- For ffmpeg-kit, it need to be built to binary first. If you want to save time, you can directly download its pre-built binary, named like
ffmpeg-kit-full-gpl-6.0-macos-xcframework.zip(not LTS version). Unzip it, then execute this in terminal to remove its quarantine attribute:
sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine ./ffmpeg-kit-full-gpl-6.0-macos-xcframework
(Due to the project being discontinued and copyright reasons, the prebuilt binaries have been removed. Here is a backup of original file.)
