Sugis, if you still need hosting for these binaries on something else but a home server, let me know and I can set something up for you.

Thanks, it'd be great if you could add the 'without' version (I don't really know what to install, I got the "gstreamer-1.0-1.8.1-x86_64-packages.dmg" which contains several packages).

Installed the gstreamer version, and also installed the gstreamer dependencies in homebrew using the command posted above. The CBC's live streaming player didn't seem to work, but it's not something I use anyway. Otherwise, everything works wonderfully. Thanks again for all of your hard work!

First of all, thank you sugis for making these builds. Version 26.2.1 *Without* runs nicely even on Snow Leopard. Now Version 26.2.2 *Without* doesn’t launch unfortunately. Following messages from Console.app:

Huh, that's disappointing. I just reinstalled from the link above and it works fine here.

Could someone who has it crash or hang check console output, see if anything is printed?
Just open the Terminal and launch the application directly, e.g:

Code: Select all

/Applications/NewMoon.app/Contents/MacOS/palemoon

Tried 26.2.2 without gstreamer again, got this in Terminal:

Phil-MacBook-Pro-2:~ phil$ /Applications/NewMoon.app/Contents/MacOS/palemoon
XPCOMGlueLoad error 4:0 for file /Applications/NewMoon.app/Contents/MacOS/XUL:

Back to 26.2.1 and everything works. Hope this helps...

just like the download i was on before, the dmg downloads but it doesnt open. im not asking for favors or anything but the only mass pic downloader that works at all is only a palemoon extension now, its worked with firefox for years but they changed something. the forum where the extension is made was very clear it will only work on palemoon now. i download thousands of pics every day, for my own purposes and i run a celeb pic forum. i need palemoon, now, someone please figure out why it wont open on my computer. it has nothing to do with admin, it simply wont open

Installed the Homebrew packages properly, reinstalled 26.2.2 (Gstreamer version this time) and now it works fine.

Hi!

First of all thumbs up for the good work! I really enjoy Pale Moon on my Windows laptop and now I am trying to get it working on our iMac running OSX 10.11.5.

I ran ran the brew command referred to above and then installed the application. When trying to run palemoon I get the following error message:

XPCOMGlueLoad error 4:0 for file /Applications/NewMoon.app/Contents/MacOS/./XUL:
Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/gst-plugins-base/lib/libgstapp-1.0.0.dylib
Referenced from: /Applications/NewMoon.app/Contents/MacOS/./XUL
Reason: Incompatible library version: XUL requires version 801.0.0 or later, but libgstapp-1.0.0.dylib provides version 603.0.0
Couldn't load XPCOM.

Any ideas (at least I haven't found an answer/solution up until now)?

Kind regards,

Andreas

Is there a way to manually update gstreamer on OS X because that is the problem.. We need a newer version.

I have update my copy of Pale Moon for OS X with Gstreamer to 26.2.2. I have been using it for several weeks now and I have noticed no problems at all. I am running OS X 10.9.5 on a mid 2009 MacBook Pro. And since the introduction of the Gstreamer version I am happy to say I have not needed to use Safari. Keep up the good work.

If an update of gstreamer is all it takes then I will start here

http://macappstore.org/gstreamer/

and here

https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/pkg/osx/1.8.1/

and see if I am able to sort it out.

Thank's for the reply.

Kind regards,

Andreas
