- Support for planar, chunky, 15 bit and 24 bit YAFA anims
- Support for byte, word, and longword delta compression
- HAM6 and HAM8 modes fully supported
- Anims that use a dynamic palette are supported
- Support for timestamped anims
- Native decompressor for XPK FAST, NUKE, and RAKE packed anims; xpkmaster.library is not necessary
- Native decompressor for StoneCracker 4.04 packed anims (used only by early Wildfire versions)
This plugin is available for free download from the official Hollywood portal. Thanks to Hollywood 5's cross-platform plugin system versions for AmigaOS 3.x (with and without FPU), AmigaOS 4, MorphOS, WarpOS, AROS (Intel), Linux (PowerPC), Linux (Intel), Mac OS X (PowerPC), Mac OS X (Intel), Windows and Google Android are provided.

Workbench enhancement: BetterWB 3.3
Similar to AIAB, AmiKit or AmigaSYS, BetterWB is a collection of Workbench enhancements for AmigaOS 3.1, which are useful but rather simple and therefore require low hardware configuration. It is meant for e.g. purists and users of low end Amigas or Minimig users.
BetterWB runs on any Amiga and is provided as disk images. It requires the original disks of Workbench 3.1 (may also work under 3.0, but was not tested) and 8 MB harddrive memory.
Changes:
- Updated icon.library to version 46.4.332
- Added showboards command so that we can detect some ACA accelerators (WhichAmiga fails with some of them)
- Added PowerSnap commodity for enhanced clipboard functionality
- Redit 1.8 replaces the aging Ed and gives you much more functionality
- Added a new "IconSet" preferences app that lets you switch between different built-in icon types
- Plus many more fixes and minor enhancements

DigiBooster 3: Open Source Portable DigiBooster 3 Replayer released
Press release: After succesfull introduction of DigiBooster 3, APC&TCP releases an open source DigiBooster 3 replayer routine organized as a static library. The code is being released on permissive, two-clause BSD license. The player is written in clean C with minimal dependencies. As such it has been succesfully compiled and tested on numerous platforms: AmigaOS 4 and Morphos, Linux (on x86, x86_64 and aarch64), Windows (XP, Win7, 32 and 64 bit) and MacOS X (x86_64). It also supports the most popular compilers:
GCC, Clang and Visual C++. The package contains source code of two example tools: 'dbminfo' displays information about a module, 'dbm2wav' renders a module into 44.1 kHz 16-bit stereo WAVE file. Of course libraryAPI documentation is provided as well.
Based on this code we plan to release in the near future more ready to use components, like shared libraries for AmigaOS and MorphOS and a few plugins for popular audio players.
Release of this code ends difficulties of playing DigiBooster 2/3 modules on non-Amiga(like) systems.
The library package is available for downloads on the official DigiBooster 3 webpage. Any questions related to the package may be asked on the official DigiBooster support forum.

AROS: Distribution AROS Vision 2.3 with Wildfire 7 and Games Master System
Olaf Schönweiß has released version 2.3 of his AROS/68k-distribution AROS Vision. It includes the full version of the animation and special effects programm Wildfire 7 as well as the latest version of AMOS Professional (bug fixes). Additionally, the "Games Master System" is included which is a developer kit for games. This is now Freeware.
Based on this, a AMOS-Pro-extension was integrated (command list ). This is a little example which opens an AGA-screen and loads an IFF-picture:
G Init GMS
G Screen Open 0,320,256,256,lowres
G Load IFF "clown.pic",0
G Wait LMB
G Reset
Additional to other extensions of the distribution like Netsurf AGA and the support of Tracker-modules of the Mod-file format, there now is also an online version of the tutorial for the included file manager Directoy Opus Magellan.
AROS Vision is tested under WinUAE as well as under FS-UAE.

AROS: Experimental distribution Icaros Desktop 1.5.2 WIP 5
Paolo Besser has released another "experimental" version 1.5.2 WIP 5 ("work in progress") of his AROS-distribution Icaros Desktop. You can find a list of changes under the title link. The last stable version 1.5.2 was released in May.
Please note that the WIP-versions are incompatible to the official ones of the distribution. They are based on Krzysztof Śmiechowicz' back ports of functions of the development branch ABIv1 to the binary interface of version 0. Therefore this version is meant for users who want to support this development by testing and reporting feedbacks.

AROS: Survey on interest on AEROS for Sam4x0- and AmigaOne-X1000-boards
Under the title link Pascal Papara has announced to adapt his Linux-hosted AROS-distribution AEROS to the PowerPC-Boards Sam440ep (Flex) and Sam460ex developed by ACube Systems and AmigaOne X1000 developed by A-EON Technology working under AmigaOS 4, if at least 50 users register interest. - In this context he mentioned that by comparision for his Raspberry-Pi-version he has 300 registered users.
An advantage of AEROS - additional the access to Linux - compared to the native version of AROS developed by Jason McMullan for the Sam460ex, is that it can use the ABI-V1 back ports of Krzysztof 'deadwood' Śmiechowicz which among others make it possible to use Directory Opus 5.

AmigaOS 4: Development site for future MUI-versions established
Thore Böckelmann and Jens Maus wrote: "From now on a public website for interested AmigaOS-4-developers and users is available under the title link who use the Magic User Interface (MUI).
This site is meant as a focal point for MUI-documentations, FAQs and updates. Furthermore the website is to use by the MUI-developers for developeing further MUI for AmigaOS 4. All available MUI-versions on this website are offered with the explicit permission of the original MUI-author (Stefan Stuntz).
In order to be able to completely configure the user-interface and to change the standard skin, these versions require (similar to MUI 3.8) a keyfile, which can be only ordered via the MUI-Homepage of Stefan Stuntz. If you already have a key for MUI 3.8 or MUI 3.9, you can use it without any limitations with the new version.
Additional to the download of the developed AmigaOS-4-versions of MUI, a public bugtracker is available. All AmigaOS-4-developers and users are very welcome to report identified problems and bugs there. You can also post ideas and suggestions which then will be integrated in future versions. Currently anonymous bugreports are accepted but the MUI-developers asked every interested user to create an account to simplify the communication for solving a problem and to enable direct consultations."

X500 case: Boingball and Butterfly keys (Update)
For his retro case X500 (amiga-news.de reported) Loriano 'TheDaddy' Pagni now also offers keyboards. The keys are printed in colour with over 300 dpi and have a Boingball or the MorphOS butterfly Morpho menelaus (picture).
Update: (20:30, 05.02.14, snx)
According to a current comment, the keys are for a new version of the case (called X500 Evo instead of X500 Plus), but should - according to Pagni - also fit to other mechanical keyboards like Ducky Zero, Filco or Das Keyboard. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Controlling Arduino systems: Hollywood LCARS Connect
Achim Kern is working on a Hollywood programm for controlling Arduino systems (video). It can be communicated with the Arduino Yun, the pcDuino and the Iteaduino as well as with the Raspberry Pi.
The system can access connected sensors, e.g. for humidity, temperature, light or motion and process these values or sned them to a website. Additionally the individual pins and thus e.g. relais of devices can be connected.
The Philips Hue Light system was recently added. The software can access the bridge and turn on or off all available lamps and can choose the colours. The motion detector also is connected with the Light System. If an intruder is noticed, an alert ("Red Alert") alarm is triggered.
According to the author, Hollywood LCARS Connect is still in progress. A beta version for connecting the Amiga to the Yun-Board and the Hue-System is planned. For combining hardware and software,he has to write an tutorial because it is very complex.

AmigaOS 4: Audio-Player AmigaAMP 3.13
Thomas Wenzel has updated his music play programm AmigaAMP. In version 3.13 several minor bugs were fixed:
- Fixed some more playlist/directory handling bugs
- Fixed cover drawing and uniconifying of tag editor window
- Added pattern matching filter to modplug loader
- "Autoplay file" now also works for dragging files on the playlist window
- Dragging directories on AmigaAMP's AmiDock icon now works
- Switched play list handling to saving and loading WinAMP style .pls files
- Revised window depth arrangement and alignment code
- Updated WinAMP5 skin
- Use mouse wheel in equalizer window to move sliders
- Fixed clearing of comment field when opening MP3 file without comment
- Fixed format display in main ReAction window
- Fixed initial playlist display in ReAction window
- Renamed info win to just "Info" because it can't edit tags any more
Important: This new version doesn't load plain text files as playlists any more when using the normal Eject/Open/Drag'n'drop functions. I've you've built your own playlists and want to continue using them then load them via Load List in the playlist window and save them again. They will be automatically converted.
This is to prevent the following bug: If under AmigaAMP 3.12 and earlier a complete directory with all files in it was opened, and a text file is there as well, by mistake it is loaded as playlist. This causes much trouble. In the latest version this cannot happen any longer.

Linux: Kernel 3.10.0 for Eyetech AmigaOne, Sam460 support canceled (update)
Users of an Eyetech AmigaOne can also access a Linux-Kernel: Already in August on Sourceforge a port of Linux 3.10.0 for the AmigaOne XE with G3 or G4CPU was released.
Now 'Spectre660', who was responsible for adapting the kernels to Sam460, stated that he will not continue that. Obviously his Sam460 is damaged and because furthermore some AmigaOS4-users in the official Hyperion forum are angry about the many Linux-News, he is lacking in motivation to keep on investing time or money for the Linux support.
Update: (27.01.2014, 14:30, cg)
Obviously ACube offered to replace the damaged Sam460 and thus to put Spectre660 in the position to provide further updates of the Linux-kernel. (cg) (Translation: dr)

AmigaOS 4: MUI-port has to be registered (Update)
According to some posts, since the last update the MUI4-version of AmigaOS 4 requires to register. The authors of the port could not contact the original developer, Stefan Stuntz. Therefore they first offered MUI4 with a keyfile.
Meanwhile Stefan Stuntz, who still is active member of the MorphOS-team answered and claimed the rights to MUI. If you already have a valid MUI-key you can use it with MUI4.
Update: (12:06, 22.01.13, snx)
As mentioned by one of the authors of the AmigaOS 4 port in our german thread of comments, the previous version of MUI4 did not include a keyfile. (snx) (Translation: dr)
