Your mpv is compiled without lua support.

[wiiaboo]

Yes. Lua 5.1, 5.2 or luajit.
And recompile mpv.

[JulianLai]

@wiiaboo how about lua5.3.4-1?

By the way, It is working with luajit now, thanks.

[wiiaboo]

No support yet.

[ghost]

The thing with Lua 5.3 is that it's a different language from 5.1 or 5.2, so it won't be supported to avoid breaking all scripts. (5.1 and 5.2 are also different, but the differences are relatively minor.)

[ghost]

https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/wiki/FAQ#Why_does_mpv_not_support_Lua_53

[gbstan]

Ok. I see on brew that [email protected] and luajit are both available. Which one is better to install? [email protected] or luajit? I didn't need to do this before, so any help here would be useful for me.

Once I have installed lua with brew, e.g. with brew install luajit

Should I just install mpv this way then?: brew install --with-lua --with-bundle mpv

[wiiaboo]

luajit is a bit faster, might be useful for heavy scripts like the OSC.

[Argon-]

Afaik mpv (or at least the brew formula) does not support luajit on OSX.
@gbstan please ask brew people about how to use brew and formula details. mpv people have no relation to this formula whatsoever. package manager != the software it builds.
