Thanks @nicolascarrara for the hints, but the cdm path is different for libwidevine.dylib :

$HOME/Library/Application Support/Kodi/cdm

You can download the libwidevinecdm.so with the link in the readme : https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/raw-file/31465a03c03d1eec31cd4dd5d6b803724dcb29cd/toolkit/content/gmp-sources/widevinecdm.json

This provide you the choice of your architecture, I think this is the good link for mac : https://redirector.gvt1.com/edgedl/widevine-cdm/970-mac-x64.zip

Look like it’s the good path 👍
You need to reboot your kodi after installing the .so Can you reboot and send another debug log to check it’s still the same problems ? I’ll try it on my macbook asap
