Unsupported major.minor version 52.0

You need Java 8.

[soder82]

OK. Thanks. But I read further down and downloaded the .jar instead.

But I then got this error.

$ ninja
ninja: error: '/Users/mainuser/github/scrcpy-server.jar', needed by 'server/scrcpy-server.jar', missing and no known rule to make it

What was the initial meson command you executed?

[soder82]

In the readme file, under Prebuilt server, after I've specified the path the downloaded scrcpy-server-v1.0.jar,

meson x --buildtype release --strip -Db_lto=true \
    -Dprebuilt_server=/path/to/scrcpy-server.jar
cd x
ninja
sudo ninja install

It was then I typed "ninja" I got that...

I'm having the same issue:
/scrcpy$ meson x --buildtype release --strip -Db_lto=true -Dprebuilt_server=~/Documents/scrcpy-server-v1.0.jar

@abacao Try using the full absolute path for the server:

meson x --buildtype release --strip -Db_lto=true -Dprebuilt_server="$HOME"/Documents/scrcpy-server-v1.0.jar

I now understand I had to rename the server file. Stupid by me.

But now I got this problem, I think has to do with adb. How do I set the path for that? "At runtime, adb must be accessible from your PATH."

scrcpy
exec: No such file or directory

EDIT: I solved it. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17901692/set-up-adb-on-mac-os-x

So, it's fixed?
