VLC4iPhone v0.9.5 WIP (iPhone Application)

ZodTTD has posted some work in progress news about his VLC port to Playstation Portable.

Let us quote him:

Hello everyone,

ZodTTD here. I have been hard at work on fixing some tough bugs and various issues with my port and frontend of the VLC media player to the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch. The last of the major issues I had have been fixed, and I’ve fixed MANY bugs and even added a feature or two!

Here’s a quick list of changes in vlc4iphone v0.9.5:
– Added a streaming media feature to vlc4iphone, so movies and audio can be streamed via HTTP and RTSP!
– Added full support (sound + video decoding) for the following video formats:
FLV (Flash Video) XviD (DivX) MP4 (MPEG4) MOV (Quicktime)
H264 (Hi Def) 3GP (Mobile movies)
– Added video playback of WMV movies.
– Added audio playback of OGG in addition to FLAC, MP3, MP2, etc.
– Added a fast forward and rewind feature for videos.
– Fixed up and improved file browsing within the vlc4iphone GUI.
– Fixed many bugs concerning stability.

With vlc4iphone you can download files from Safari on your iPhone or iPod Touch using a local download patch and easily add them to a playlist for playback, without worry of format and need of conversion and syncing tools.

Also, now you can enter your favorite media’s HTTP URL or RTSP into vlc4iphone’s playlists and stream the media over the net!
Have a YouTube video FLV? Just add it to vlc4iphone for playback.

There are still some things to do:
– I need to add ID3 Tag labels to audio media playback. And also label video media so people are more aware of what is being played during the playlist.
– I need to add a current location label to the file browsing.
– More performance can always help. Though FLV and MP4s are running very nicely assuming they aren’t very large resolutions!

Beta testers, and future beta testers, be sure to give feedback of this large update.

If you are a part of the media or a journalist, blogger, etc. and would like to receive vlc4iphone betas, just contact me here with a link to your work/website. The demand has been enormous for this application, but I will do my best to respond to all inqueries as fast as possible.

Thanks and enjoy,
ZodTTD

Terrance and Phillip (Build 31) (A2600 Game)

Do you remember the two farting guys “Terrance & Phillip” from South Park? Now those two guys have their very own computergame on the Atari 2600 platform.

Release notes from atari2600land:

+Changed screen 20. I’ve decided that jumping on top of the moving platform was too buggy, so I removed it. To start at level 2, have the right difficulty switch be A at the title screen. The changed screen is 5 screens in.
+Removed slipperiness of level 3 and added two screens in it.

Reword v0.5 (GP2x Game)

This is a clone of a great Flash game called TextTwist. The basic idea is, you have a 6 letter word that has been jumbled up and you must find as many of the 3, 4 5 and 6 letter words that can be made from it in the time allowed. You must get at least one 6 letter word to progress to the next level.

Release notes from PurplePup:

This update mainly addresses touchscreen support for the F200, and the sound (MOD music) volume problem previously reported.

Menus and in-game play now fully support touchscreen, with single and double tap operation. Double tap menu items to select, single tap letters and the new icon controls in-game to move/select letters or word definitions.
See the readme.txt for more information.

I don’t have a F200 so Micah Stetson pointed me in the right direction with some code changes I could build on, and testing was done through mouse support on the PC and passing the binary to Micah for approval. Hopefully I haven’t broken it in this final build.

Anyway, hope it works on the F200, and you like it.
