Pale Moon 26.2.1 Unofficial -- h.264 support!

Unread post by sugis » 2016-04-21, 07:07

Hot off the presses! This time there's two builds -- one which enables GStreamer (media playback) support. If you want to try it out, you'll have to install a couple of HomeBrew packages first.

Code: Select all

brew install gstreamer gst-libav gst-plugins-{good,bad,base}
PaleMoon 26.2.1 *with* GStreamer: http://universe.sugis.org:8180/jenkins/job/palemoon/117/artifact/obj-x86_64-apple-darwin12.5.0/dist/palemoon-26.2.1.en-US.mac64.dmg

*Without* GStreamer: http://universe.sugis.org:8180/jenkins/job/palemoon/110/artifact/obj-x86_64-apple-darwin12.5.0/dist/palemoon-26.2.1.en-US.mac64.dmg

Let me know how it works!

I just installed PaleMoon 26.2.1 *with* GStreamer including the HomeBrew packages and now the streaming player on cbc.ca works again. Thanks sugis for consistently bringing us Mac users the latest version of Pale Moon in a timely manner.

Running 26.2.1 without GStreamer on mid-2010 MacBook Pro with 10.9.5 - everything seems fine. Thanks Sugis!

Is something wrong with Jenkins? I can't download the latest build and I've tried with multiple browsers now. The download starts, but then about 1/3 of the way through the download just restarts. The download speed also is quite poor (~25 KB/s).

Hi Prizza, unfortunately right now the image is hosted off my home server. So yes, it is not 100% up, and is slow (although 25KB/s is much slower than usual!)

Obviously this needs to change. I'll look into better hosting options. Until then, be patient, and if it is broken try again in a few hours.

The download actually worked quite well for me earlier today, so I'm happy! :clap:
