OWB: Dowload and Play MP3 with MPlayer (script)

Today since OWB could not play an MP3 from the Amigaremix site I wanted to experiment with an external player, the only one that worked well in this circumstance was MPlayer, but I had problems with larger MP3s, MPlayer needs a high stack to play MP3 or some video formats.

On OWB if I'm not missing something it seems to not be able to give a stack to external tools, nor can it run tools with their icon and thus Tooltypes.

In the end I managed to give the stack to MPLayer creating a script and everything worked perfectly even running multiple MP3s, the MP3s played also remain available on files in RAM, see attached video

Updated the whole software park on AROS One x86, inserted also ArLan, Simple "self-made" Gopher client for AROS, created also the drawer and application icons in AROS One style

Successfully tested AROS AMP, the application lacks the features and settings of AmigaAMP but has no problems playing MP3s.

AROS AMP does not support AmigaAMP skins but something can be adapted.

AROS AMP has also been included in the upcoming release of AROS One.

New version of UnRAR 6.02 Multiplatform and Multilanguage for AROS x86 and AROS 68k.
This new version is based on UnRAR source code 6.0.7 and supports all RAR formats including version 5.

UnRAR 6.02 has been integrated into AROS One x86 and 68k, on AROS One x86 UnRAR is used by ZuneARC (see screenshot), successfully tested with multiple RAR versions without any problems.

I recommend this portal which also reviews AROS:

As we all know unlike PCs or other platforms the Amiga or AROS can be turned off quietly from the switch without worrying about causing damage, unless the system is not performing some write operation, in this case you risk a file corruption or an invalidation of the Hardisk or Floppy, which is rare if you use some Filesystems.

Well in this regard, given the request from a User AlexanderLUFC I have created a small App (script arexx) to turn off the system using the system command Shutdown, the icon can also be inserted in AmigaStart ready to use, see screenshot, of course in the case of AROS you must turn off the PC from the switch, unless there is a command on AROS that I do not know that allows you to turn off the PC, if someone is more informed or has any idea is welcome.

Test of the game Tom Raider with DOSBox on AROS One, good audio and video quality despite using a Virtual machine (VMware Player)

Here is the first of the new CoogleOS/Win11 inspired themes, naturally with AROS needs

If someone would like a particular theme can ask and maybe attach a comprehensive image.

Although my old ACER ASpire 5920 goes to VESA it is possible to run multiple "PaperBoxes" at the same time.

AROS One is installed in DualBoot with Win10

On AROS x86 there are programs to Viewer Fonts, but none of them works as Workbench to associate Font file icons, does anyone know any application that can do this?

I add that Multiview can be associated but on AROS the "font.datatypes" doesn't seem to exist, the Descriptor instead exists !

Directory Dopus 5 , displays fonts..


BTW, I just installed your distro to my 2nd acer aspire one d150 and everything works well, keep up the great work.
Does gcc comes alone with 68k distro? So I can compile my x86 programs natively.

[AMIGASYSTEM]

Yes but it's an internal command of Dopus5, of course it works only if the fonts files are arranged in "detail", if you set the icon view the font icons will not work anymore because the icons are associated to Multiview that will not find the font.datatype, I add that Dopus5 recognizes only the old native Amiga fonts.

Moreover my AROS One x86 and AROS One 68k use the Wanderer standard and Dopus5 is not installed.

Thanks for testing it, it's very nice to have an appreciation from an experienced user.

AROS One is improving day by day, many things have changed and improved, there are also many software updates, in a while I will have to distribute the new version.

Excuse my ignorance in this field, what do you mean by and what should I integrate in AROS One x86?

Ignore that i found the answer...

Continue the work on AROS One x86, completed some configurations of Dopus4 on "File Versions" most common system files and "Text Files" most common with or without extension, if someone is interested in particular files to view with particular tool just tell me, I attach a small video that shows what I mentioned.
