[edit]
Requirements
- Apple Java Runtime environment (JRE) 1.6 and above. Not sure if you already have Java ? Check this link.
- 1024x768 screen resolution and higher
- (Strongly recommended) Mplayer
- Download it at http://www4.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/MPlayerOSX_1.0rc1.dmg (DO *NOT* USE MPLAYER at http://mplayerosx.sourceforge.net/ it's outdated and will not work)
- Jajuk searches 'mplayer' binary by default at
/Applications/MPlayer OSX.app/Contents/Resources/External_Binaries/mplayer_intel.app/Contents/MacOS/mplayer
directory for intel OSX and
/Applications/MPlayer OSX PPC.app/Contents/Resources/External_Binaries/mplayer_ppc.app/Contents/MacOS/mplayer
for PowerPC OSX (default location for OS X applications).
If you get warning message and mplayer is installed elsewhere, change the path in the Preferences view / advanced tab / "MPlayer path" field

Installation using the Java installer
- Double-click on the downloaded file (jajuk-java-installer-${version}.jar). If nothing appends, it means .jar extension is not mapped to the java program. Then, you can map it (open with...) or launch it by typing in a console:
java -jar jajuk-java-installer-${version}.jar
- Select your language for installation
- Read carefully the provided README file
- Read and accept GPL license.
- Select installation target
- Create shortcuts
[edit]
Run
- Click on created shortcuts
- Or launch from console using sh ${jajuk installation path}/jajuk.sh

Upgrade
If you already have an installed Jajuk release:
- It is safe to install the new release over previous one without uninstalling, Jajuk supports backwards compatibility. Your collection and configuration is kept and is stored under {your home directory}/.jajuk
- Jajuk doesn't support downwards compatibility: A Jajuk release may not work with a collection built by a newer release than the one you use.
[edit]
Uninstallation
- If you used the Java Installer, launch created uninstaller from menu
