JDMTool error when accessing the card reader in MacOS

[icordoba]

Hi, I have tried jdmtool in MacOS Ventura 13.6.3 (22G436) Python version 3.11.

App works and I can download my subscription but when I try to get information from the card reader as a previous step to writing (card reader works with original JDM application from Jeppesen) I get:

Hi! Sorry for the slow response. I don't currently have a Mac to test it - but will in a few weeks.

I don't suppose you've found some workaround for this? I see a bug report about HID devices (https://github.com/libusb/libusb/issues/859) that basically says that libusb shouldn't be used for HID devices - but, I don't think a card reader counts as HID. In any case, I'll have a better idea once I can try it myself.

Can't help for this case but only confirm it works on macOS Sonoma 14.4.1

[~/dev/jdmtool/.venv/bin]$ ./jdmtool detect
Found device: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0e39:1250
Firmware version: 20071203
Card inserted:

  Unknown identifier: 0x10000000

this is "silver" card
