Problems on Apple Silicon - Kup - 17.12.2025

Hello. I am trying to launch Hybrid on Mac mini m4. For some reason it works unstable. I faced different errors. Here are some of them:
  • Set absolute path crashed
  • File temp/..... was not created
I found out the program works better if I run
xattr -rc [directory I am working in]
before processing the video. Thus the problem may be caused by security system of OS X. Have anyone faced the same problems? How can I fix hem permanently?


RE: Problems on Apple Silicon - Selur - 17.12.2025

1. no debug output => no clue what you are doing
2. yes, it's probably related to macOSs security features
wild guess: make sure that the temp path isn't in some virtual folder


RE: Problems on Apple Silicon - Kup - 18.12.2025

Sorry, here is log and screen recording of my actions. Unfortunately, Hybrid doesn't create any debug log and I can show only regular one.

As you can see the app itself, temp directory, in and out file are in ~/Downloads directory


RE: Problems on Apple Silicon - Selur - 18.12.2025

a. Normally [code[xattr -rc „Path to Hybrid.app“ [/code] ans allowing Hybrid access to the folders when macOS asks for it, should be enough.
b. It's strange that 'system_profiler SPDisplaysDataType' does not come back in time. (you did apply 1., right?)
c. Does '/User/andrew/Downloads/debug/temp' exist ? (if not debug output will be disabled, on startup since the temp path doesn't exist; Assuming the creation of the debug output is enabled.)
d. Does '/User/andrew/Downloads/temp' exist ? (if not debug output will be disabled, on loading the source since the temp path doesn't exist; Assuming the creation of the debug output is enabled.)

a. I have tried both
xattr -rc ~/Downloads/Hybrid.app
and 
xattr -rc ~/Downloads/
but none of the helped. I have also given Hybrid.app full access to the the drive via system settings

b. You mean a.? Yes, it did't help. 
Quote:(you did apply 1., right?)

c. d. Thank you! I managed to get debug log. Added it to the google drive folder

P.S. Seems something is wrong with mencoder and ignore list

2025.12.18 - 12:56:03_macOS Tahoe (26.2) (64bit)_2025.12.06.1 - level 9:  -> absolute path for tool is:
2025.12.18 - 12:56:03_macOS Tahoe (26.2) (64bit)_2025.12.06.1 - level 9: -> 2025-12-18@12_55_58_7110_02_video crashed: set absolute paths crashed,...
Path to mencoder is empty, so adjusting the path to an absolute path crashes.
Prefering FFMpeg as decoder ('Config->Input->Decoding->Prefer FFmpeg') might help.

Oh! Now it works. I managed to covert video to h.264. 

Now I am trying to deinterlace same video with QTGMC and convert it to FFV1. I get another error I have told before
/Users/andrew/Downloads/temp/[something] was not created!
Could you watch a new log? May be you can help?


RE: Problems on Apple Silicon - Selur - 18.12.2025

Does the Vapoursynth Preview work?
What does the DebugOutput show?


RE: Problems on Apple Silicon - Kup - 18.12.2025

Preview doesn't work. I added paths you have suggested here
https://forum.selur.net/thread-3937-page-6.html
but it didn't solve the problem completely.

I added debug output to google drive folder

Normally, following the steps from the README.md should be enough,...
