Side-by-Side Facts
| Metric | berg/osx-pl2303 ↗ | Skynizz/optiscaler-dlss5 ↗ |
|---|---|---|
| Description | MOVED: A very unofficial fork of the Prolific PL2303 driver hosted at http://osx-pl2303.sourceforge.net/, compiled for modern versions of Mac OS X, including Snow Leopard. Patches very welcome, particularly those that add vendor/device IDs. Prebuilt PKG (just as good as a DMG!) available for download, works on Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6) 32-bit and 64-bit kernels. | OptiScaler fork: DLSS 5 Neural Rendering, much cheaper and steadier (pre-SR, edit cache, multi-pass) |
