static, precomiled ltcdump binaries
I'm working on an application that synchronizes files in post-production. GPL 3.0. The project is at https://github.com/arikrupnik/ltcsync. The project uses ltcdump to parse timecode out of audio streams. For cross-platform UI, the project uses Electron.js. I want to support MacOS, Windows and Linux.
My approach to interfacing with ltcdump has been to invoke it as a child process from Node. This works well in my development on Linux. For MacOS and Windows users, I want to package pre-built, static binaries with my distribution. I understand that on occasion, you've made ltcdump.exe available.
I wonder if you may be willing to provide official, static binaries for ltcdump.
I can do a one time compile, but I'm not interested in maintaining binary releases. Maybe travis or some similar CI can help and compile those binaries?
Thank you for getting back to me! A one-time compile would be wonderful and would get me going.
I would love to set up CI builds. I would set uplibltc and ltctools as submodules of LTScync. I can set up the Linux build, but my challenge is setting up the Windows or Mac builds, and Travis doesn't even support Windows.
In any case, if you could one-time build static binaries for Linux, Windows and Mac, it would help the LTCsync project greatly.
Thank you again for your software, and for getting back to me on this.

I'm considering to some Linux x86, x86_64 and armhf binaries, too...
Thank you! It would be wonderful if you could add Linux binaries for completeness. I think x86 and x86_64 are the two common targets. I don't know if ARM is a big market in video editing.
Out of curiosity--Mac .zip is the only file that doesn't include version number in the file name.
I've also fixed the MacOS/X zip name. Thanks for noticing. Re ARM, The target is Raspberry-Pi for example. It may come in handy for some embedded solution anyway.
Now I have to check out your LTCSync too. I don't have an immediate use-case, but handling tenatacle sync is very interesting!
Thank you. I would appreciate any feedback. The project is in early stage of development, so feedback now can have large impact!
I have verified linux-x86_64 and w64 builds are working. I don't have a Mac environment, but I can get one through Travis. I need to do a little more work for my tests to run on CI (https://github.com/arikrupnik/ltcsync/issues/4). Will let you know once I can verify it there.
