Makemkv for Fedora 33

Post by dagunny »

Are there instructions for making this under Fedora 33? Fedora 32 works fine but the libraries are different and negativo17 doesn't have any rpm's available yet for FC33. Having problems with FC32 because Makemkv and Handbrake use one version of QT5 (5.14) but have to downgrade QT5 (5.13) to get a Linux version of PlexMediaPlayer to work (which blows away Makemkv, Handbrake, and VLC). PMP, VLC, and Handbrake work with FC33 (QT 5.15) but now need a way to get Makemkv to work. Thanks for any suggestions.

I was able to build and run it on Fedora 33.

I installed required packages via the following, but you'll need to have the RPM Fusion repository installed first, and I might have already installed other required packages - I mean you might need to install other packages:

Code: Select all

dnf install desktop-file-utils gcc-c++ zlib-devel openssl-devel expat-devel ffmpeg ffmpeg-devel qt5-qtbase-devel ffmpeg-libs
And then followed the steps here:

I haven't fully tested everything - I have one bluray disc that I can't rip / backup.

But vlc integration worked, and makemkv started up and ran.
