Well, i guess its gonna be more complex than i have though.... there is no reason at all why it shouldn't be working... hmm
I will have to check this code and compiler settings with more patience...
Btw, can you provide logs ?, you can use Console.app (its inside "utilities" in your applications folder), select "All Messages" from the list at the left and then type "MediaInfo" (no quotes) in the search box, any interesting log line about the crash / reason why it is refusing to run would be helpful.
Thanks.

Reply to myself... after reading some developer docs at apple.com i think the problem comes down to teh way im linking some of the library in order to reduce the final app size... i think im going to re-check my statically linked libs.. lets see what happens

On my G4 Tiger I don't find anything in the Console, but running the unix executable, the Terminal open itself and I obtain that:

This has been useful, TIger is trying to run some of the libraries in 64bit, but there is not 64bit PPC code

/me goes to check why this could be happening
By the way, I forgot to ask this before... but is it OK to write in english on these boards ??
We could use other boards if the english language is an issue, i dont want to piss off any italian visitor.

If the moderators think that we are off topic (both for content -troubleshooting- and language) they will split the topic and move the second part somewhere else... Or they will ask us to continue through private messages or emails. Wait and see..
I must tell you that Riker runs Tiger on an Intel mac, I think. I don't remember which Mac Lester has..

Ok, one more test for Tiger testers:
http://mediainfo.massanti.com/releases/ ... 3.dmg.temp
Again, remove the .temp part from the file name and mount the image as usual.
Diego.

Same error message when double clicking on the application icon, but from the Unix executable, I obtained this message in Terminal and then the Mediainfo window opened! And the app works (tried with a mov and a flv file)

Wow Padmé, thanks a lot for your time with this
Well we are closer to full Tiger support then, actually, seems like binary speaking, the application is fully compliant, so i guess this is just another case of the "WTF Apple?" karma.
I will take a better look at the info.plist settings and report back
Thanks again!
