| - | If these functions don't work or you are running on Linux (version [[mgl:download#older_versions_of_mgl|1.5]] only), then you may need to [[mgl:gettingStarted#recompiling_mgl|recompile]]. This may especially be necessary if you are running an older version of matlab (we run Matlab version >= R2013a 8.1 on Mac OS >= 10.10.2 as of this writing, 3/10/2015). We have found that mex files created on Matlab 7.3 do not run on matlab 14.1 for instance (if you run -nojvm you will see that it complains that it cannot find a dynamic link library for the mex functions -- if you run with the matlab desktop it will just crash the system). If this happens to you simply recompile and you should be good to go. | + | If these functions don't work you might try checking [[http://gru.stanford.edu/doku.php/mgl/resolved_isses|here]] for some issues that come up with compatibility (for example r2016a has a fix). |

| - | We stay reasonably up-to-date with OS and Matlab versions. As of this writing (12/08/2014) we are using MGL on Mac OS 10.9.5 and Matlab 8.2 on 64 bit. If you are using a newer or very much older version of MGL, you may need to recompile. Note that the Eyelink and NI Digital I/O code may particularly have compatibility issues as they rely on libraries made by their manufacturers. As of this writing Eyelink has a 64 bit library which we run that works. NI Digital I/O is still basically 32 bit. | + | We stay reasonably up-to-date with OS and Matlab versions. As of this writing (3/2020) we are using MGL on Mac OS 10.15.3 (Catalina) and Matlab 2015a. If you are using a newer or very much older version of MGL, you may need to recompile. |

| - | Note, at this time (12/8/2014) Yosemite and Matlab (particularly older versions) do not play well together. There are some [[http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/159016-is-matlab-compatible-with-mac-os-x-10-10-yosemite|patches]], but we are staying away until Mathworks cleans things up. | + | |
| + | There is an [[:mgl:mglmetal|alpha (proof of principle) version]] that is compatible with Metal. | ||
