FormAldiHyd v2.0 Beta with WacomIV Support On 1st of January Chris Hodges has updated his tablet driver software for the Aldi/Tevion/Medion and AipTek/HyperPen tablets and included an experimental WacomIV mode. As he does not own such a WacomIV tablet himself and had no time to continue development due to lack of time, he depends on the response and feedback of users with WacomIV tablets who test the new driver and tell him what works and what doesn't.

New Version (V.44.50 beta 7) of the HSMathLibs Again there is a new version of the HSMathLibs for MC68040 and MC68060 for registered users. Many bugs were fixed and some smaller optimisations were done. The most significant enhancements in this version for sure are full compatibility with OS3.9 and support of (hopefully) all special cases of the math-libraries. [News message: 27.

Specifications for Handheld Software under SDK Amiga Inc. released the specifications for developers to create software for Palm/Handheld/PDA computers on the official AmigaSDK developer list [AMIOPEN-ML]. Following the data: QVGA (240*320 Pixel) 16 Bit Color 16 Bit Stereo (audio available form SDK-Version 1.1) Controls via 2 buttons (a+b) and one Game Boy typ Directional Device Shall be smaller than 2 MB. Suggestions for game genres: scramble/defender types space invaders/galaxians types platformers puzzle games sports stuff To make this possible create a standard AVE window and add a 16 bit 240*320 pixmap.

27.Jan.2001 Fun Time World |
SoftCinema and How to Get New Codecs Sebastian Brylka from Fun Time World did a summary of a Polish article (see title link) which we review here by his agreement. «Jacek Cybularczyk, author of SoftCinema, released an article about the origin of new codecs for the video player on Amiga.com.pl. This article was written in Polish, thus here only the most important details. Meantime the program SoftCinema can read the two formats OpenDivX and soon 3ivX, too. Still missing e.g. is MPEG-4 support and several other not quite legal codecs. The problem about those is that sources of the formats are not free available. But there are some possibilities to fix this problem, too. Though there are codecs for MPEG-4 and DivX on Macintosh, but due to missing documentations of the Macintosh resources and extensions this all might be difficult, somehow. The authors also don't seem to have a PowerMac for disassembling. In case of the second possibility the author wrote that many might think this to be moronic, but the thing works. You take the Windows dll's for help. Work started about two month ago. The technic used is called "binary translation". First the x86 code gets prepared for the C preprocessor in form of a macro instruction. Much of the work takes the program TX86 which can read the dll's (comparable to Amiga libraries) and convert them to C code. This isn't done total automatically, so you still have to correct much yourself. The this way created code is compiled and can be executed under a Windows emulated environment called WIN32ENV. In this a part of Win32 and some important libraries are emulated. This all works on a PowerPC native only. Though all possible codecs run, but speed is at flabby 1 FPS. To get things somehow faster the code, which contains about 17,000 lines of macro instructions, must get optimized. Unfortunately without optimization 72 MB are not enough to compile, thus the rest of the work were done under APUS with a 200 MB SWAP file. For an optimized compilation a 1 GB SWAP file was needed. The procedure took about 13 hours. But the effort was worth while, meantime everything runs much faster. Next the dll's will be converted to assembler to gain even better speed. This is possible after analysing the C codes and using what GCC has generated. Later on everything will get optimized once more. After profiling often used program parts either will be re-written or more heavy optimized. [News message: 27. Jan. 2001, 14:18] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version] |

nectarine * looking for host A regular listener of the demo radio station 'nectarine *' wrote: "Hi and hello, as regular listener I have sad news which could still be turned into a story with happy end until end of February. What is Nectarine? At nectarine.ojuice.net/index.htm you'll find a very special internet radio. They broadcast music of game classics and well-known sceners. Further, you can upload tracks as a small home producer. This all results in an interesting music mix which clearly stands out from the usual droning. Well and now, where's the problem? Nectarine needs a new HOST... here's the original message: Why Nectarine can close at the end of February - For now, Nectarine is friendly hosted by the company where i work (http://www.poliris.com) as Orange Juice webserver etc.. They help us a lot with hardware, technologie and prices for LTP (remember the travel for Amiga competition at LTP IV). They paid every month for an Easynet 12 mb/s ATM line but in March they will pay only for the bandwith that the company needs. So, as nectarine isn't a company project i can't ask them to pay for us. Maybe you noticed that they didn't ask for any adverts at all. - Nectarine needs a new host (best is in Paris) where i can put the 2 computers of Nectarine Radio. The total amount of bandwith needed could be a very stable 1.5~2mb/S or more and we can find relays everywhere to reduce the total amount. In exchange we can promote the company who host us with banners, jingles etc... If you think that you can help us then just send an email to me. Every emails will be answered. For now, those peoples try to help us: Scene.org ! Audiorealm ! SonicBox ! and lot of Nectarine lovers ! thx ciao THOMAS SiEGEL aka d!RT!e (Organiser of mOOdS.2xs.de)" [News message: 26.

VirusHelp Denmark: New TCP Trojan Found A new 'TCP' Trojan was found in New Zealand. So far it isn't known what installs the trojan, but Zbigniew Trzcionkowski, the programmer of Safe, has already updated his virus detector so that the Trojan can be found in memory. The TCP Trojan replaces "c:mount" by a 7484 byte long file and creates a new file "c:f". The new file c:mount is a clone of the Vaginitis virus.

Motorola COLDFIRE® Processor News As the manufacturer was criticized continuously by the current 68k users because the currently available COLDFIRE® processor has neither FPU nor (sufficiently 68k compatible) MMU, the engineering team has designed a new ColdFire (4e) which contains both FPU and MMU and is supposed to replace the 68k generation. Motorola wants to take this step to "untie" their current customers from the (apparently still sold in huge amounts) 68k processors. The soon to be released, ABSOLUTELY 68k compatible ColdFire 4e is supposed to take their place and replace the old processor family in future. Here you'll find further details on the COLDFIRE4® processor. Suplement: More links on this subjects: Technical description Coldfire4e Coldfire Roadmap [News message: 26.

test.amigadev.net Runs on AmigaDE The test page created by Amiga Inc. test.amigadev.net/ runs according to a http:// request issued by telnet on a server "AmigaDE zAMilo V0.098". Looks like the FTP server would be running on wu-ftpd (it's possible that it may be ported to AmigaDE). The server reacts to "finger", but nobody was logged in. www.amigadev.net and test.amigadev.net are at least hosted in entirely different nets, not on the same computer. The test page currently shows a logo which poses the question: "Can you write multimedia apps that run in a dozen host environments?" and answers it with the 'Artix logo and "zAMilo http server" powered by Amiga Digital Environment'.
