amiga-news.de - New public beta of AmigaAmp

Thomas Wenzel on ANF New public beta of AmigaAmp
Just in time for the end of the WoA'2000 there's a new version of AmigaAmp. Originally Thomas Wenzel had planned to release the final version 2.8 these days. But there are two features he didn't want to psh back for later releases:

MAS-Player Support
The MAS-Player is an external MPEG-audio-decoder for the parallel port and can be used with EVERY Amiga. The support in AmigaAmp exists in the form of a new driver system developed by Paul Qureshi together with Dirk Conrad and Thomas Wenzel. With the combination AmigaAMP and MAS-Player it is possible to play MP3-files in full quality even on 68030 Amigas. Dirk himself offers a special highly optimised software which makes playback of MP3 even on a 68000. The MAS-Player is distributed by Eternity (Martin Wolf).

Shoutcast Streaming
Shoutcast is a protocol for live broadcastings of radio transmissions via the internet. >From the today released version on AmigaAMP doesn't need an external program for receiving such transmissions. The necessary protocol is directly integrated.

The two named features are still in development and don't run 100% stable. For a first impression it is enough though. The new version of AmigaAMP is downloadable from www.amigaamp.de.
