AmigaOne X1000: Processor-Benchmarks
Under the recently published Linux port benchmark programms were run on an AmigaOne X1000 .
Harry 'Piru' Sintonen has completed these results with the one of his PowerBook (G4-Prozessor mit 1,67 GHz) and posted under the title link. This comparison generally confirms earlier results and demonstrates the most outstanding advantage of the PA6T-computer, its fast Fourier transform (FFT). Another user has added his results of a Power Mac G5.
Meanwhile also benchmark results of a rendering with the 3D-graphic programm Blender are available.

APC&TCP: DigiBooster replayer DigiRoller 1.1
DigiRoller is a standalone replayer for DigiBooster Pro 2.x and DigiBooster 3 music modules. Version 1.1 contains the latest replayer engine featuring AHI-independent DSP echo effect.
The latter is backward compatible with old echo (V till Z commands are fully supported), but the effect is processed inside the engine, so it is always active. Echo in AHI may be safely turned off. Additional feature of the new echo (which will be used in DigiBooster 3) is a new echo mode (command V2), where each track can have independent echo parameters.

The installation and use of the Linux-distribution on the X1000 requires some knowledge. Therefore an installation tutorial is available. Steven Solie, Hyperion's project manager of the operating system development thanked Varisys for the original Linux-Kernel and A-EON Technology for the adaption of the firmware and all honorary helpers.

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!
