mpv formula is missing molten-vk as a dependency about homebrew-core

[carlocab]

So, to be sure: this doesn't apply to installs of the stable version? Does this mean molten-vk will be required in a future release of MPV?

[rgaufman]

It applies to any natively running mpv, the "stable" cask version unfortunately isn't running natively but through rosetta.

[carlocab]

To be clear, I wasn't referring to the cask. So this is needed when you do

brew install --formula mpv

too? (Note: without --HEAD)

Is it only required on Apple Silicon? Or is it needed on Intel macOS too?

[rgaufman]

Ah, sorry, yes with mpv -v filename it throws the same errors: VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER because molten-vk is missing.

[carlocab]

Ok, thanks. You mentioned the problem not appearing when running in Rosetta. Does that mean this dependency is not required on Intel macOS?

[rgaufman]

I checked with an mpv developer and he said molten-vk is recommended for any mpv user with a modern MacOS, regardless of architecture.
