Hollywood: JPEG 2000 plugin released
Press release: Airsoft Softwair has just released a new plugin for Hollywood 5: Infinity. This plugin enables all Hollywood scripts to load and save images in the JPEG 2000 format.

JPEG 2000 is the successor to the popular JPEG format and offers multiple advantages over its predecessor including lossless compression and the possibility to store images with alpha channels.

Additionally, when a JPEG 2000 plugin is available and you compile executables for Mac OS X, Hollywood will be able to create Mac OS X icons in the resolutions 256x256 and 512x512 as well because these images are encoded using JPEG 2000 bitstreams.

You can download the plugin from the official Hollywood portal. Thanks to Hollywood 5's cross-platform plugin system versions for AmigaOS 3.x, AmigaOS 3.x (FPU), AmigaOS 4, MorphOS, WarpOS, AROS (Intel), Linux (PowerPC), Linux (Intel), Mac OS X (PowerPC), Mac OS X (Intel), Windows and Google's Android platform are provided.

AROS: 68k-Distribution AROS Vision 1.5.9
Olaf Schönweiß has updated his AROS/68k-distribution which is a mix of AROS and AmigaOS software (screenshot, English-language tutorial).

In version 1.5.9 the complete support for CD (automounting of CDs and playing music-CDs with MUI CD Player) was added. Videos can be played with FFplay or MPlayer; a CD³²-emulation is still missing. Additionally FAT95, TwinVNC, Mr. Beanbag as well as audio and backup programs have been completed and the Amistart menu upgraded. (snx) (Translation: dr)

Replacement emblem for Amiga1200 cases

The new emblem has the same size as the original one but apart from that is different and has only the "AMIGA 1200"-logo. As material frosted detail or frosted ultra detail is recommended. (snx) (Translation: dr)

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.

Direct download: OSDLauncher.lha (11,3 MB) (cg) (Translation: dr)
