System Requirements

On this page:

Supported platforms

Radio Explorer is supported on all versions of Windows starting from Windows 98, and on all curently supported versions of Ubuntu Linux Desktop Edition.

Although only limited support is provided for the Mac OS X operating system, Radio Explorer is reported to run with only a few possible glitches on recent versions of Mac OS X with recent versions of Java software.

Radio Explorer may also run on other operating systems for which Java software is available.

If you run Radio Explorer on Mac OS X or on another operating system, and encounter a problem, you are encouraged to report it to support(at)radioexplorer.com.ru, as described at the Technical Support page.

Java software

Radio Explorer requires Java software version 1.4.2 or later to be installed on your machine.

For some operating systems, Java software is available from more than one supplier. Java software from Oracle Corporation (previously from Sun Micro­systems, Inc.) is recommended on Windows, Linux, and on other operating systems for which it is available. If Java software from Oracle is not available for your operating system, you can try running Radio Explorer with Java software from other suppliers.

It is recommended that you keep Java software up‑to‑date on your machine. Updates provide Java software with the latest data about time zones and their daylight saving time regulations, as well as resolve possible Java software vulnerability issues.

On Windows

Java software from Oracle is available free at the download page of java.com.

Java™. Get Java software.

You can check whether Java software is installed on your machine, as well as find out whether the installed version is the recommended version, using the installation verification page of java.com, the consumer site for Java software.

You can check whether Java software works correctly on your machine, as well as find out its version and its supplier, using the work test page of java.com.

To update Java software, use Java Control Panel, available via Windows Control Panel.

On Linux

Java software from Oracle is available free at the download page of java.com.

Radio Explorer might not run with OpenJDK Java software, which is available as a package for main Linux distributions. Please use Java software from java.com instead. It is based on and improved over OpenJDK.

On Mac OS X

Java software for Mac OS X is produced natively by Apple. Mac OS X comes with Java software installed by default.

To update Java software, use the Software Update utility of Mac OS X.

System configuration

If your computer can run Java software, then there are no additional system requirements, except for the minimum screen resolution, which is 1024 by 600 pixels.

For system requirements of Java software from Oracle, please see java.com. For system requirements of Java software from other suppliers, please see their Web sites.
