DisplayCAL is dead, time to move on, what alternative you choosed?

[Vincent]

Python 3.12 did have problems in windows.  Try python 3.11.  [#370] Updated README.md with a cleaner installation instructions f… · eoyilmaz/displaycal-py3@b00ae16 · GitHub    This was older for a older version 3.9.5 of displaycal.    Odd I am seeing different versions of displaycal 3.9.12 or 3.9.13 in this post.

The issue is with installer version. Compiled version seems to work but has issues with filenames

We had very limited tests with the Windows Installer, it is working fine on my Windows 10 machine. But, as I noted in the release page, it might not work properly for you, as this is the first release.

We are going to release DisplayCAL 3.9.13 this week, as we had problems under Ubuntu which are fixed and also fixed some issues with Windows, and there will be a new Windows installer. It might solve the issues. It would be great if everyone can test the installer and report back in https://www.github.com/eoyilmaz/displaycal-py3/issues

Same ARGYLL error here as well

Greetings to everyone and thank you for carrying forward this project that I thought was dead.
I installed DisplayCAL 3.9.13 on my laptop and everything was fine, however when I installed it on my HTPC, where I will actually have to use it, the attached error messages appeared

Can you tell me what the problem is? Thank you

Hey Erkan, great work with getting an .exe together! What’s the likelihood of getting an installer packaged for mac? I know a lot of users out there are running OSX.

[Erkan Ozgur Yilmaz]

The MacOS dmg package is ready and will be available this week (loosly promising as we started to have build issues with Windows package & installer, that we need to solve before releasing a new version).

[Erkan Ozgur Yilmaz]

@lello58 can you report this at http://www.github.com/eoyilmaz/displaycal/issues

[Erkan Ozgur Yilmaz]

MacOS (Apple Silicon / arm64) and Windows Installer (amd64) packages are now available: https://github.com/eoyilmaz/displaycal-py3/releases/tag/3.9.14

As usual, nothing is guaranteed to work if you have any problems please report them in http://www.github.com/eoyilmaz/displaycal/issues

So we can fix them quickly.

Cheers,

Oh just noticed a bug under Windows, to work around it, install DisplayCAL to C:\DisplayCAL (instead of C:\Program Files\DisplayCAL).

The empty spaces in paths are creating problems under Windows.

MacOS Intel x86 package is also generated by DisplayCAL community and uploaded to GitHub: https://github.com/eoyilmaz/displaycal-py3/releases/tag/3.9.14

Bit of a strange permission request from that. The original program didn’t need it, Is that necessary? 

[Jonathan Graham]

Yeaaa not sure about this guys, can we confirm this isn’t a backdoor?

Let me check if this is something we have because we didn’t specify an option for this permission or is it required for Argyll… For these kind of issues please use the GitHub issue page, as I’m not monitoring this site that often…

You’re likely to be using web localhost instead of your display. “Likely” because is 99% useless to upload that screenshot with no information.

Ragarding permissions, build DisplayCAL-py3 and see what happens and what asks you.

Quoting Erkan’s post

It would be lovely if you can generate one and send it over to me:

1 – Fristly install the requirements if you didn’t already done it before:

brew install glib gtk+3 [email protected]

2- Build DisplayCAL:

cd ~
git clone https://www.github.com/eoyilmaz/displaycal-py3
cd displaycal-py3
SYSTEM_PYTHON=python3.12 make venv build install
source ./.venv/bin/activate
python setup.py py2app

3- That should generate ~/displaycal-py3/dist/py2app.macosx-14.0-arm64-py3.12/DisplayCAL-3.9.14 folder, you can put a link to the /Applications for people to easily drag & drop the app in to their Applications folder:

cd ~/displaycal-py3/dist/py2app.macosx-14.0-arm64-py3.12/DisplayCAL-3.9.14
ln -s /Applications

4- Use Disk Utility.app to generate a dmg file, by File -> New Image -> Image From Folder… and selecting the ~/displaycal-py3/dist/py2app.macosx-14.0-arm64-py3.12/DisplayCAL-3.9.14 folder.

(*) “py2app.macosx-14.0-arm64-py3.12” will have other name depending on platform and py version
