Thank you for supporting us with ideas and nice comments. We hope to see an active community around AMC..... fell free to create own PlugIns and Themes.... Theming is easy.....

For now we have german, english and italian locale files. Everyone is invited to translate those catalogs!

The AmigaOS Version will follow shortly and than the MorphOS Version.

Have a nice day!

PS:
Before people ask again : D
AMC is called A M C
If you "like" called it Amiga Media Center, AROS Media Center, Any Media Center, Ares Media Center.......
BUt if you say just AMC it is correct. ; )

 

But Why AMC Light, will there be a heavier version  ?

The video hints at a paid for system, if so then that will be interesting! A commercial AROS based media centre!

Excellent work Pascale (and Allannon)!

Great to see this getting its first release (I eagerly await the MorphOS version :-D ).

PS - I see that the price on the website is "from E29.95". Does the price just depend on whether the software is downloaded or shipped on CD?

Regards



Rich

Where's the download link? The website still offers only 0.0.2R8.

AMC v1.1 released
registered users can reinstall and register again or ask for an updated Activation PlugIn (which will include all needed patches) without reinstalling AMC.

Change log:
# Included missing translations in the key bindings section
# Fixed a bug in the key bindings section related to wrong translations
# Fixed a bug that was preventing to execute mplayer and  playcdda when in the path was present names with spaces
# Added the possibility to move around the AMC screen, to center again in the middle of your monitor just press the mid mouse button. Be aware that  AMC will try to get the focus so this option is usefull only to look what's happening behind the AMC screen.
