AmigaOS 4: OSDLauncher 0.3.0 (beta)
"OSDLauncher" is a management tool for On Screen Displays. Instead of directly controlling multimedia functions like "louder", "quieter" or "pause" with global hotkeys, at first OSDLauncher is started.
With the help of graphics the tool then shows the current status (volume, start/stop etc.) and then transmits the command via ARexx to the multimedia application (screenshot, Youtube video).
OSDLauncher requires AllKey,
Mixer, Eject.Os4 and
MUI_Calc. The author explained in the readme the installation and points out the beta status of the current version.
