Looking for VDMX for old Mac PowerPC / PPC

VDMX
1

Hi all,

I am trying to revive an old VDMX setup which we ran on an old Mac Powerbook Laptop with G4 PowerPC processor a few years ago. It was a very unique setup and it would be great to revive it.

I searched everywhere and contacted the support but I could not find a version that runs on that Laptop. According to the version info the last version supporting Mac OS Leopard 10.5 was b0.8.0.6.2… I would be very grateful if anybody had such a version lying around on a backup.

Back then Vidvox also provided an app to convert videos and animations to AIC (Apple Intermediate Codec). That codec was extremely fast on PowerPC and it would be wonderful to have a converter, too.

Lovely wishes to the community

Is that one Universal Binary? Just right click the app and it should say Kind: Application (Universal Binary). Maybe it is worth a try. Thanks anyway ;)

it’s a .pkg, so it just says installer flat package; it’s only 12MB so I could just send it I guess?

Yes. I would like to try it. :)

Thanks for your effort. It was worth a try!

Unfortunately, the app is Intel only. :(

I can’t be the only one keeping older builds. Keeping all projects alive is an issue and the whole idea of conserving digital art is a valid problem. Museums are already strugling on maintaing digital art.
