/Library/FrameWorks/GStreamer.framework).
It is recommended you use GStreamer.framework rather than install Gstreamer with Brew or MacPorts (see later).
Next install OpenSSL-1.1.1 and libplist:
MacPorts: "sudo port install openssl liblist-dev "; Brew: "brew install openssl libplist". Since the
static forms of these libraries are used in the MacOs build, the OpenSSL and libplist packages can be uninstalled after building uxplay
(so you could just install MacPorts or Brew before building uxplay, and uninstall it afterwards).
Unfortunately, Fink's openssl package currently doesn't supply the static (libcrypto.a) form of the needed library libcrypto, and it
does not supply a recent libplist.
Next install OpenSSL-1.1.1 and libplist: these can be built from source (see below) but it's easier to get them using
MacPorts "sudo port install openssl liblist-dev "or Brew "brew install openssl libplist". Since the
static forms of the two libraries wiil used, if you dont have MacPorts or Brew installed, you can just install one of these package-managers
before building uxplay, and uninstall it afterwards if you don't want to keep it.
Unfortunately, Fink's openssl11-dev package currently doesn't supply the static (libcrypto.a) form of the needed library libcrypto, and its libplist1
package is too old.
Finally, build and install uxplay (without ZOOMFIX):
"cd UxPlay; mkdir build ; cd build ; cmake .. ; make ; sudo make install ".
.
The MacOs build uses OpenGL, not X11, to create the mirror display window. This has some "quirks":
the window title is "OpenGL renderer" instead of the Airplay server name, but it is visible to
screen-sharing apps (e.g., Zoom). The option -t _timeout_
cannot be used because if the GStreamer pipeline is destroyed while the OpenGL window is still open,
and uxplay is left running, a segfault occurs.
Also, the resolution settings "-s wxh" do not affect
the (small) initial mirror window size, but the window can be expanded using the mouse.
