Plexconnect+Pillow on apple silicon?

Open pbrena opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Hello,

There seems to be no way to install the Phyton 2 and corresponding Pillow in apple M1 or M2, most guides I found are for Phyton 3 and/or Intel cpus and they fail for me, has anyone succeeded?

One link in the Mac installation guide seems to be invalid: http://wolfpaulus.com/jounal/mac/installing_python_osx/

Did you try from https://www.python.org/downloads/macos/ ?

If you cannot install py2 maybe you can try this https://github.com/dlgoodr/PlexConnect/tree/py3

It's a py3 version of plexconnect, I started to test it years ago but then stopped by lack of time

Thx, I could install Py2 using brew and a users Tap (also Py3), it is Pillow the one not installable for Py2 (it is for Py3) any experiences from M1/2 currently users (and possibly update guides/docs)?. So Plexconnect works albeit without PIL support...
