Useful Commands

mdinfo 

Mac equivalent to locate (since it seems locatedb isn't periodically updated for OS X)

Installing from the command line

Compiling mythtv

At the time of writing the current (14660) revision of mythtv does not build for Mac OS X. One working build is 14225. To build this:

NB. Ensure you don't have xmms or xmms-shlibs installed via fink/apt-get

• svn co -r 14225 http://svn.mythtv.org/svn/trunk/mythtv/contrib/OSX mythtv-14225
• cd mythtv-14225
• ./osx-packager.pl -svnrev 14225

Alternatively, to fix the latest version for an Intel Mac:

• svn co http://svn.mythtv.org/svn/trunk/mythtv/contrib/OSX mythtv
• cd mythtv
• Add "'--arch=pentium4'," to the mythtv args list around line 488 of osx-packager.pl
• ./osx-packager.pl
• You'll get an "ERROR: CPU specific ./configure options failed compile test" warning when osx-packager runs configure for mythtv, but this can be ignored
