I've built the frontend from a recent (about a week old) 0.20 svn, on a
dual Intel Mac Mini. It basically works, but I've run into a variety of
issues, I would appreciate feedback on.
1) Scaling doesn't work, despite the fact its checked in setup. When I
hit "w" and cycle through the options (4x3, 16x9, stretch, ...) only the
caption changes.
2) I really want to run with the monitor at 1920x1200 resolution. At
this resolution 1080i playback is very jerky (although 720p is ok). I
can go down to 1600x1200, but wish I didn't have to.
3) Many of the Qt interface menu choices end up an unreadable light on
white.
4) The Mac keyboard doesn't work on the top levels of interface menus. I
have to use Mac remote. Both work once I get down further say in the
select a recording to watch gui, or during the actual playback.
5) Startup time is slow once I select a recording to watch.
I'm using the default configure for the build, and running against
qt-mac-free-3.3.3.
