OK so the issue here is possibly the rudix binary is different depending on which version it is. The snow leapard one is definately i386 as this works for me, perhaps the other one is x86_64 only. I will look at how to best support. If only they were universal for intel then all I would need to do is use a universal binary for squeezelite. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Triode's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97766
