Hey guys, first of all there is another issue: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/issues/2128 To fix this issue I have to: 1 remove brew /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/uninstall.sh)" // remove

2 install brew again /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)" // install

3 install scrpy using brew brew install scrcpy

4 install android-platform-tools brew install --cask android-platform-tools (I got errors like Error: It seems there is already a Binary at and I need to remove the folder with rm /opt/homebrew/bin/xxx)

After that I was able to work with scrcpy

I installed via brew. The error happens with the latest Mac OS. It now says:

% scrcpy

zsh: abort      scrcpy
