MovieSetter-Plugin for Hollywood
Press release: Airsoft Softwair has just released a very special Easter egg for all Hollywood users: A Hollywood plugin for videos created with Gold Disk's famous MovieSetter tool.
MovieSetter (photo) is renowned in the Amiga community because it is the tool which Eric W. Schwartz used to create his legendary clips like the Aerotoons (screenshot), Flip the Frog and Clarisse Cat, Sabrina, the intro of Team17's Superfrog (screenshot), the very funny Anti Lemmin' Demo (screenshot) and of course the Juggette clips.
Unfortunately, the original player written by Gold Disk bangs the hardware quite a lot and thus doesn't run on modern systems. But with the MovieSetter for Hollywood plugin you can now for the very first time experience Eric W. Schwartz's great animations in all their glory on your AmigaOS 4 or MorphOS system - fully PPC native with retargetable audio through AHI and RTG graphics as well! Only Hollywood makes it possible!
You can download the plugin from the official Hollywood portal at the title link. Thanks to Hollywood 5.0's cross-platform plugin system, versions for AmigaOS 3.x (Classic), AmigaOS 3.x (FPU), AmigaOS 4, MorphOS, WarpOS, AROS (Intel), Linux (PowerPC), Linux (Intel), Mac OS (PowerPC), Mac OS (Intel) and Windows are provided.
As a special convenience service we have also created a single archive that contains most of Eric's animations in just one file. Airsoft Softwair wishes all Amiga users a Happy Easter!

Self build: Floppy-Autoloader
Archieving about 5000 Amiga disks is no fun - therefore blogger 'Dweller' has been looking for a solution to automate the process.
He used a commercial disk duplicator (CopyPro 2000) and converted it to a floppy autoloader which loads one disk after another, creates an image file and finally takes a picture if it ejects the disk (video).

A lot of European initiatives for archiving software and computer games, e.g. the Software Preservation Society - originally called "Classic Amiga Preservation Society" (CAPS) - have founded an umbrella association which is called "European Federation of Game Archives, Museums and Preservation Projects" (EFGAMP).
Task of the EFGAMP will be supposed to be the improvement of the technical and regulatory framework for archiving interactive digital contents. Those tasks are to be achieved by lobbying as well as networking and exchanging knowledge with other projects.

Elbox: "New edition" of FastATA is a bogus claim
Four weeks ago Elbox promoted an alleged new edition of its IDE-controller: With the "FastATA MK-IV CF/SATA" users now could connect modern mass storage like SSD or SATA-harddrives to an Amiga.
In the English product description in the Elbox-shop it is not particularly mentioned that it is a new revision of the hardware or that the CompactFlash and SATA-ports are on the board but the written words legen are rather clear: "The FastATA 4000 MK-IV CF/SATA is designed to simultaneously use up to four devices: one Compact Flash card, one SATA drive and two to four PATA devices".
As things turned out the promoted product is the "old" controller "FastATA MK-IV" which has been unchanged available for years. It is now delivered with two standard adapters for connecting CompactFlash or SATA devices to an IDE-controller. Both adapters have to be connected with standard PATA-cables to the FastATA and separately supplied with power:
Although the PATA-SATA-adapter is a standard device which Elbox has bought from a external distributor, for unknown reasons the labeling of chip was removed in order to um complicate its identifying.
(we would like to thank "Amiga-Aktivist" for his kind permission to publish pictures he has taken)

This finally allows Hollywood users to make use of this extremely flexible universal markup language that can be used for so many purposes. The plugin needs to be installed into LIBS:Hollywood but the included installer will take care of that automatically. Once the plugin has been installed successfully, a new user library should show up in the plugin.api tab in the Hollywood GUI. This plugin is based on libexpat and luaexpat.

Accelerator board: ACA 1231 still suffering from stability issues
Several users who purchased the Amiga 1200 accelerator board ACA 1231 had been reporting stability issues. Earlier this month, the manufacturer Individual Computers responded by supplying all existing customers with an additional cooler, which will also be mounted on all future cards.
Apparently, the additional cooler substantially improves the stability of the board, but there are still customers reporting crashes. The manufacturer and some affected users are currently trying to locate the source of the problem.
