AmigaOS 4: Web-Browser OWB 2.20
Jörg Strohmayer has published an update of his port of the Origyn Web Browser. The changes in version 2.20:
- Some more small font tweaks, for example at 13px the bold Arial got a different size than the regular one
- Updated curl-ca-bundle.crt
- Reenabled drawing and scrolling optimisations while a page is still loading since it didn't fix the problems on AmigaOS 4.0
- Disabled progress bar when running on AmigaOS 4.0, it didn't test it but maybe that fixes the freezes

More than 70% of the thousands of games available for legal download from their original publishers and from Amiga preservation sites can be run with the new Value Edition.

AROS: MPlayer ported
Krzysztof 'Deadwood' Smiechowicz has adapted Fabien 'Fab' Coeurjoly's MorphOS-port of the video play program MPlayer to AROS/x86 (screenshot).
The AROS-version supports 3dnow and recognizes the used processor. SSE/SSE2 is being not supported. The sound output also is limited: The modi s16be and s17le work while others (24, 32, ac3) does not. If you have some "problem videos" then please send them to the author. Furthermore the WMV- and ASF-files can be played in the native AROS-version but cannot played on hosted versions.
