v2.1.4 - Introducing Wozamp!

Wozamp is a simple network music player for the Apple II. It can play music files from FTP, and stream webradios.

This release changes the surl-server protocol again, to version 11.

v2.0.1 - Video streaming

This release has one change.

• Mastodon for Apple II: Stream videos from your timeline!

Note: The proxy protocol changed (new version: 10) and the proxy image has to be updated as well. It is also faster than previously.

v1.14.0 - SPEEEEEEED

Mostly performance upgrades in this release.

• Quicktake for Apple II : The Quicktake 100 decoder now takes 50 seconds to decode a picture. The Quicktake 200 decoder gets a boost (from 6'40 to 4'40), and the Quicktake 150 decoder gets a bit of performance improvement, and further image processing (scaling, dithering) is faster by about 33% too.
• Mastodon for Apple II : the program now talks with the proxy at 115200bps, an 8-fold improvement that is especially useful when viewing images.
• STP, the FTP-over-serial client, gets the same improvement.

Note: This release requires a surl-server upgrade to Protocol 8. In case of a deb-based installation, be sure to update the speed setting in /etc/a2tools/tty.conf to baudrate: 115200.

Note 2: The unenhanced-Apple-II Mastodon client can also benefit from this speed upgrade. For Apple ][e Super Serial Cards, a jumper configuration change may be necessary on the card (SW1: 1111111 ; SW2: 1111010). If this is impractical, you can also reconfigure the Mastodon client when it fails to reach the proxy, using the C key.

General:

• Size optimisations

Mastodon:

• Fixes for non-enhanced Apple II
• Add lower-casing of outgoing toots for non-enhanced Apple II

Note: The serial protocol changed, and for programs using it (Mastodon, STP, Telnet) the proxy must be updated.
