Sharedown not detecting ffmpeg installation on Apple Silicon

[tworstwots]

Guessing this has something to do with how Homebrew installs packages to /opt/homebrew by default on Apple Silicon

i don't have an arm mac to test this, what is the path to the ffmpeg bin? i can add that to sharedown and it should find ffmpeg

Actually it appears that this function in preload.js is throwing an error:

api.hasFFmpeg = () => {
    const proc = require('child_process');

    try {
        proc.execSync('ffmpeg -version').toString();
        return true;

    } catch (e) {}

    return false;
}

The path to ffmpeg is /opt/homebrew/bin/ffmpeg (same for yt-dlp).

do you have the error message? probably because it cannot find ffmpeg

added homebrew path Sharedown.zip

Getting a spinning wheel now:
