`19.Jan.2016` Amiga Future (Webseite)	Renaming picture files: Exutil 0.5 The MUI-based Hollywood programm Exutil written by Ulrich Beckers renames picture files using their date of creation which is saved in the EXIF-information or the date of creation of the file. Version 0.5 is available for all Amiga systems. Now a "common file name part can get placed after date & time information". A progress bar was also added. (snx) (Translation: dr) [News message: 19.

`19.Jan.2016` Floppy (Kommentar)	AROS: Another update to Odyssey 1.25 beta Three days ago, Krzysztof 'Deadwood' Śmiechowicz has released an update of the beta version of Odyssey 1.25 which starts fixing the problems of the excessive memory consumption. Changes: Fixed messages console to display messages Made aligned allocation not take additional memory Made memory allocator work better with fragmented memory Fixed major memory leak where Frames were not released together with their JS data - memory no longer continously consumed while browsing Fixed a number of small memory leaks Implemented a more agreesive memory freeing strategy which keeps allocated memory as low as possible (snx) (Translation: dr) [News message: 19.

`18.Jan.2016` Thorsten Schölzel (ANF)	Toni Wilen is working on WinUAE adaptions for AmigaOS 4 The WinUAE programmer Toni Wilen currently is working on an improved integration of AmigaOS 4 in WinUAE. The goal is to adapt as many parts as possible of the native infrastructure (uaehf.device, UAEGFX) provided by the emulator to the PPC operating system - and to give up slower emulation of real hardware e.g. the SCSI-controller of the Cyberstorm, the Picasso 4 graphic board or network and sound cards which were needed up to now. A first and early trial version Wilen now has made available. It is possible to include directories as harddrives and HDF-images are supported. Some more details: Currently supported UAE devices: Directory harddrives uaehf.device (hardfiles). HD_SCSICMD is NOT supported yet Supported but not tested: uae.resource Some "uaelib" functions Not yet supported (lots more work needed): uaegfx bsdsocket.library uaenative.library clipboard sharing uaescsi.device uaenet.device virtual mouse driver on the fly directory harddrive changes And everything else that was not mentioned In order to enable the trap system, in the configuration file the line "uaeboard=full+indirect" has to be added. The new features has not been completely optimised and therefore are not faster than the previous SCSI-emulation. Additionally a computer with at least three processor cores is recommended. Toni Wilen emphasised that he himself is not intersted in an improved PPC-emulation and that therefore donations for this project would be the greatest motivation. If you are interested in further adaptions of WinUAE to AmigaOS 4, then a donation via Paypal is very welcome. Hint of the editorial staff: So far Wilen has not said anything about the limitation of the RAM - AmigaOS 4 currently recognizes maximal 128 MB RAM under UAE. In theory this limitation could be raised to 256 MB, if a CyberstormPPC would not have been emulated (due to the SCSI-controller) and the emulator could present itself as BlizzardPPC .
