HOME » Build » OSX

Since the OSX build is essentially the same as the Linux build, this doc will be succinct. Please refer to the Linux build guide for further details.

Same as Linux:

git clone https://github.com/gpac/gpac gpac_public
cd gpac_public
./configure --static-mp4box
make
sudo make install
