Has anybody been able to compile emptool for Mac OS X or FreeBSD? With Jempeg currently not v2 compatible I am trying to find a way to sync. Emptool will run under FreeBSD's linux emulation, but it will not connect to the player for some reason.

Thanks,
-Mike

I did compile it for freebsd a long time ago. as i recall the changes were relatively minor.
since I don't have freebsd any more, I can't do it again, but if you like I will try to dig up my old source (which will be 1.0x) so you can mine it for ideas to patch 2.x

Yeah, I would appreciate that. It would be a good starting point at least. If you find it can you email it to me or post it somewhere where I can grab it?

JEmpeg is secretly 2.0 compatible :) It's just not released yet... I suppose now that the 2.0 beta is out, I can start putting out 2.0 JEmpeg releases -- I need to check with the Empeg folks.

Hey Mike, can we get an update on when Jempeg v2 will be out? I have a couple of gigs of music waiting impatiently to move to my empeg.

I need to talk to Daniel ... Unfortunately, I took my car in for some warranty repairs and forgot to pull my Empeg, so I'm without right now. That means I can't test until I get my car back sometime next week. If Daniel gets a chance to test some of the common cases (i.e. does sync still work :) ), then maybe we can put a prerelease out. We both want to start getting releases out as soon as it fundamentally works. I'll email him and respond in a bit...

Mike
