Enhancer Software v2.0 Released

After updating with enhancer 2.0 I began to get occasional strange shell informational messages for like emotion
It states:
'*** emotion quit with multitasking disabled'
(Shortened and probably misquoted somewhat too) I don't get what it means since it seems to imply some programs don't handle interrupts correctly and it might be a os program/ resource/device.

@IamSonic

Updated InfoWB sent to your email.

Hopefully it fixes the problem

@amigakit

yes the problem is fixed! The bug-ticket can be marked as resolved and closed

I've noticed that the archive contains the necessary files in order to create catalogs. I will work on the german one.

@IamSONIC

That’s great news. Thank you very much for the German translation

@daveyw

Check if our RadeonRX.chip driver version 2.4 or ... 1.11

You can do it with ZTools from amistore or compare the file length with ES2.0

Radeonrx.chip 1.11 not support acceleration GPU.

@geennaam

I would try another hdd :)

or

Check if our RadeonRX.chip driver version 2.4 or ... 1.11

@amig_os

Ranger identifies it as 2.4. It is the same file length as the file in the Enhancer 2.0 software archive.

@Spectre660

Yes, still using the Sapphire Radeon RX 560 (haven't given up yet!), and as far as I can tell RadeonRX.chip is version 2.4

@daveyw

Can you playback a video using Emotion 1.9 and then post a debug log ?

use

dumpdebugbuffer ram:log.txt

@Spectre660

I can't, it locks up.

@MaximvsPayne

Which one of the candies?
It works here, but i must admit i've been there too.

Candi is a bitch and will bitch whenever she likes.

Best bet is to wipe Candi completely off of your HDD and reinstall the latest version.
That fixed it for me.

AND...NEVER EVER change the settings...Candi has a 50% chance to corrupt it's own ENVARC: settings file and you'll get a crash on the next boot.

^^^
Everything reported on the tracker since years, but development on Candi is dead

@daveyw

Sorry.
thought that you were getting some output rather than a crash.

Anyone tried a video with no audio ?

@Spectre660

yes. Both is working:

Only video (mp4):



Only audio (m4a):

Hi Everyone!

Okay, I have an AmigaOne 500 with a Radeon HD 5450 and Sii 3512 card installed.

Here is what I found with the Enhancer V2.0 and the fixes I found for some of the problems.

Following programs cause the grim reaper crash:

Multiviewer - This appears to be completely broken. I was unable to get this running no matter what I did. Reverted back to the older version.

Format - This would crash on startup and ignoring the dsi
errors would allow the program to run. Fixed with removing the new datatypes.library and reverting back to the old one.

Candi - This would crash when it would first start the backdrop and ignoring the dsi errors would then lauch the backdrop. This also was fixed with removing the new datatypes.library and reverting back to the old one.

Emotion - This would crash when it would start, and ignoring dsi errors would allow it to resume. This also was fixed with removing the new datatypes.library and reverting back to the old one.

AmiDvD and PartionWizard exit from an internal process as everyone on here knows.

All the other programs including Tunenet, AmiPDF, Archiver, MultiEdit, and X-Dock work fine.

The notification server is completely fixed now and shows the icons with the message with no problems. This was broke after the last OS4.1 update.

The graphics drivers appear to work. I can now see the full 512 megs on my Radeon card. I know my card is not compatible with the Warp3d stuff so I cannot test that.

The sound, mod, mpega, wav datatypes is still broke. They are better then the last enhancer update, since the last one I could not get them to play sound at all, but now they play sound, however the system beep is messed up. If you have a wav selected in the sound prefs. Once the computer boots and you try to quit the workbench, it flashes the screen but does not play the wav file. Once you open the sound prefs and save it, it then works. But after you reboot, same problem all over again.

What seemed to fix most of the problems for me was going back to the datatypes.library V54.7.

I would recommend to any AmigaOne 500 owners, revert back to the datatypes.library, go back to the original sound.datatype, mod, mpega, and wav datatypes.

Okay, this was my experience with this. I am looking forward to getting the new A1222 since I am in the early adopter program!

@IamSONIC

Thanks. Was directing at thosee having the crashes.

@yogi32

Apart from the Candi animation not running at startup and
AmiDvD and PartionWizard issues not having your issues here either with my main installation or a Clean OS + Enhancer test installation on USB thumb drive.

Runninga 4k video and playing a mod with multiviewr and the datatypes simulataneously .
still have Have to try the wave file in sound prefs.

@yogi32

The sound prefs issue is real.
Will see if I can investigate some more then file a bugreport .
