A600GS & A1200NG / Re: Old flaws, new hickups and maybe some bugs (?)
« Last post by SkulleateR on March 17, 2026, 11:02:18 PM »

Blue tooth is my main way of using audio with the A600GS and apart from an occasional crackle it seems to work OK here. Bluetooth audio in general ain't great thou and prone to interference.

Well, I use BT Audio on all other systems (also on SoCs) without problems, why is this a problem on this board then ?

I work on dark screens all the time, can't even find the white half the time, unfortunately there is no other way to stop the issue at present, and the leak  is far more interfering than the white dot ...
Of course, but it´s still annoying  ;D Guess there are people more affected by it then you are  :)

Working on it. AHI performance  is testing very well under it, amongst other things....

Looking forward to that milestone, thanks for the heads up  8)

Not seen this problem any particular site that causes it? Where do you see the error message.? THis error might indicate a windo open request of somekind I need to intercept.

No, it happens on random occasions, mostly after downloading some files and already closed AmiBrowser ... I will reproduce it the next days and make some screenshots ...

A600GS & A1200NG / Re: Migration to Amiberry 8.0.0

As far as I know A600gs, and probably A1200ng  as well uses Amiberry-lite which is still at version 5.x
Also I suspect they use the 32 bit version, and it looks looks like Amiberry 8 is targeted at 64 bit only.

Testing the first enemies - time to wipe out some robots!
https://drive.proton.me/urls/VVFRQQD1Y8#7o3xEZn32M61

I've started testing the first robot enemies in the game.
It's that glorious phase where things explode, systems break, and I figure out what actually works.

I'm developing this solo, but trust me - I'm ready to wipe out some robots and push these tests to the limit.

Been a bit distracted.

AGA still was giving me issues, spent all Saturday trying to fix issue. Finally got the issue I kept hitting 14 years ago sorted. AGA now works 100% perfect.

I then ended up getting side tracked. Spent all day Sunday implementing MP3 player for menu. Basically as we have paula on ME CPU. When in menu, the thread keeps running the sound output, buffering no audio. So as its still running, I thought, why not switch the inputs while in menu to ME MP3 hardware decoder. Got all code sorted, however not working. Ended up debugging til very late. As I was about to shut down PC, I found out, we have to start a few kernel modules on PSP, namely the one that deals with ME MP3 play back.

Well at 2am this morning, finally got MP3 playback working.
Its still rough around the edges. It seems to play ok, through the paula output stuff. Just have a spike around every 2 secs of playback, nothing major. Needs buffer tweaks.

So now, when pspuae runs. Paula does all the amiga sound. You enter menu, then it internally switches from paula to ME Hardware MP3 decoder. Exit menu, it switches back to paula. Its working really well.

Once, I have it perfect, will switch back to CPU, blitter and copper stuff. This sidetrack was very frustrating, as there are loads of different pspsdk's with different headers. So it made it challenging, but fun.

Fun side note, ME CPU also does different formats. So could tweak it to accept, WAV, ATRAC3, WMA. Could even use it to play videos in the background of menu.

A600GS & A1200NG / Migration to Amiberry 8.0.0

With the release of Amiberry 8.0.0, how soon will we see a transition from the current build on the 600GS/1200NG to this new version?

- CTRL-A-A quits out of Amibench instead of doing a reset after AmiBrowser has been used

This is fixed for me, and I was sure the fix was public by now. The only quirk is that it is still the same instance of ArmCEF running in the background as libcef only allows the cef system to be initialised once for any program using it. 99% of the time this is no issue.

For best results shutdown or reboot via the AmiBench Menu->AmiBench->Reboot entry as this runs a shutdown script that cleans up instances of YAM and AmiBrowser.

- Bluetooth sound is pain in the a**, either not working at all or laggy and choppy, even changing quality every 3 seconds (tested with 2 pairs of speakers and a (not cheap) headset)

the memory overflow workaround (white dot) is really annoyng while working with/on mainly dark screens

- while using a wb window and list the files as names you get artifacts of the outlined white font (see screenshot)

Yes on my todo list to fix.

- the System Monitor is constantly triggering infos in the background, which causes slowdowns while file transfer, not very high but noticable, maybe change the update interval ?

These ENVGUAGE entries are accidental leftover from the eariler version desgned to work with the AK Sensor package, I've removed them from the icon now. Leaving one disabled as an example. I've also added an extra tooltype ENVATTEMPTS that limits the number of tries to read the variable.

Note the UPDATE tooltype sets the number of seconds between updates for the filesystem and other noon CPU / TEMP gauges.   And the ENVGUAGE syntax allow for the same KEYWORD to be used to set a separate rate for any given ENVGUAGE.

- after using AmiBrowser for downloading, sometimes I get an error about not getting a response from server even if the internet connection is ok, causing Amibench to lock up and/or not showing mouse pointer any more

- will there be an update to Amiberry in the near future since at 5.8.10, we already get a performance boost for some problematic games like Jim Powers ? We already got 5.9.x out there and A600GS is still on 5.8.7  :(

Working on it. AHI performance  is testing very well under it, amongst other things....

Nice! :D

I'll see if that's also possible on Amiga!

I've tried it a bit on linux and it displays images. formatting is gone, like in text. but it looks quite good, fast and stable.
you run it with: links2 -g
(original links has only text mode)
youtube doesn't work, google too, displays that its not suuported, but duckduckgo works nice.
javascript doesn't seem to work.
I'll try to attach few examples.
