AmigaOS 4: commercial media player "Emotion" released
Press release: We are very happy inform you that that the first release of the Emotion media player is finished and will be released immediately! Currently AmiStore and Alinea Computer are setting up their stores with data provided from us, the software should be available through them when you read this.

What is Emotion?

Emotion is a powerful multimedia player specially developed for AmigaOS 4. The easy-to-use interface, deliberate limitation to required basic functions, as well as optimization on operating system functions, makes Emotion to a software that integrates perfectly into the current AmigaOS.

The use of FFmpeg as a subsystem for video and audio decoding (through AmigaOS specific shared libraries) allows emotion to access proven and powerful technologies in the background. Due to the Reaction based interface in combination with optimized operating system functions and FFmpeg as a decoder, Emotion understands itself as its own interpretation of a multimedia player which is not just a port of existing open source projects but tries to connect tried and tested technologies with the ecosystem of AmigaOS.

Emotion looks like AmigaOS software, works like AmigaOS software… it is AmigaOS software!
