I have tried everything that I can think of trying to run the .exe files on my Mac but I cannot think of a solution. I have used parallels but only the free trial and would like to spend as little money as possible.
Hey, I have the latest software (4.3) running on my mac. I can share the file with you if you'd like! I just recompiled Chris's python code and changed some of the code for MacOS compatibilty. The only thing that I haven't fully fixed yet is the vision tab (since pygrabber uses packages that are only compatible with Windows)
Getting the AR4 control software up and running on MacOS SHOULD be possible, but might require a bit of work.
You should start by downloading the source files from the download page. Once you have the files extracted, take a look at the readme.txt file inside. Install the Python modules as directed in step 3 by copying and pasting the commands into the terminal.
Once you have that done, you can try running the AR4.py executable. In the terminal, change to the directory where you've extracted the files and run 'python AR4'.py. If you're lucky, the main window will pop up at this point, but it is likely that you will encouter an error at this stage.
You may need to comment out the `from pygrabber.dshow_graph import FilterGraph` and `graph = FilterGraph` lines in the source files.
