AmigaOS 4: Beta testers for multi-touchscreen driver wanted
Alfredo Amendolagine has written an update of his USB touchscreen driver which now also supports multi-touch. A video shows how the driver can be used. The author also promises to support additional screens if sufficient documentation is available. Users who want to test the driver are invited to contact Amendolagine. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Amiga floppy reader: ADF-Copy 1.104 supporting Flux-Level
Dominik Tonn wrote: "ADF-Copy is a small hardware i developed which uses a Teensy 3.2 microcontroller to read and write non copy protected Amiga disks with an out of the box PC 3.5" Floppy drive connected to the microcontroller which can be build with a few jumper wires on a breadboard with no additional component. The low level stuff is handled in the microcontroller which is controlled by a Java application."

Similar to Greaseweazle or Kryoflux, the latest versionen of the software now also can read disks at flux level and therefore also can read copy-protected disks.

According to the author "writing is not yet implemented". In flux format a track is bigger than the RAM of the micro controller. Therefore the data have to be transferred "on-the-fly". It is supposed to be saved saves in SuperCardPro Format. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Media player: EaglePlayer 2.06
EaglePlayer is a media player for the Amiga playing a lot of audio formats (MP3, AIFF, MOD...). The program has been available for many years and still is being updated. Version 2.06 provides many minor improvements and a new "Skin" for the user-interface of the program. Besides diverse bugs have been fixed:
  • some more 68000 related fixes (some plugins are still 68020+)
  • 14 Bit Amplifier: significant audio quality improvements
    • automatic limitation to 28 kHz sampling rate on OCS and when
    • non doublescan display modes are detected
    • way better defaults for the 14 bit table for uncalibrated systems
    • (previous default was closer to 13.5 Bit - like AHI)
    • fixed 14 bit table for calibrated setups: the C. Buchner
    • quantization approach was wrong, resulting in unnecessary artifacts
    • fixed transition delay from one song to another
    • added optional noise shaping for 16-14 bit conversion (060 or faster)
    • adjusted default volume for filtered mixing modes
    • support for stereo 14 bit calibration
    • Amiga1200 autodetection with appropriate adjustment for the "highboost"
    • equalization filter (A600 and A1200 have a different audio filter compared to the other Amiga models)
  • FFT Analyzer
    • whole new set of new display modes in High and True color P96 RTG
    • (using AMMX acceleration, if detected/available )
    • internal sine/cosine table instead of math libs due to
    • broken mathtrans/mathffp libraries
  • MPEG Audio (i.e. .mp2/.mp3)
    • automatically select freqdiv=2 in 8 Bit output mode
    • (i.e. when neither of 14 Bit/Pamela/AHI/Toccata Amplifier are active)
    • preliminary UTF-16 support for Moduleinfo and ID3TagV2
  • Moduleinfo
    • update to latest version
  • Playerloader
    • 68000 fixes and sanity checks for some tests to avoid
    • enforcer hits (e.g. tronic)
    • renamed some eagleplayers for more resilience against
    • broken unarchiver tools (replacing spaces with underscores in filenames)
    • better check for MP3 files with certain ID3v2 header versions
    • AIFF file detection improvements (AIFC)
  • Patternscroll
    • P96 RTG support: colorful and faster scrolling, color bars in 16/24 bit
  • Protracker
    • fixes for some tightly looping modules in cases where "song end"
    • detection is disabled (thanks to Gerben van K. for the report)
    • fix for some broken Protracker modules which work with VBlank timing
    • only
  • AIFF
    • ADPCM support added (standard IMA4, Tavenard's ADP4)
  • Manager
    • fixed some Enforcer hits
  • Pamela Amplifier
    • 16 Bit audio output plugin for Vampire V4
  • QuillUI
    • truecolor user interface for big screens (>800x600) as homage to
    • a certain movie series
  • TFMX_Pro player by Don Adan included

Game Construction Kit: RedPill 0.7.17
RedPill developed by Carlos Peris is a Game Construction Kit written in AmiBlitz2, which can help developing games of diverse genres - see our little review of two games. RedPill is compatible to AGA and ECS, the "player" requires 1 MB Chip as well as some Fast RAM.

Changes in version 0.7.17:
  • The frame control system has been redone, now it is faster and smoother.
  • In Audio screen, after playing a sound the duration in seconds of the sound is displayed.
  • FIX: After deleting an object in the level, there was a freeze.
  • FIX: games using sound effect were suffering slowdowns.
