I figured out my problem, I just read all 71 pages of the other thread and my mouse wasn't working because I had windowsblinds loaded. After I unloaded it it worked fine.

Perhaps you should add this small peice of info to the guide?

p.s. excellent guide (Y)

Tells me that theres no SDL.dll... where do I find that?

here ..

you prolly will need openvpn too for network support .. get it from here ..

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/openvpn...ll.exe?download

when you are installing openvpn .. only keep TAP-Win32 Virtual Ethernet Adapter and remove everything else from the list.

You don't need to totally disable windoblinds just add it to per application setting and choose the box not to skin it.

I followed the instructions and successfully got it opening up but once it shows the Mac logo in the middle it says. "JITC Warning, program exception: 00080000 00000000"

Can anyone help me out? :( I'm using OSX 10.3, and in the guide, it says it works for 10.3 as well.

Searched the forum about the error, found some solutions but didn't seem to help.

I have it working fine, I had to use the 6Gb partition though because I couldn't get the fonts and languages unticked like Elite_graphix.

It runs reasonably smooth, it's slightly jerky but still usable.

Later on this week I am going to find some time to try and get the networking working and see if I can surf the net with it.

    • AV2, successor to popular YouTube, Netflix, Amazon codec AV1, has a hard battle ahead

      By Nas · Posted

      Absolutely NOBODY has suggested such a conclusion. I am affirming the sober reality check that AV2's overall market adoption will take longer than AV1's adoption rate -- which, by the way, is the whole point of the article! While PCI-SIG is productive (on paper), other WGs have created all sorts of confusing progress plans that consumers have tuned-out of their improvements... HTML/W3C, USB, HDMI, BT, WIFI (ieee802.11) as a few other groups where spec naming conventions, split progress paths, overlapping ambitions... I'm not critiquing the AV specs group; I'm simply affirming that adoption for AV2 faces headwinds beyond the macroeconomics of it all.

      No thanks! WebView trash is unacceptable. I only use software that's native.
