Development: Blade MP3 Library 1.0
With the Blade MP3 Library you can create MP3 files within a program without the need to use the command line or the command Execute() to use an external MP3 encoder.
The library can handle RAW data (8 or 16 Bit; 32000 Hz, 44100 Hz or 48000 Hz; mono or stereo). These can be converted into a mono or stereo MP3 file with a bitrate of 32 - 320 kBits. To handle the data buffers are made available in a structure. All created MP3 files get an ID3 v1.1 tag.
System requirements: AmigaOS 2.x, MC68020 processor with MC68881-FPU

AmigaOS 4: archiver GUI cranu 0.5
Cranu is a graphical user interface for AmigaOS 4 to easily create LhA, LZX, Zip, TGZ or Tar.bz2 archives (screenshot). By using so called profiles you can add support for further archive formats. New in version 0.5:

click on Cranu's icon and it'll run with those selected files listed
ready to archive. It also means you can drag icons onto Cranu's icon in
AmiDock and it'll pop up with those files listed and ready to archive.

- Includes italian, french and german translations

IRC client: Wookiechat 2.4.1 beta 9
James Carroll has published a new beta version of his MUI-based IRC client Wookiechat for AmigaOS 3/4. Changes in beta 9:
- Beta 8: Made the "disable server tabs" option less buggy
- Beta 8: Included updated catalogs for svenska,deutsch,norsk,polski,hungarian
- Beta 9: Bugfix: Launching WookieChat before Roadshow was ready was preventing Wookie from working properly. I was forgetting to try reopening the bsdsocket.library interface when trying to connect
- Beta9: Bugfix: No more garbage characters bug when using cursor up/down to scroll through your input history. (used to happen at the end)
- Beta 9: Type /playing or /tunenet to show whats playing in TuneNet. It's not that useful a feature really.. I added it by request. It's something nice to play with, just for shits 'n giggles
- Beta 9: Bugfixed the "file comment" code for recieved files. It works on SFS partitions now (i dont think it liked OS3 either, but it should work now)
- Beta 9: All catalogs except spanish are up to date again
- Beta 9: Made the chat history buffer smaller (less wasted space), and increased the maximum outgoing buffer a little

Sound card: Prelude AHI driver v6
Thomas Wenzel has published version 6 of the AHI driver for the Zorro sound card Prelude. Changes in v6:
- Bugfix: It could happen that an application displayed crazy character garbage instead of input or output names.
- Code cleared: From the beginning of the development of the driver resources have been used which are no longer required.
Because the main server of Aminet currently works only with restrictions the driver is only available under the title link.
Important: The 24-bit modi of this driver make only sense in connection with the "Arpeggiator" digital-SPDIF modul for the Prelude and only then if there is appropriate 24-bit equipment. For the analog part or for normal CD-player the 24-bit modi will not supply a better sound than the 16-bit.
