Need OS X (PPC) testers!

[rryan]

Hi all,

With 1.10 we may be releasing OS X universal binaries again!

If anybody has a PowerPC version of OS X, please test out this binary and post here if it worked or not:

http://builds.mixxx.org/builds/release- ... universal/

Unfortunately this is a 10.5 universal binary, not 10.4 universal. The reason is that Mixxx now depends on APIs only available in 10.5.

Best regards,
RJ

I am attempting to use the released 1.10.0 universal binary on an PPC running OS X 10.5.8 and am having issues with MP3 playback as noted in this thread here:

I've got a powermac, but running on 10.4, sadly.

So it means that I cannot try to compile mixxx 1.10 for my machine ?

thanks

Hi kdjdem

You can compile it yourself, we just don't provide builds of it since we can't provide M4A support on 10.4.

Ok,

I'll try to do it as soon as possible. Sounds a bit tricky for my knowledge, but I'll see. If I achieved something (or fail ) I'll come back here to find some help.

I'm currently polishing my hardware and software setup, so I should come back soon.

Hello Mixxxers,

Is M4A the only feature that stops a 10.4 PPC build?

How much of the latest version would 'survive' being compiled as a uni for the 10.4 PPC machine, otherwise which is the most complete version of MIXXX that is available.

I am running a G4 MDD Dual 1.25 2GB and 10.4.11 , useable for testing!

Thanks
