What AmigaOS missed in 1995 was an owner with a solid vision, and competent business leaders and marketing team. Lacking these things was already a problem back when Commodore was still alive.

Any update to Emotion? any SDK for the ffmpeg wrapper?

Discussion point: what is AmigaOS missing? in 1995?

One of my Amiga obsessions is what-if-ing over what AmigaOS would be in it's next iteration after the original 3.1.
Now of course we have a real 3.2, which is wonderful, and it certainly does a great job of 'finishing' the things left hanging like adding Help and BOOPSI (with Reaction), as well as rounding out things like modern filesystem support.
Then of course we have defacto standard extensions such as P96 and AHI.
So what's left? If there was an Amiga 1400 in 1995 for example, what features would it have to help it compete with Mac OS 7.6 and 8, and Windows 3.11 and 95?
I don't mean memory protection and things that the hardware just can't do, and I also exclude virtual memory since memory is cheap now even if it wasn't then.
Some obvious candidates - TCP/IP and LAN working were filled then by AmiTCP and Envoy, and now by Roadshow, and SMBFS.
For me the obvious missing piece is a multimedia framework, equivalent to Quicktime, or gstreamer. I'd like to think there's a parallel universe where Amiga had its own Quicktime like API with all that that entails.
What's on your wishlist?

@Raziel
it wasn't actually able to creating anything for me since it's trying to do so in a directory whose name is doubled up. Sounds like that might be a good thing.
I'm down a different rabbit hole at the moment. My project won't compile due to g++ complaining that something doesn't exist in C++ std lib but that's a topic for elsewhere.

"cmake --version" works happily for me Don't know if that's a sign that it will do greater things or not at this point. That's all I have for the moment. Next I need to create a cmake file for my project since I had gone with Make knowing that we didn't have a decent cmake version. Once I've managed to work out why my C++ Hello World spews loads of errors (C++ was never my strong point !) [EDIT] OK, spoke too soon - once it actually has something to do I get what I presume is the same error as Raziel so I'll try the executable above:
CMake Error: Unable to (re)create the private pkgRedirects directory:
Data:Dev/Projects/Tutorials/build/Data:Dev/Projects/Tutorials/build/CMakeFiles/pkgRedirects
This may be caused by not having read/write access to the build directory.
Obviously the path is doubled up there and it's not really a read/write issue [EDIT2] Here is my output from that other cmake (haven't rebooted yet, but I would assume since it just output those values and exited it can't be the old version cached):
11.Data:Dev/Projects/Tutorials/build> cmake ..
exe : /Data/Dev/cmake-amiga/bin/cmake
exe_dir : /Data/Dev/cmake-amiga/bin

@Capehill Quote: I checked dos.library autodocs but couldn't spot a function to copy some file. Is there any ? No. Easiest way is probably something like
STRPTR cmd = IUtility->ASPrintf("Copy CLONE BUFFER=32768 %s %s", sourcefilename, destfilename);
if (NULL == cmd)
{
error
} else {
if (0 != IDOS->SystemTags(cmd, ...))
{
error
}
IExec->FreeVec(cmd);
}
Or allocate a MEMF_SHARED buffer, for example 16 MB, fopen() source and dest files, fread()/fwrite() buffer size loop until done, fclose() source and dest files (or IDOS->FOpen()/FRead()/FWrite()/FClose() instead of the C library functions) and copy the protection bits, user/group and comment with IDOS->SetProtection(), IDOS->SetOwnerInfo() and IDOS->SetComment().

@Raziel Try this (if you dare): cmake (only for testing purposes)You should be somewhat safe. Post the output here. EDIT : Remember to reboot first, so you don't use a cached item. ;)

DVPlayer can plays WebM videos with sound, it is just very quiet. You just need to make the sound a little louder.

@Raziel Quote: i also just killed my whole porting subdir by trying to back it up... Woops...! Sorry, mate. I faintly remember some issue with symlinks from the old version. If memory is not playing tricks on me, then maybe I can consult the old code and see, if there is some solution already in place.

I think it depends on what resolution the WebM video uses. On my computer I tested the test WebM video from here https://www.webmfiles.org/demo-files/ with Emotion, I had no sound, MPlayer/DVPlayer/Odyssey on the other hand had no problems with the sound. The playback speed with Odyssey/Emotion/DVPlayer/MPlayer was perfectly fine on my machine.
