Additional FFmpeg installation step for macOS Catalina #85

Closed artisteacher closed 4 years ago

artisteacher commented 5 years ago

A new step for the FFmpeg installation needs to added for macOS Catalina (10.15)

Insert the path to your FFmpeg folder that you created earlier, if you have used the recommended path, this will be /Applications/OpenToonz/FFmpeg:

For macOS 10.15 and later, each executable within the FFmpeg folder needs to be opened once before using OpenToonz (this only needs to be done one time, due to new security features). In Finder, right-click and select "Open With -> Terminal". Once the Terminal windows have launched successfully, Terminal can be closed.

Restart OpenToonz.

On a related note, as of macOS 10.15, opening the OpenToonz installer also requires right-clicking on the installer in Finder to open. The first time a new OpenToonz installation is run, it must be opened by right-clicking on the app in Finder.

Right-clicking on an app/executable in Finder overrides Gatekeeper security which blocks non-apple developer apps by default.
