MPLAYERX NOT WORKING IN SIERRA PATCH

The patch should be applied now without disabling SIP forever. Once the GUI shows that it has successfully patched, boot back into recovery to re-enable SIP.

Run the iTunes Patch dmg and continue with the patching.

Validate that SIP is disabled by running the following command in terminal: csrutil status It should say disabled.

Restart and log in as you would normally.

Launch terminal once booted into recovery: Utilities menu > Terminal.

The application will patch the Remote Control Daemon to prevent it from starting iTunes whenever you press the play button on the keyboard or an external remote control. This feature can be useful for a lot of users, but it can also be annoying if you are using VLC, Nightingale or other similar programs that support the media keys. This is a patch for removing the default OS X behavior of always starting iTunes when the play button on the keyboard is pressed. If you experience any issues with code signature, try reinstalling Xcode tools ( xcode-select -install) and then patch again. – macOS Sierra note: The patch works in macOS Sierra, but it seems that Xcode Developer Tools might not upgrade properly in some cases.
