Add a macOS/Linux section to the README explaining how to build the native MLow codec into native/libopus_mlow.a and run with CGO_ENABLED=1 -tags mlow, plus scripts/build-mlow.sh which clones and builds edgardmessias/opus_mlow into native/. The .a is intentionally NOT committed: it is architecture-specific, and a stray .a in native/ would be picked by the Windows linker ahead of opus_mlow.dll (GNU ld searches lib<name>.a before <name>.dll), breaking the Windows -tags mlow build. So native/*.a is git-ignored and built locally per platform. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

What
Make native (live-audio) builds work on macOS/Linux, which previously only had Windows instructions.
native/libopus_mlow.a, how to build it, and theCGO_ENABLED=1 go run -tags mlow …command. Requirements updated accordingly.scripts/build-mlow.sh: clones and buildsedgardmessias/opus_mlowand copies the static lib intonative/..gitignore: ignoresnative/*.a.Why the
.ais not committedA compiled
.ais architecture-specific. Worse, a straynative/libopus_mlow.awould break the Windows build: for-lopus_mlow, GNU ld searcheslibopus_mlow.abeforeopus_mlow.dll, so on Windows it would try to link the wrong-arch archive instead of the bundled DLL. So the library is built locally per platform and git-ignored; Windows keeps using the committed.dlls untouched.Without the matching lib (or without
-tags mlow) the server still runs in signaling-only mode.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
