Issues building Audiowmark on macOS about audiowmark HOT 10 OPEN

Wow, nice. That worked, yes. Thank you very much, especially for releasing this software in the first place!

I still had to change the zita-resampler CMakeLists.txt a bit for it to install the headers, so heres the full step-by-step that finally worked for me to build on MacOS:

• brew install automake autoconf-archive cmake
• brew install mpg123 fftw libsndfile libgcrypt
• git clone https://github.com/digital-stage/zita-resampler
• cd zita-resampler
• Edit CMakeLists.txt
  • Change add_library(zita-resampler ${SOURCES} ${HEADER_LIST})
  • To add_library(zita-resampler SHARED ${SOURCES} ${HEADER_LIST})
  • Add to end of file: install(FILES ${HEADER_LIST} DESTINATION "include/zita-resampler")
• cmake ./
• make install
• cd ..
• git clone https://github.com/swesterfeld/audiowmark
• cd audiowmark
• ./autogen.sh
• make
• Find executable in src/audiowmark
• Alternatively do make install

Thanks again!

./configure: line 17470: syntax error near unexpected token `ext'
./configure: line 17470: `AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_14(ext)'

This looks like the problem could be fixed by installing the autoconf-archive package (brew install autoconf-archive).

from audiowmark.

You'll need at least automake installed (e.g. brew install automake) however not all of the required libraries (like zita-resampler) are available through homebrew so you'll probably have to build some of them as well.

Then it's probably just a matter of running autogen.sh and then running automake..

Edit: You can build and run on mac using docker desktop though, thats what I did for now..

This is how I try to build on MacOS using homebrew:

• brew install mpg123 fftw libsndfile libgcrypt
• git clone https://github.com/digital-stage/zita-resampler
• cd zita-resampler
• Edit CMakeLists.txt
  • Change add_library(zita-resampler ${SOURCES} ${HEADER_LIST})
  • To add_library(zita-resampler SHARED ${SOURCES} ${HEADER_LIST})
• cmake ./
• make install
• cd ..
• git clone https://github.com/swesterfeld/audiowmark
• cd audiowmark
• ./autogen.sh

However while theres no more "library missing" errors I still end up with an error in the configure script when running autogen.sh:

./configure: line 17470: syntax error near unexpected token `ext'
./configure: line 17470: `AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_14(ext)'

Thanks for this tool! And thanks normen for following up and writing your steps out to get going on macOS. audiowmark is working perfectly for me after following your instructions. Have you by chance gotten videowmark going on macOS? Whenever I run it, I get videowmark: error parsing command line arguments (use videowmark -h) . That also happens when running videowmark -h. Thoughts or suggestions?

Hello sir:
I have the same problem.
./configure: line 16605: syntax error near unexpected token ext' ./configure: line 16605: AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_14(ext)'
AND
i exec: sudo apt-get install autoconf-archive,then, ./antogen.sh . I still have this problem

my env: ubuntu 16.04 gcc:5.0.4

Any other suggestions?

thanks.

I think the error message

videowmark: error parsing command line arguments (use videowmark -h)

on macOS is since I developed and tested the script on linux where we have a version of getopt that is called GNU getopt which can handle long options as --strength 10. In the script this is this line:

The following discussion has relevant information:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/402377/using-getopts-to-process-long-and-short-command-line-options/7948533

but basically there are two possibilities of fixing this: install GNU getopt or modify the script to use different option handling.

This is kind-of old. Not sure if this has all dependencies for building audiowmark, you'll have to try.

./configure: line 16605: syntax error near unexpected token `ext' ./configure: line 16605: `AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_14(ext)'

It looks like your autoconf-archive is too old. Try building a stable audiowmark release, then you won't need to use autogen.sh.

Stable releases are available from https://uplex.de/audiowmark/. Then use the configure script instead of autogen.sh.

Thanks to @swesterfeld and @normen for providing the info.
Note that before running ./autogen.sh I had to run brew install lib tool and brew install png-config but otherwise it all worked a treat. To be honest, I had forgotten about this issue so getting notification about it was most welcome 😉

I should point out that since I wrote the initial message, I have moved to a new Mac Mini M1 and am now running macOS 12.01 Monterey, but everything worked just fine.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction @swesterfeld! gnu-getopt is included in macOS, but for some reason isn't symlinked by default...so after symlinking it gets past that step. I've progressed on to another error, relating to the temp file location directories /dev/fd/*, but again, that's probably a macos specific issue, and I can likely figure that one out. If I get everything working, I'll post back. In the meantime if anyone is looking for a workaround for videowmark on macOS, I have been manually stripping the audio with FFMPEG and passing it to audiowmark, and then passing that audio back to FFMPEG to mux or transcode it back into the video. Videowmark does the same thing (Line 87-96 of audiowmark/src/videowmark is the relevant FFMPEG settings for reference), but right now I'm scripting all that and it's working great.
