @privatezero, thoughts on this?

[privatezero]

@dericed I'd agree - not much we can realistically do to support install in the future if everything upstream is what is actually causing the issues

ok, let's consider dropping support after the next vrecord release and when https://github.com/amiaopensource/vrecord/pull/770 is resolved.

Sounds good - relatedly I had time today to put a few more comments/clarifications for requested changes in https://github.com/amiaopensource/vrecord/pull/770
