`06.Jan.2026` AMIGAbench (ANF)	AmiVision: Watching IPTV on 68k Amigas (update) Based on the same basic concept as AmiStreamRaider (amiga-news.de reported), AmiVision allows you to watch IPTV streams on the Amiga. The software package consists of two central components: a server that runs as a Docker container on x64 or ARM64 systems, and a client for Amiga 68k that runs on AmigaOS. AmiVision supports channel lists from eleven countries, a global channel search and the creation of a favourites list. Various transcoder profiles are available for playback, ranging from LowRes (180x100) to 720p. The system requirements for the Amiga client are a 68040 processor and AGA chipset. However, a faster system is recommended, such as a 68060, Vampire or PiStorm, ideally in combination with a graphics card. On the software side, AmigaOS 3.2, MUI 3.8, RxMUI ARexx, a TCP/IP stack (e.g. Roadshow, Miami or Genesis), nettools (curl, nc), the mpega.library and the RiVA MPEG Video Player (included in the archive) are required. A 16- or 24-bit RTG Workbench screen is necessary for window rendering, as well as an active internet connection. The server requires an x64 or arm64 CPU, at least 2 GB RAM, and Windows, Linux, or macOS with Docker Engine and Docker Compose installed. AmiVision can be downloaded in exchange for a voluntary contribution. Update: (22:00, 07.01.26, dr) The update fixes several minor bugs that caused the server configuration to not function on ARM systems. (nba) [News message: 06.

`06.Jan.2026`	DIY adapter: PS/2 input devices for Amiga CD32 Maciej Sees has presented two DIY hardware projects on GitHub that enable PS/2 input devices to be connected to the Amiga CD32. The DIY project PS/2 mouse to Amiga CD32 allows a PS/2 mouse to be connected to the CD32 and used, while the DIY project PS/2 keyboard to Amiga CD32 project lets you connect a PS/2 keyboard to the Amiga game console.

`05.Jan.2026` BitChronicles	Racing game: Tech demo 0.4.0 of Spirit of Eternal Racer Since May of last year, 'deuteros' has been working on his 2.5D racing game "Spirit of Eternal Racer" (video) and experimenting with the use of AI as programming support (see his developer diary). The game "combines retro charm with realistic driving physics and a smooth, fast-paced gaming experience". The target platform is an Amiga 1200 with PiStorm32-lite and a Raspberry Pi 3. The new demo version now offers two cars with different performance characteristics, a driving training session and five AI opponents. (dr) [News message: 05.
