`03.Oct.2022` Hollwood-Forum	Hollwood application: Lyrics Jukebox Ralf Gruner has written Hollywood, a music player that was originally intended to be the basis for a built-in device for historical jukebox wallboxes. As the author writes, the program was originally only supposed to play music and text, and control would have been via the buttons on a wallbox. Instead, it now has a full GUI that is optimized for small touchscreens, but also works with large screens. The GUI elements are built entirely with Hollywood. The program displays synchronized lyrics in parallel with the music playback, which must be in LRC format. Besides playing playlists or shuffling the files, it can also be used in jukebox style, offering the user the tracks in the form of jukebox title strips. The author actually released the program only for Linux and Windows, but added implementations for AmigaOS 3, 4, MOrphOS and AROS on request. These then however untested. The Hollywood plugins Avcodec and Svgimage are required. Screenshots and more info are available under the title link.

`02.Oct.2022`	AmigaOS 4: "Otto Matic" and "Billy Frontier" ported Roman 'kas1e' Kargin has ported two other games to AmigaOS 4: Pangea Software's "Otto Matic" (YouTube video) was first released for Mac OS 9 and X in 2001 and was included with some Mac models of that time. Kargin further writes about it: "The game was eventually ported to 32-bit Intel Macs, but it stopped working when macOS 10.15 discontinued 32-bit support. Pangea Software allowed Iliyas Jorio to update the original game to keep it running on today's major desktop platforms. This update aims to be faithful to the original. Elements of the presentation and handling were slightly updated. AmigaOS 4 port is based on Jorio's work and compiled with GCC 11.3.0 and latest GL4ES and SDL2. Video recorded on X5000 with RadeonRX 560 and all latest beta components." "Billy Frontier" is also from Pangea Software and is an arcade-style action game with a "cowboys in space" theme (YouTube video). The player fights in duels, shootouts and brawls. The game was released in 2003 for PowerPC Macs, the port to AmigaOS 4 is also based on Iliyas Jorio's work. Both games can be downloaded from OS4Depot.

`01.Oct.2022`	DIY project: ATX power adapter for Amiga 500 tower project 'wiretap-retro' has developed an adapter for its Amiga-500 tower project, which is attached to the motherboard or another suitable place in the case via two spacers. It allows the connection of a standard ATX power supply and provides a 4-pin molex connector (for the Amiga 500 power connector) and 3 standard fan connectors for 12V fans. The project is open source and can be modified as desired. (dr) [News message: 01. Oct. 2022, 06:49] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]
