Great news!  It is always good to see programs that we all want and need being developed for the Amiga and MorphOS.  I need to complete my installation of MorphOS for PuP and try this out.

has anyone tried it, how its divx performance with peg 2 and powerup amigas

Hey. Its very powerfull Working without problems. Latest mplayer for morphos also plays .flv files in right speed.

Ive even tried to run VLC and Mplayer at the same time without any slowdowns. Same .avi file. See it on next Amitopia TV show. Made a special program of it.

DivX performance is bad on PowerUp amigas with any player you use. There's no enough cpu power.

Even with a G-Rex and optimized players like Frogger.
