MorphOS: MultiPlay 1.0
Grzegorz 'Krashan' Kraszewski's MultiPlay is the first program which uses the new function of Reggae 3.1.7 to play more than one audio file as seamless data stream.

The source code of this Shell-command was published under the BSD-licence which at the same time is a programming example. (snx) (Translation: dr)

AROS: Distribution AspireOS 1.97 Update 5
Nikolaos Tomatsidis has released the fifth update for version 1.97 of his AROS-distribution AspireOS. This includes a patch written by Neil Cafferkey which fixes a problem with VirtualBox.

AspireOS was written for the Acer-netbook Aspire One and can be also completely used on the Toshiba-notebook Satellite Pro A200. It is not officially supported on other hardware but should work on it. (snx) (Translation: dr)

AmigaOS 4: RadeonHD driver 1.0 RC1 (0.55)
A-EON Technology has released the first release candidate of version 1.0 of Hans de Ruiter's RadeonHD-driver for registered and new users. Changes:
  • Fixed a bug that could cause minor graphics corruption that occurred on a few graphics cards when switching between GPU and CPU based rendering (f.e. the arrow buttons in Directory Opus 4)
  • Forces the OS to wait for the GPU to be idle before a soft reboot so that some Radeon HD 5xxx cards don't lock up if the soft-reboot occurs while they're still busy (requiring a hard reset)
  • Re-enabled using timer device for longish delays when switching screenmodes (no busy waiting means more CPU time for other tasks). Added a workaround so that this doesn't prevent soft reboots
  • In addition, there have also been minor miscellaneous fixes

MorphOS: Reggae 3.1.7
An update for Grzegorz 'Krashan' Kraszewski's multimedia framework Reggae is now available. The key features of this update are two new classes. The first, clipboard.stream, provides read access to the system clipboard for the rest of Reggae, thus media files can be now automatically decoded from the clipboard.

The second class, gapless.filter, is a base building block for audio players featuring gapless playback. The first, very simple, shell based player using this feature will be released this week. Three other classes, file.output, audio.output and the base multimedia.class have been also updated with improvements and bugfixes. Users speaking Swedish or Turkish will also get some locale files.

All new features are documented in updated compiler headers and autodocs. The package can be automatically installed with Grunch or downloaded from the title link. In both cases the MorphOS SDK is updated automatically if detected. (snx)
