In Poland it was very popular because it was bundled by the main Polish distributor with every Amiga 1200 Magic from Escom. But as far as I know there was also an English-language version released in Europe.
Hi, could you please implement in the next compilation the ability to type with ISO-latin 2 keyboard characters such as "ęóśżżń"? In the old version 1.23r5 this obviously worked.
I recorded a few minutes of video comparing version 1.23r5 with the latest Alpha version. As is often the case with early versions, not everything works as it should, especially since, just like in the initial releases for AROS, the engine is still several years old. Nevertheless, out of the 10 problematic pages, each shows some progress, to a greater or lesser extent.
On the channel Amiga Bez Sciemy, we celebrate the Amiga's fortieth birthday with forty interesting facts about this great computer. We believe that some of the trivia will surprise even the biggest connoisseurs of our favourite computer. The original film is in Polish, but there is an option to switch on an automatic English lector. You are welcome!!!
I don't know if you've ever heard of the game Catacombs Of Zarnok. Although I had an Amiga with PPC and BVision at the time, I had no idea about it and probably no one in Poland had heard of this project. The interview with the author is in English, so at least in the middle part of the film, you will avoid the not-so-perfect subtitles generated by AI.
At the beginning of the year, my friend lent me an AmigaOne A1222+ for testing. I took advantage of the opportunity to record two videos, the second of which I published on YT a few days ago. In it, I show several benchmarks, such as E-UAE, Hollywood or converting movies to FFMPEG, I compare it with the results of SAM 460. I also show which 3D applications work well and which do not. I encourage those interested in the subject to watch the video, the material is accompanied by English subtitles.
Update: AMIStore was crashing because I wasn't using a fixed IP, now it's working like a charm, this setting is preventing network related failures so far.
I am currently testing the A1222. I also had a problem with Amistore, swapping the driver from A-EON (A1222eth.device) with the one from Hyperion (p1022.eth.device) helped. Now Amistore also starts when DHCP is enabled
I would say that more or less everything has been said, to this I would add PTP for any eventual connections with cameras... the version in the Enhancer package will overwrite the original version of OS4, but in this case it is a real improvement that I recommend installing... if you need it of course!
It seems to me that the original from the system was able to copy both photos and videos. The version with Enhancer only photos, due to which I lost several videos from the camera when I formatted the memory card, being convinced that all files were copied. After this unpleasant experience, I reverted to the original version of PTP.
@Hans I think that there is nothing to set yourself up to compete with PC software. As a Youtuber, I also use PC software, of course, and I realize that if something for video editing was created on AmigaOS 4 by the strength of one man, it could not compete with Adobe or Corel programs.
Nevertheless, I would use it if only as an auxiliary tool, to create some short clips that are part of a longer movie edited on PC. Anyway, I do that now and sometimes insert Hollywood generated clips into my movies, even though this program is not a video editor after all.
I believe that the Amiga, which has a tradition in the video industry, has raised a lot of users who are into it, so the demand for such a video editor would be greater than, for example, ZitaFTP.
You need to think about creating not something that could compete with PC software, but something that could compete with free software on AmigaOS4. At the moment, probably the best video editor for OS4 is FFShop. It's not a very advanced tool, so the bar is hung low. If you were to create something similar (especially if you could introduce GPU video encoding and perhaps ExtMEM support), I would buy such a program for sure.
Threads like this one remind me that I wanted to write my own video editing software. Instead, I ended up being the graphics driver developer...
It would still be nice to write my own video editor. But, it's getting harder to find a gap in the market. There are already some very good editors available, both paid and free...
Just would there be enough computing power to encode longer HD and FullHD videos?
Here a question for you, since we have a driver that can decode video in players with the help of the GPU, would it be possible to reverse this process and encode video using the power of the graphics card, as is done in PC video editing programs?
Yes DOSBox works great, but it stops at the end era of MS-DOS so to 1997 - 1998. To go forward with PC emulation and have support for some newer software at a satisfactory speed we must have a JIT-enabled emulator that can run at least Windows 95 without problems.
