AmigaOS 4: MediaVault 1.4.3 (update)
MediaVault is an open source application for AmigaOS 4 which can be used to discover online radio stations and, since Version 1.4.0, also to listen to podcasts. An external player like AmigaAmp and the jansson.library v2.12.1 are required. By releasing the new version 1.4.2, the author George Sokianos has adapted his program to the changed api so searching for radio stations is working again.
Update: (12:43, 21.10.21, dr)
Meanwhile version 1.4.3 is available which fixes some bugs and was compiled with openssl to 1.1.1l.

Game announcement: 'Balloons' for all Amiga systems
Achim Kern is not only continuously working on his 'SmartHome' project for automating one's own four walls (amiga-news.de reported), but also uses the multimedia-oriented programming language Hollywood used for this purpose to develop games such as Mars Tank Attack.
In his latest game project, 'Balloons', those balloons have to be shot at a fair, with the difficulty increasing from level to level: with more balloons, shorter time and a limited number of shots. Likewise, in higher levels, certain sequences are given, such as three blue, two red, four green balloons. This sounds simple, but the player has to remember this order...If you have further ideas for levels, please contact Achim Kern. The screenshots kindly provided by the author should give a first impression. The game will be available for free for all platforms supported by Hollywood Player and is planned for the end of the year.
