You have to consider that "Update 2" contains around 4-5 years worth of maintenance updates that have finally made it to the public. Some of the files contained in the update maybe very old from some years ago and now they are finally seeing the light of day.

The Enhancer Software Sound Datatype has had several recent updates and development is ongoing with some exciting new features to be added. It works in a very different way to other sound datatypes as it is structured for streaming and a few new concepts for future enhancement.

You can do this now with the current installer by specifying alternative install locations for the files. Some users have already done that. It is your choice.

You can also opt to install specific files and not install others. That is your choice too.

The Enhancer Software is flexible, you can take as much, or as little from it as you wish.

As a Hyperion beta tester, I understand your passion. However I will point out that this statement is a huge exaggeration. It maybe your personal view and a few others in your social circle which perpetuate the echo chamber, it does not make it everyone's view.

No code has been stolen and your public accusations are serious. Enhancer Software programmers are employed to create components from scratch and have no access to any third party code that does the same purpose. No copyright infringement has taken place.

As you maybe aware that there are several A-EON “third party” components that OS4.1 relies on with this versioning format, for example: MediaToolBox, ATIRadeon.chip. PCIgraphics.card, Ringhio

@billyfish

The Enhancer Software Install, although verbose, gives you individual choice to install as little or as much as you want. It is flexible.

The Enhancer Software Sound datatype is more advanced than the OS4.1 version so you may or may not want to upgrade to it. The choice again is yours.

Similarly, if you do want to install our Format utility or anything else just simply deselect them to miss them out during the installation process.

You should be aware that some users have an alternative view and want to install everything from the Enhancer Software.

This is not new concept: go to Aminet and you will find a plethora of third party direct replacement of system components.

I have spent five years coordinating the Enhancer Softwsre project and I will always ensure that the bugs are eliminated and users get regular updates. The quality of the software is advancing every week an I will continue to drive that forward.

The benefit of having our own software base is clear:

- we can release software when we want to and do not have to wait for others

- we can listen to users and add the features that they ask for

- we can coordinate our Classic and Next Generation software developments in one code base advancing both platforms in unison.

- our software is created from scratch by our own developers it may be different in functionality but it rapidly grows into powerful and useful software. This is a journey and we haven't yet reached our destination.


@redfox

The great thing about the Enhancer Software is customers have the choice to install it or not. It is up to the user if they want to install it over OS4.1 or not.

We will have a new update to Ringhio Notifications soon and this is a great part of the Enhancer Software. Expect updates to other A-EON software such as MediaToolBox in future too.

This machine was purchased from AOTL so that should be the first port of call for after-sales support.

Once we are back from Christmas holidays we can also help (we are taking some time off from work with our families).

@mr2

It will be very soon, we are fixing a few final things. Developers are on Christmas holidays so the bug fixes may slip into beginning of January. Some items have already been released through Updater tool in the meantime.

@Paul

Hi

I made some changes to the password function. Please try again. Thanks.

Today the following public releases have been made available to download on Updater utility:

Select.gadget v53.7

@Lio
@Trixie

I also enabled the download of Toolbar Gadget for Enhancer Software v1.x users - so even if you own the Plus, Standard, Special or Core versions the gadget will download for you on Updater.

I did not have immediate plans to release a Version 1.6 of the Enhancer Software because we want to migrate to v2.0 shortly. However I *may* consider it as a maintenance pack to bring v1.x in line with the Core Edition. I am undecided at the moment and it would depend on demand from users. In the interim every v1.x customer can download the gadgets found in Core without needing to register for Core.

Today the following public releases have been made available to download on Updater utility:

MultiEdit v1.13

@Raziel

RadeonRX and RadeonHD are both included in the Enhancer Software v2 package along with the important Warp3D Nova drivers to complement them.

@Kas1e

Updater is very easy to use- much better than a website. It downloads and installs the software (library/class/driver) from Amisphere.com into the correct directory on the user's hard drive and warns them of out of date versions they have on their hard drive. I have had a lot of feedback from users who love using it.

Sorry, I disagree with your assessment that offering everything from one website is easier for end-users: they have first identify they have an old version, open a browser on OS4 which is slow, go to the website, find the software, download and uncompress it and then install it manually. Updater does this in seconds.

Another benefit is that Updater utility is localised so it will display in the user's language of choice- much easier than maintaining a website in many languages.

Updater is run by many OS4 users every day so I can see by the traffic that it is very popular. Suggestions of improvements to it will always be listened to.
