PVRShaman, Mac OS 10.7.5, EXC_BAD_ACCESS

Hi, I have upgraded to SDK 3.1. Everything works fine, but the PVRShaman fails to open. It crashes each time upon open. No UI appears. What could be the reason.



Here is the crash log (up to the allowed length):

Hello



i tried on the OSX 10.8.3 (12D78) and everything is fine

Hi,



This appears to be an issue with Qt: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15461518/x86-qt-app-crashes-on-mac-os-10-7-lion



PVRShaman unlike the rest of our utilities is 32bit and there seems to be some problems relating to Qt 4.8.3 on OS X 10.7 and below. I’ll continue to investigate and post back when I have a solution.


Hi,



I just encountered the same problem. I upgraded and PVRShaman now crashes with similar log.

Hello.



We’ve identified the problem and have a solution so we’ll be pushing an update around the middle of next week.



Thanks and regards.

That’s great news.



Thanks Arron!

Hi Arron, how do we get the fix you have?



Thank you.

hi.

Any news on when the fix for PVRshaman will be available?

Hi folks, we should be pushing an update to PVRShaman either today or tomorrow.

OSX 10.7.5 SDK 3.1 PVRShaman crashes at startup, any news on a fix? thanks

Apologies for the delay in releasing the update however the updated version of PVRShaman is now live on the website and it should fix the problem.


Thanks Arron, it works again. Be careful to re-download the installer (I tried first with a former 3.1 version I already had and it failed) and to run the version that is on a the OSX_x86 folder.
