Hi,  
We have been running WSE in production on Apple Mac minis since 2011 and it has worked really well for us.

I have been testing with WSE 4.8.24 on a new Mac mini using Apple Silicon M2 and Rosetta 2.

It is running well **for our use case,** which is basic vod, live & dvr streaming with Wowza CDN.  
No transcoding or anything complex.

Today I replaced the x86-64 JRE 11 bundled in WSE (11.0.2+9) with the [Homebrew](https://brew.sh) openjdk 11 (11.0.21+0) and WSE and WSE Manager both started and run just fine, Again, **for our use case** …

My question is have Wowza Media Systems considered releasing a fully supported version of WSE for Macs running on Apple Silicon? If not can I urge them to do so?

Cheers,  
Jo
