Module player: NostalgicPlayer 2.0.1 for Windows
NostalgicPlayer is a program for playing Amiga music modules under Windows, based on APlayer. The development of the player had been started by the author Thomas Neumann in 1993 on the Amiga, later continued on BeOS and now on Windows (amiga-news.de reported).

Version 2.0.1 mainly fixes bugs of the previous version:
  • Made Future Composer player more robust for empty modules.
  • If you have set up Windows to use more than 2 channels, NostalgicPlayer crashed when trying to play a module. Big thanks to Robert Konrad (RobDangerous) for the fix.
  • If the very first line is selected in the module list, then the page-down key didn't work.
  • In some rare situations the Piano visualizer crashes when fast-forwarding with an invalid argument error.
  • Some mp3 files was not recognized as so.
  • Fixed different bugs when double-clicking a file to open it in NostalgicPlayer.
An installation package can be found on Microsoft Store. (dr)

Video: "Browservice" under Linux and AmigaOS 4
Dave 'Skateman' Koelman, who among other things wrote the article Using two graphics cards in the AmigaOne X5000, explains in a video along with the accompanying video description how to set up Browservice - a web "proxy" server that allows surfing the internet on historical browsers - under Linux in order to then be able to use it with the Odyssey browser under AmigaOS 4. Comparable to AmiFox for AmigaOS 3 or AROS, Browservice converts the browser view window into images, which are then displayed by a JavaScript application on the client browser. (dr)

Hollywood: Support by editors SciTE and Notepad++ (Update)
Andreas Falkenhahn writes: The popular editors SciTE and Notepad++ now also support Hollywood by default.

SciTE supports Hollywood beginning with version 5.3.6 and Notepad++ supports Hollywood beginning with version 8.5.2. SciTE is especially interesting for Linux and macOS users, since on these platforms no Hollywood IDE is available.

Update: (16:50, 19.06.23, snx)
Our reader Michael Jurisch rectifies: By his Hollywood extension for Visual Studio Code there is an alternative editor available for Linux and macOS. (snx)

GoShell (Aminet link) runs on any Amiga with Kickstart 3.0+ and is freeware, but the author would appreciate a small donation. (dr)
