AmigaOS 4: New audio driver for Intel HD Audio
A new AHI driver for AmigaOS 4 supports PCIe cards with sound chips meeting the HD Audio specifications. The archive also includes a simple "mixer" for controlling the volume.

Which cards do work (verified):
  • Creative Labs Soundblaster Audigy FX (24bit/192kHz 5.1)
  • Startech PEXSOUND7CH (24bit/192kHz 7.1) -> Available under many different brands
  • Fransande 411944 (24bit/192kHz 7.1) -> Available under many different brands
Cards that should work:
  • Terratec AUREON 7.1 PCIe (will arive shortly for verfication)
  • Basically every combination of HDaudio controllers and HD audio multichannel codecs (eg. CA0113, CM8828, CM8888, CM9882A ALC898 etc)
Older cards that might work (no guarantees):
  • Asus Xonar Phoebus solo (CM8888 in combination with high quality discrete DACs)
  • Powercolor Devil HDX (CM8888 in combination with discrete DACs)
Cards that do not work (yet):
  • Core3d (CA0132) based Sound Blasters (Eg Z, AE-5, AE-7, AE-9 etc). These cards have a DSP (ca0132) instead of an audio codec. Support is planned but don't hold your breath because extensive and undocumented configuration is required.
Cards that will never work:
  • PCIe Asus soundcards that are on sale now. These cards are either AV100 ( rebadged CMI8788), CM8786 or C-media 6632AX (USB chip) based. Neither of these chips comply with the Intel HDaudio standard
  • Sound blaster Audigy RX and all other EMU based or X-FI based sound blasters. (do not comply with the Intel HD audio standard)
  • Non-PCIe soundcards in general like external USB cards

End user help wanted: VirusZ and xvs.library to become open source
Georg Wittmann (formerly Hörmann) plans to release the source codes of his projects VirusZ and xvs.library after 15 years of inactivity. Before that he wants to make sure that his anti-virus software runs on AmigaOS 4, MorphOS and AROS (m68k): Since he himself does not have most of the systems mentioned, he has written a short program that collects and outputs information about the current computer. He asks that as many users as possible with one of the mentioned operating systems run the program and send him the output by e-mail. (cg) (Translation: bb)

At the title link, Lars Sobiraj did an interview with the german ASCII artist 'Yop' of Shrimps Design. The 45 y.o. had been active since 1993 in the Amiga ASCII scene and recollects how much he did like to work with the text editor CygnusED back then. Today, however, he doesn't own an Amiga anymore and is rarely using an emulator even. (snx)

OnyxSoft: ZapperNG 1.2
ZapperNG by Stefan Blixth is an extended re-implementation of the MorphOS commodity Zapper by his former team fellow Adam Waldenberg. Unlike the original program, ZapperNG is also available for AmigaOS 3.x, AmigaOS 4 and AROS (the latter being a port by Eugene Sobolev). Now version 1.2 has been released.

The commodity modifies the ZipWindow() function of intuition.library, i.e. the behaviour of the "zoom" symbol in the upper right corner of a window. Instead of switching between two sizes of a window, it becomes extended to the full screen. Depending of the chosen parameter, the screen's title bar is either omitted or not. Further options enable a balanced scaling to all directions, avoiding the active window to put into front, defining a hotkey as alternative to clicking the zoom symbol, and cycling between windows by pressing Alt-Tab.
