We are working on a Mac 2.0 software release which uses our latest core code and to write a new interface to the Mac Operating system. This involves writing new Mac virtual graphics drivers, device detection, USB video driver, audio driver and Ethernet driver. And making sure that our latest video encoder works efficiently on a Mac. That's quite a lot of work.
Once we have the new architecture, the core code gives us much more flexibility to workaround bugs found in the Apple OSX, if Apple does not address them.
With V1.8 release and older, it is getting harder to try and address a problem without breaking something else in the code. This is why V1.8 is on "life support" and you're not seeing a lot of updates.
We're trying to address the most critical bugs to make sure you can still use USB 2.0 devices. But rather than sinking more of the engineering team's time into this code stream, we want to get v2.0 out as soon as possible, as it will give the best long term solution.
