I don't have a OS X machine to try and debug this with, so anyone else that can help would appreciate it!

I am using a Mac M1 (Air) (MacOS version 11.3.1 (20E241)) with Python 2.7.16 - I have never seen this kind of error. Maybe @nanni61 should specify which version of MacOS and Python is being used - and what could be done to reproduce this message?

I found this when searching for "Symbol not found": https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34386527/symbol-not-found-pycodecinfo-getincrementaldecoder

When you install a new version of python, you may need to run hash -r python to tell bash to reset the "cached" location to the python executable.

Not sure if it might be a solution.

This sw works only from 10.15 onwards. I solved the problem by throwing it in the trash and using something else. And I live happy.

FastFlix will try it's best to support maintained version of operation systems that can run Python 3.11 and Pyside6, currently that is macOS 11 onward https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacOS_version_history#Releases . As it sounds like the issue was an outdated OS closing this issue for now. If this comes up with a newer version please leave details here and I will reopen!
