I can't launch anything later than v4.11.2 (which works GREAT, BTW!) on my OSX 10.10.5 BOTH v4.12.0 and 4.12.1 crash when launching the Qlight controller side of the app.
Fixture editor side will launch but I haven't checked it's functions yet.

attaching the entire crash report to this message but the error seems to be

Dyld Error Message:
Symbol not found: _clock_gettime
Referenced from: /Applications/QLC+.app/Contents/MacOS/../Frameworks/libusb-1.0.0.dylib (which was built for Mac OS X 10.13)
Expected in: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib

Am I the only one having this issue?

I know it's a dirty test, but can you please try to take libusb.dylib from 4.11.2 and replace the one in 4.12.x and see if it works?

I suspect this depends on an update of macports on my Mac

I know this problem. Its because libusb uses the symbol "clock_gettime" if compiled on a OSX >= 10.12. i solved this by recompiling libusb without the call. the file is darvin_usb.c line 67 to 72: https://github.com/libusb/libusb/blob/m ... rwin_usb.c

Hello!

I've the same problem (all of 4.12 versions crash upon starting under OS X 10.11.6 El Captain). So what can I do with this recompiled file. Could I download and copy somewhere the folder structure? Thanks!

OK, the "dirty" version is working! :-) (copy the old libusb-1.0.0.dylib file on the new)

Hi, I have included the working library in the latest test version. Please give it a try.

Hi,

I had the same problem and the test version resolved it for me as well.

Waiting for the release :-)

Thanks for the energy!
