Hollywood Player 5.1 for Android released
Press release: Airsoft Softwair is proud to announce that Hollywood is now also available for Android devices (ARM architecture). This makes it possible for the first time for every Hollywood user to run his Hollywood applets on smart phones and tablet computers running Android. Everything you need is the Hollywood Player for Android which is now available as a free download on Google Play. To see what Hollywood on Android looks like check out a little demo video on YouTube.
Please note that the Hollywood Player for Android requires at least Android 2.3. To get your own Hollywood project onto your Android device, simply compile it as a Hollywood applet (*.hwa) from the Hollywood GUI or Hollywood Designer and then copy it into a directory named "Hollywood" on the SD card of your Android device. Then you can easily run it using the Hollywood Player!
Featurewise the Hollywood Player for Android is pretty identical to the desktop version of Hollywood, plugins and videos are fully supported. Due to security reasons, however, certain functionality like starting external programs is currently disabled. You can find a complete list of differences between the desktop and mobile versions of Hollywood in the release notes in the Hollywood forums. Please note that the Hollywood Player for Android is a WIP snapshot from the current development version of Hollywood 5.1 which has not been released yet and is still a work-in-progress.
Due to the multitude of Android devices and the often scarcely documented native development interface of Android, it can happen that this app does not run on your Android device. If that is the case, please let us know in the Hollywood forums or via email.
Information can be found on the Airsoft Softwair Homepage or the official Hollywood portal.

Amiga 500 plays complete movies from harddrive
With the help of the converter AVI4HV video files can be converted into formats which can be played with a Amiga 500 (288x200 HAM6, 8Bit 11KHz Stereo) or Amiga 1200 (320x216). 1,5 MB RAM as well as a hraddrive are required.
Complete movies just like "Apocalypse Now" under the title link have to be divided into two files due to the limitations under AmigaOS. A short article about the topic also can be find in current issue of the PDF-magazine Lotek.

Online game database "Oregami": Open for everyone!
Sebastian Eichholz wrote: "For some one and a half years now, we 're tinkering around with some people on our new and ultimate online database for computer and video games named OReGamI (full name is "Open Registry of Game Information"). Within over 800 forum posts we've already created a large amount of the very important data model, built the foundation for the coding with Java and, now, are ready to take the next step: publishing our unfinished work.
Why that, you may ask? Because we want everyone of you to take part in the complete development process of this ambitious project. This can mean reading into our forums as often as you want, or sniffing around in our Java code base.
And when there's something you wanna tell us regarding our ways, or wanna comment on a certain issue, just do it! Register at the forums and post to the public area what's bothering you. If you'd like to join us and actively take part in the development, you should send some info about yourself to Sebastian using gene[at]oregami.org. We're always open for new people, be it gaming experts, programmers, designers or lawyers.
We're curious to meet you!
Some final words: We're German and in order to not introduce an additional language barrier, we started this project using our native language. But this is not a Sauerkraut project. It can't be, because we wanna document the global history of video games. So, we're slowly trying to switch to the English language whereever possible.
We started by offering the contents of our shiny new website bilingual. Substantial information about our project crave for readers."

AmigaOS 4: Fourth beta of Firefox-port Timberwolf
Hans-Jörg and Thomas Frieden have published a new beta version of their Firefox port "Timberwolf". Besides bug fixes, the new version implements some major new feature:
- - Drag & Drop support (customizing, bookmark sorting)
- - Clipboard support (text only at the moment)
- - Sound support (can now play video and audio streams)
- - Some internal changes. NSPR threads completely rewritten to cope with NSPR's pecularities of condition variables.
Thomas Frieden wrote at amigaworld: "As I said, this version is supposed to be "feature complete" to the extend what is possible on current AmigaOS. What remains to be done is bugfixing and occasional optimization, but the feature completeness was my current goal." (cg) (Translation: dr)

AmigaOS 4: X11-environment AmiCygnix 1.1
With Edgar Schwan's X11-environment AmiCygnix (screenshots: 1,
2,
3,
4,
5)
it is possible to launch several Unix applications under AmigaOS. Most important changes in version 1.1:
- Support of programs compiled for GTK+ 2.24 and GTK+ 3.x.
- A new (experimental) display driver is included, which opens a X11 display in a workbench window.
- The X server and the display drivers were revised. The server can now be launched several times without problems.
- All new programs with an own directory in the AmiCygnix "Software" directory will have two start scripts: One for opening the application on the desktop (just like before) and a script, which opens the program in an own display. With a special version of the settings editor "myX11Setup" you can select the display driver and the window manager for every application, which is launched with the new start script.
- A new icon theme in AmgaOS 4.1 style is included.
- The workbench icons are now all in AmigaOS 4.1 style.
- Version 1.0 of AmiCygnix could not be installed on partitions formatted with the filesystem JXFS. This is now solved.
- Most of the programs and libraries used in this package were replaced by current versions.
AmiCygnix 1.1 can be copied over an existing installation of a previous version.
The distribution consists of two parts: The base archive AmiCygnix-Base and the tool collection AmiCygnix-Tools.
