This is something for which I'd pay good money. I'm a huge fan of the WarpDT datatype package from @futura and would love to see a WarpRAW package as well.

Great idea, tekmage!

Since updating to the latest builds of AmigaAMP and TuneNet this morning, I realized that most of the MP3 streams that I listen to -- that aren't now restricted to some blasted custom web-based player -- use https transport rather than http. This means that I can't use the native Amiga tools available (of which I am aware) to stream them.

So... is there a tool that allows for MP3 or AAC streaming over https transport? Or am I just stuck at the moment? I asked this question over at AWN, but didn't get a reply. I'm hoping maybe someone knows over here.

I just discovered eNewsReader again this morning, and wow, this is a terrific RSS client! Thank you so much for such a useful AmigaOS tool.

@orgin

looks good to me. i always prefer a dark theme.

@tekmage

i'm in! well, assuming my A1222 can play the game in question.

@thread

years ago, one of my passions was playing maelstrom on my macintosh, and it looks like a very similar game is coming to the amiga courtesy of our friends at entwickler-x! they just posted a sneak-peek on youtube:

@salass00

a massive thanks for this. i've been wanting a proper terminal for *so* long. i sent a small donation your way as well. thank you for all your contributions to the amiga scene.

@kas1e

thanks for the port! it reminds me very much of 'montezuma's revenge' on my old C64.

@Rigo

always great to see continued development of this incredibly useful tool. thx!

@Daytona675x

same here. i love both games, and it's awesome to have such terrific packages available for sale. my son will be delighted, also. he's trying to discover BOH at the moment on my X5000.

@tekmage

AWESOME! would you mind taking a moment to send a note to a certain mailing list explaining in detail which adapter you used, where you bought it, and the steps you took in getting it to work with your system? many thanks in advance!

@thread

i'm looking for someone who has actually run a USB-to-Ethernet adapter on their AOS4 system with usbadm8511.device. i've found threads where people talked about them, but i don't think anyone can point to a piece of hardware that they've actually used in conjunction with the usbadm8511.device driver? anyone?

@orgin

it looks like the IRC server is down from my end. is anyone else having any issues connecting to irc.amigans.net?

heh. i know. i just really wish you'd reconsider the policy of overwriting the installed OS components.

-- eliyahu

@amigakit

excuse me, but that isn't your call to make. you replaced an OS component outright which behaves differently, and you're asking third-party developers to change their code instead?!

this is *precisely* the reason why replacing OS components can be a bad idea. offering alternatives, no problem. that let's the users and developers decide. but overwriting the official software willy-nilly and expecting everyone else to support that is a bit much.

i'm really thrilled A-EON is doing so much, and i don't want to make it sound like i'm against all of the wonderful things you guys do, but you aren't hyperion. you aren't the OS vendor. either everything you replace must be 100% backwards compatible, or don't overwrite OS components. IMO, of course....

@jabirulo

so i took your advice and installed on the local RAM disk. still getting a freeze on launch. here is what is in the amiphoto drawer, both on hard disk and the RAM disk:


and here is the version information on the binary:


dunno if this helps, but AFAIK the installation is fine. i got the archive directly from simon neumann at alinea because the serial numbers he kept giving me wouldn't be accepted as valid on his support site.

-- eliyahu

@jabirulo

what dependencies are there? i never needed to install anything extra on my pegasos 2 -- it worked fine there.

@Severin

thanks! i'm hoping there's something i'm missing as there's not really a good substitute for amiphoto.

-- eliyahu

@thread

does anyone here successfully run amiphoto from alinea computing on their X5000? no matter what i do, it freezes immediately on launch with no debug output on the serial bus. i'm not sure if the issue is with the X5000 itself, AOS4.1 FE, the filesystem, etc.

can anyone help here? any feedback is appreciated.

@tlosm

that statement is based on your own, actual experience, or you're just guessing?

@kas1e

for the prism2 driver i used a netgear MA311 and for the atheros 5000 driver i used a d-link dwl-g520. both worked great on my pegasos2 system. the netgear card even worked in my old SAM -- but both cause crashes on my X5000 when the wirelessmanager tool is run.
