MorphOS: AC3 S/PDIF playback on Pegasos
AC3Play is a small tool to test S/PDIF out with multichannel audio on Pegasos running MorphOS. It requires a digital amplifier which is capable of decoding AC3.
Analog out is muted while playing non-PCM data, only optical out is used.
Do not use it while playing back audio with AHI, it does not use AHI but
accesses the audio hardware directly.

- Fixed a bug which caused crashes when trying to step between images at the same time as when the info line or mouse was blanked
- Selecting only a directory in the file requester didn't work
- Fixed problem with buffered events, which made the image zoom/rotation
slower and less responsive

individual Computers: EU business continues / Common label with E3B
Press release - The best news at the beginning: E3B and individual Computers continue selling hardware in the EU. We want to thank everyone who sent us eMails with suggestions, mostly trying to circumvent the new law, but also with information on how to start a company in another country. Unfortunately, all this doesn't help, because the law also applies to companies outside Germany who want to sell their products in Germany.
To fully comply with the law, E3B and individual Computers founded the label "ConBridge" which is now registered with the Stiftung EAR, despite legal problems that are not fully resolved. Read more on the common webseite www.conbridge.de (German language only).
New advertising partner
We have supported the "Amiga plus" magazine for a long time
with our adverts. Since the Amiga plus is not available any more, we have been looking for a new magazine with the same high quality of articles. What we found is the Austrian magazine Lotek 64: It's made by enthousiastic hobbyists, and stands any comparison with high-standard professional journals. You can either read the magazine online for free, or you can make a donation and have the mag sent to you in printed form. The magazine is in German language only.
For the current december-issue we want to point out an article by Dr. Rainer Buchty, which deals with the technology of the C64-DTV2. The Commodore 64 in a joystick is also known as "PAL-DTV", and is derived from the C-One. However, individual Computers was not involved in the DTV project, so our high production standards were not applied. The article describes how you can correct the low (nearly unreadable) colour contrast with a little skill and a soldering iron. (snx)

IRC client: WookieChat 1.9.2
Since today, WookieChat 1.9.2 is available. This minor release fixes an important bug in the OS3 version that prevented multiple tabs from working correctly. It was locking up when switching between tabs, or when one closed a tab. The authors thanks 'foody' for reporting this bug. The biggest change in the new release is alias support.
Changes in version 1.9.2:
- Incoming file transfers with spaces in the filename is accepted now
- Pause while selecting text fixed
- Tab switching works properly under OS3 now
- Outgoing /notice and /msg appear in the currently viewed tab again
- Split up the Incoming and Outgoing DCC File Transfers Window into two separate windows, to take up less space when not needed.
- No longer creates empty logs (0 bytes) when logging is disabled
- If you start a line with "//" it sends that text normally. It wont try to use it as a command anymore.
- /join no longer requires a '#' preceeding the channel name
- Added basic command alias support. e.g. /j can replace /join
- Added a /say command to speak in the current tab. Could be useful in conjunction with an alias
- Tabs now have a black square in them to show theres been no activity, and have been made more compact
- Tabs sit in a virtual group now, so that the window isnt forced to be as large as the amount of tabs you have open

Genesi grants licenses to ODM Technologies
San Antonio, Texas - 16 December 2005 - Genesi has licensed ODM Technologies Inc. to
produce the EFIKA design with the Pegasos HAL/OF. The license agreement includes a
provision for a minimum production quantity of 50,000 units. The EFIKA board is to be the foundation
for number of ODM products. The centerpiece to the EFIKA is the Freescale MPC5200
SoC (system on a chip).
ODM Technologies' CTO Cliff Blodget stated: "We are pleased to have concluded this Agreement with Genesi.
Our objective is to leverage the extensive library of software supported by the Pegasos HAL/OF.
We will develop to the Pegasos HAL/OF and not the hardware directly. The EFIKA is a starting
point for us and we can push ahead immediately with application development using Genesi's
Open Desktop Workstation as we prepare to ramp up for production."
The Pegasos HAL/OF is a flexible and scalable hardware abstraction layer for PowerPC
driven devices and IEEE 1275 compliant Open Firmware implementation. The Pegasos HAL/OF
can support a wide range of devices, ranging from Smart Phones to SMP server blades.
Pegasos HAL/OF-supported base hardware will run all Pegasos HAL/OF-supported
software and activate all Pegasos HAL/OF-supported peripherals.
The Pegasos HAL/OF increases speed to market and provides extensive operating system
and application support based on free open and closed source software.

new product by individual Computers: Keyrah
Keyrah makes keyboards of classic computers available to new computers. The board fits the case of a C64, VIC-20, C128, C-16 or Amiga 1200, and turns the computer into a USB keyboard. Keyrah gives new life to defective computers, or computers that have been moved to a different case, because the mainboard is no longer needed. In addition to that, two digital joysticks can be connected that will act as additional keys (for example cursor keys). The joystick ports show a special strength of Keyrah: The high data transfer speed.
We followed the discussion about a newly produced USB-version of a classic joystick with great interest. Many customers have judged this joystick as unusable, because the reaction to any movement is too inert, thus making games unplayable. For the full gaming fun, Keyrah transfers it's data ten times faster than the USB version of that joystick!
As a special titbit for fans of the C64, we're using a switch that's almost identical to the one of the original computer. The only difference (not noticable to the user) is that it's lead-free, and therefore RoHS-conform. It switches between two keymaps that are either adjusted to the daily use under Windows, or especially for emulators like Vice and Amiga Forever.
Keyrah has been successfully tested with all common operating systems like Linux, Amiga OS, Mac OS and Windows. It works on desktop and laptop computers, but also on the X-Box. Keyrah is a standard USB human interface device, so proper function is also ensured with systems that are not mentioned here.
Keyrah will be available in february 2006, the price will be about 30,- EUR. The exact scope of delivery is not yet decided, we're investigating the possibilty to include a USB cable and tools for this price, so we can deliver a package that our customers are used to: Ready to go without additional equuipment.
