MovieSetter-Plugin for Hollywood
Press release: Airsoft Softwair has just released a very special Easter egg for all Hollywood users: A Hollywood plugin for videos created with Gold Disk's famous MovieSetter tool.

MovieSetter (photo) is renowned in the Amiga community because it is the tool which Eric W. Schwartz used to create his legendary clips like the Aerotoons (screenshot), Flip the Frog and Clarisse Cat, Sabrina, the intro of Team17's Superfrog (screenshot), the very funny Anti Lemmin' Demo (screenshot) and of course the Juggette clips.

Unfortunately, the original player written by Gold Disk bangs the hardware quite a lot and thus doesn't run on modern systems. But with the MovieSetter for Hollywood plugin you can now for the very first time experience Eric W. Schwartz's great animations in all their glory on your AmigaOS 4 or MorphOS system - fully PPC native with retargetable audio through AHI and RTG graphics as well! Only Hollywood makes it possible!

You can download the plugin from the official Hollywood portal at the title link. Thanks to Hollywood 5.0's cross-platform plugin system, versions for AmigaOS 3.x (Classic), AmigaOS 3.x (FPU), AmigaOS 4, MorphOS, WarpOS, AROS (Intel), Linux (PowerPC), Linux (Intel), Mac OS (PowerPC), Mac OS (Intel) and Windows are provided.

As a special convenience service we have also created a single archive that contains most of Eric's animations in just one file. Airsoft Softwair wishes all Amiga users a Happy Easter!

AmigaOS 4: Switcher3D 4.1
The AmigaOS-4-programm Switcher3D written by Tuomas Hokka shows all opened windows in a 3D view and changes between screens with an animation (screenshot).

Additional to new and reworked ARexx-commands, now Wazp3D is supported. Users of RadeonHD have to use this library instead of Warp3D and additionally have to set "Compositing2D" in the Wazp3D preferences.

Emulator: Preview to WinUAE 2.4.1
As usual the developers of the well-known Amiga emulator WinUAE has provided a short preview to the next version. WinUAE 2.4.1 is supposed to be published during the next two weeks and mainly will fix minor bugs. Additionally there will be minor improvememnts like a CPU-brake for the JIT-mode. New features and updates:
  • Fastest possible CPU mode (including JIT) throttle option (-10% to -90%)
  • Approximate CPU mode speed adjustment (-90% to 500%+). Replaces old CPU/Chipset adjustment
  • Internal display buffering system rewritten, PAL/NTSC vertical centering, even better screen positiong in programmed modes
  • Fullscreen (TV)/(Max) filter mode programmed mode and PAL/NTSC switching support
  • Custom Input Event autofire support
  • Switch to another monitor if multiple monitors with different resolutions and current RTG resolution is not supported by current monitor
  • CDFS statefile support implemented
  • Sound sync improved in approximate and cycle-exact modes

Bug fixes of version 2.4.0:
  • CDFS directory listing crashed if ACTION_EXAMINE_ALL packet was used
  • CDFS converted file names to lowercase even when CD included RockRidge or Joliet file names
  • Fake 60Hz didn't work
  • Software filters had very big slowdown in higher resolutions
  • D3D overlay mask scaling artifacts in some resolutions
  • D3D "CRT" filters had bad geometry
  • Automatic resize resized continuously in interlaced modes
  • Some USB joysticks had multiple buttons with same name

Bug fixes of older versions:
  • Automatic scale/center/resize didn't work in ECS SuperPlus mode
  • 68020 cycle-exact mode statefile reliability improved. (Random "CPU trace" errors)
  • 0.5M Chip RAM was detected as 1M in JIT mode

Self build: Floppy-Autoloader
Archieving about 5000 Amiga disks is no fun - therefore blogger 'Dweller' has been looking for a solution to automate the process.

He used a commercial disk duplicator (CopyPro 2000) and converted it to a floppy autoloader which loads one disk after another, creates an image file and finally takes a picture if it ejects the disk (video). (snx) (Translation: dr)
