Thanks, Nbache. The AmiWest team would love a nomation in the other catagory. Why not?

Great news, MightMax. Thank you for that!

@all

I can't get Term to run on my X5000. I've downloaded the fonts and tried enabling the pub screen in the tool types. When I launch it, the mouse movements are sluggish until the upload icon shows up on the workbench. Then, the mouse movements are regular, but programs don't start, and Amidock hangs.

Thanks!
Bill

Would it make sense to allow an override of VENDOR and PRODUCT fields via ENV at the stack level? I'm thinking of the future, so users can try to connect existing drivers to new HW if the code is not open.

Thanks,
Bill Borsari

I found one of my devices is:

- Class 0x00/0x00 device (UsbRawFunction: 0x53B60020)
Hub : 0x6ff90dc0 port 3 (port path 1/1/3)
Speed : Full (12Mb/s) [1]
Status : available / active
Locks : 1/2 (Usr/Sys)
Device Descriptor:
.dd_USBVer: 0x0110
.dd_Class: 0x00
.dd_Subclass: 0x00
.dd_Protocol: 0x00
.dd_MaxPacketSize0: 0x40
.dd_VendorID: 0x0557

The previously published beta is not binding to this device.

I grabbed term 4.8, renamed the fonts due and I get the upload icon but no window.

Any have tips to get it working?

I did notice that version 4.7 is on Aminet with full source....

Cheers,

iManufacturer 1 FTDI
iProduct 2 FT232R USB UART

I'll see if I can dig out some more.

ImageFX has a tool called AutoFX (located under the "hook" button.

It does not work 100% under AmigaOS 4 but AmigaOS 3 it's rock solid.

You navigate to your files on the left side of the window, use the add or insert button on the upper right (it is designed for creating frame based animations), then select the operations on the lower right. The default operation is "load.ifx" but you can chain things together like, resize, recolor, apply effects, etc. Once done you add the saver for the file format you want. If you pick PNG or JPG it will save single files. If you chose on of the animation formats will it save them as a single animation file.

It's a little clunkly but if you practice with it a bit it becomes very powerful.

Fantastic! I like the look of the 25 you shared.

Hi Friends,

I'm looking at the wonderful OS4Depot and our extensive software collection. Unfortunately, many of those programs are pretty old and could be updated. While I'm not offering to do that work, I would be interested in seeing what people use daily or weekly.

I was looking at my system. I most often run:

Odyssey
rVNCd
ZitaFTP
SMB2FS
MediaVault
eGame
iGame
AmIRC
AmiFIG
Emotion
MPlayer
FFMplayer
AmigaAMP
IFS Screenblanker

What do you run?

Cheers,

Hey Guys,

AmigaOS 4 has an "Extended Memory" system, which you can read about it here: https://wiki.amigaos.net/wiki/Exec_Extended_Memory.

I know SketchBlock supports that system as of version 3.1.

Cheers,
Bill

@K-L

This is what I do as well.

I would love to see two things:

1) ability to double click an icon and have it mount
2) ability to use right click or docky or other GUI tool to cleanly remove the disk

I took a look at MountISO for OS 3 but did not get far with it.

Cheers,
Bill "tekmage" Borsari

I see the value of both! While timelines make a lot of sence when your going second by second, but the tile view is more useful when your looking at the overall project.

For OS 4, it would be great if we had smaller programs focused on each of the areas. Like stand alone media organizer, clipper, audio editor, and video stitcher.

VideoClipper has the clipper part solved.

A stitcher which could connect video files, images, text, audio overlay, with transtions seams to be the tool folks are asking for here.

@noXLar

I did!

Tremendous work ktadd. I was able to chop up a video and add your video overlay.

The simple tutorial you provided definitly helped understand how to use it...

Few days ago I was using DeVinci Resolve and it took me a min to figure out the tabs at the botton for the different roles, cut, edit, etc.

ktadd, have you looked at the Video Toaster Flyer software? Your using a vertical list to manage your clip arrangement, the flyer used "crutons" with are basically icons to represent video, audios, FX, and images, that can be arranged and ordered horizonatally.

When you want to "cut" a video it opens a separate window which provides the play, start frame, end frame selector.

The same types if functions you've implemented but in a separate window.

Cheers,
Bill

One thing that might work is to use FFMPEG to reduce your clips down to a low rez, build your edits and cuts then apply them to the full size files for final rendering.

Might make it tolerable to do editing an X5000.

Cheers,
Bill

Wow!!!

Hey folks,

HunuPPC just dropped wipEout Rewrite Enhanced Fantômas Edition AmigaOS 4.1 onto OS4Depot.

It's fantastic. I played it at AmiWest, and now I'm back home again. It's worth glancing at the documents before jumping in so it's easy to pick up.

Thank you, HunuPPC!

Bill "tekmage" Borsari

PS Don't miss out on the Fantômas content by donating.

Great new feature! I am looking forward to seeing more Amigans join us on IRC.

Cheers,
Bill "tekmage" Borari

Looks great. Let us know when it's available for purchase!

Cheers,
Bill "tekmage" Borsari

@newton

That has not been my experience. On my X5000 large sites might not render correctly but generally it does not crash.

Can you give an example site?
