Mac Support for DJI Moonlight GUI #5

I was wondering if there is anyway to port the GUI for a Mac? I ran the Windows exe on my VM, but it couldn't read and connect to the port my goggles were connected to.

The GUI currently depends on Microsoft's WebView2 which is not available on OS X and would therefor need a re-write.

The bigger problem however is porting the underlaying moonlight-embedded executable that is actually in charge of streaming (and can be used from the CLI). We've attempted this, but OS X lacks some core library functions that moonlight-embedded depends on and would need a re-write of a core part to get it to build.

Understandable. I was mostly curious because the full Moonlight also has an option to run on Macs. Is there a way to compile it for Ubuntu?

Since the moonlight client on PC in our use case it simply a dumb forwarded it was much easier for us to work with moonlight-embedded as a starting point. It would require relatively extensive modifications to the full Moonlight application to work with the goggles. In principle this is entirely possible, but would need quite a bit of effort put into it.

For Ubuntu yes - we recently merged build instructions into the repos README. Don't expect decent performance if you're running this inside a VM in OS X though.
