How to include a third party binary in Xcode? - objective-c

Question

I am learning code here - a video player on Mac OS X depends on MPlayerX:
https://bitbucket.org/Tomasen/splayerx/src/
Have something confused with binary including in Xcode:
https://bitbucket.org/Tomasen/splayerx/src/a97f03511dfc/binaries/x86_64
there is a binary called mplayer-mt(not .a file, it's exectuable)
How is the binary used in Xcode? How to import it or how to config?
Here is my build fail info:

ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Answer 1

Your linker has failed, and linkers do not have anything to do with files that are directly executable outside of XCode. At least as far as I know.
Instead have you tried to include the .dylib files from your library in your xcode build? Download them locally and then use the "Link Binary With Libraries" section of the "Build Phases" tab to add them to your current project, using the plus button.
If you haven't done this before, you have to click on your target in the left hand window to find either these items.

Answer 2

Found that the author of SPlayerX start the binary with arguments but not embed.
