M1 native build

Any chance of getting an M1 native (Universal) build?

Sorry for slow reply. I won't say this project is dead, but it is at least deep in a very long rest.
I'm up for it, but not sure if/when I can get to it. The code is pretty old at this point, as is my memory of it :) so there'll be catchup work vs. just repackage and done.

I appreciate your interest and welcome anyone who wants to do something with this. I had really hoped there'd be zero use for it at this point, but I realize there are still issues with the car's media player and it's still useful for some people.

I doubt there will ever be zero use for it. As long as there are major issues, TT will help avoid them by writing out the compatible codecs and tags. If Tesla adds features, TT can ensure the files have the data necessary to leverage them. In both cases, optimizing the files (think: size of album covers) can reduce the CPU & memory pressure in the MCU.

Looking briefly at the code, updating the embedded frameworks with M1/Universal versions and rebuilding should be 90% of the work.

Just did some tests - both AAC files I purchased from Apple and Apple Lossless files ripped from my own CDs now play just fine in my Model 3.

Suspect this is due to the support added for Apple Music, though there's also a chance it's related to the newer computer in my new 2024 Model 3.
