OmniLume Reel 0.3.0 is distributed as desktop installers for macOS, Windows, and Linux. Download the installer that matches your operating system and CPU architecture from the product website.
Supported Install Targets
| Platform | Supported versions | Recommended package |
|---|---|---|
| Windows | Windows 10 or later, x64 | Windows installer |
| macOS | macOS 12.0 or later, Apple Silicon or Intel | DMG |
| Linux DEB | Debian 12+, Ubuntu 22.04+, and compatible APT desktop distributions that provide WebKitGTK 4.1 and LibSoup 3 | APT repository or direct DEB |
| Linux RPM | Fedora desktop releases whose repositories provide WebKitGTK 4.1, LibSoup 3, system FFmpeg, and libmpv.so.2 | DNF repository or direct RPM |
| Linux AppImage | x86_64 or arm64 desktop systems where the native package path is not dependency-validated | AppImage .tar.gz archive |
RHEL, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, and CentOS Stream 9 are not recommended for the RPM path in 0.3.0 because their default repositories may not provide the libwebkit2gtk-4.1.so.0, libjavascriptcoregtk-4.1.so.0, and libsoup-3.0.so.0 ABI required by the desktop WebView. Use the AppImage archive on those systems unless you have validated the dependency set yourself.
Linux Package Choices
Use DEB when you are on Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint, UOS, or another APT-based desktop distribution with the required WebKitGTK 4.1 and LibSoup 3 packages.
sudo install -d -m 0755 /etc/apt/keyrings
curl -fsSL https://releases.omnilume.app/apt/omnilume-reel-archive-key.asc | sudo tee /etc/apt/keyrings/omnilume-reel-archive-key.asc >/dev/null
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/omnilume-reel-archive-key.asc] https://releases.omnilume.app/apt stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/omnilume-reel.list >/dev/null
sudo apt update
sudo apt install omni-lume-reel
Use RPM only on Fedora desktop systems that can resolve the WebKitGTK 4.1, LibSoup 3, FFmpeg, and libmpv dependencies from enabled repositories.
sudo install -d -m 0755 /etc/pki/rpm-gpg
sudo curl -fsSL -o /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-omnilume-reel https://releases.omnilume.app/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY-omnilume-reel
sudo rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-omnilume-reel
sudo curl -fsSL -o /etc/yum.repos.d/omnilume-reel.repo https://releases.omnilume.app/rpm/omnilume-reel.repo
sudo dnf -y makecache
sudo dnf install omni-lume-reel
Use AppImage when you need a portable package or when your distribution does not satisfy the native package dependencies.
tar -xzf OmniLume-Reel_0.3.0_x86_64.AppImage.tar.gz
bash install-linux-appimage-desktop-entry.sh OmniLume-Reel_0.3.0_x86_64.AppImage
For arm64, use the matching OmniLume-Reel_0.3.0_aarch64.AppImage.tar.gz archive and AppImage filename.
