Error when building Remotion project on Mac Air M1

[微笑]

I encountered the following error while using Remotion on my Mac Air M1:

Steps to reproduce:

1. Run the command: pnpm create video
2. Choose the template: Hello World
3. Run the command: pnpm build

Error message:

Remotion version: 4.0.157
Operating system: Mac Air M1 14.4.1

Thanks for reporting!
Your DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH might be messed up, but Remotion can handle it better too.

There is still this error when using the new version(4.0.159) of Remotion.

Hmm that's super weird, I need to diagnose why it happens on your system

Can you post the output of echo $PATH and echo $DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH?

The output results of these commands are as follows.

echo $PATH

Giving it another try!
