Closed totic closed 13 years ago

totic commented 13 years ago

Hi,

I just downloaded MacShairport in my old mac and I get the following message:

"You can't open the application MacShairport because it is not supported on this type of Mac."

The specs of the old machine are below:

Let me know if you need any more info.

Thanks!

That's correct. MacShairport requires a 64-bit computer.

totic commented 13 years ago

Just out of crazy curiosity why would it need to be a 64-bit computer??? Is there some binary that hasn't been compile for 32 bit that we need?

joshaber commented 13 years ago

Actually, it's for exactly the same reasons it doesn't work on PPC. See #4.

joshaber commented 13 years ago

(Which is to say, mostly out of my own laziness. I'd be happy to merge any pull requests that bring in PPC/32-bit support.)

I guess I can always have my old machine stream to the new one. Anyways great project! Thanks

fwiw, I did get MacShairport to compile for a 32-bit arch (https://github.com/joshaber/MacShairport/issues/4#issuecomment-1135390), but libao was a problem. If we just used the system-installed version of libao (presumably it would be correct for the host system) do you think it would work?

joshaber commented 13 years ago

I dunno... libao is just a problem all the way around :\
