More good news indeed. We now have the VCD and DVD TVout playback modes for G400 upto and including G550 cards. I was indeed able to get them working nicely on G400 also now, although overscanning in NTSC VCD mode is very minimal. It seems the G400 MAVEN design has restrictions which are just a bit too narrow to support all important modes exactly as they are supposed to be. Note please that you will need the (updated) tool 'VideoScreen V6' for setting the VCD/DVD modes for now (see the techinfo and tools page).So if you own such a card, download it and don't forget, report back to Rudolf if you encounter any problems, or just to praise him.

As BeClan is trying to provide more facilities to the community in general, one of the things we're interested in is keeping as much information about our favourite platform (and all it's derivatives) in the public domain as possible. To further this we have been discussing making the BeBook available, with some interesting twists that should return it to a living, growing entity that is truly useful.So if you're reading this, and you have what they're looking for, go ahead and contact them. You know it'll give you a nice warm feeling inside.
To get this started we'd be interested in hearing from anyone who has a copy of the annotated BeBook. We'll give full credit for anyone able to provide an archive of it (of course). Should you be able to help please This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.! Thanks!

1) We are consistantly near the top 25 or so projects on SourceForge. This week, for example, we are 94% on the project activity list. That means a lot of checkins are happening.Some very interesting points indeed, especially the last one, hopefully things will move faster now and they'll be able to (finally) change to their new name. There are other updates of course, so to read them all go to the OpenBeOS site.
3) We have around 1.3 million lines of source code. Compared to R5's 6 million, that may not seem like much, but I believe that we will come in substantially under 3 million lines of source at the end of the day.
9) What I hope to be the last paperwork for the recognition of the non-profit has been sent out to the IRS via FedEx.
I'd like to thank Oscar Lesta for the heads up on this one.

Among the most interesting things with this update are that yellowTAB have added a new decor to replace the BeOS R5 one. All old decors that were buggy have been removed. But not only the decors have changed, also the system font is replaced by a clean looking Sans Serif font, as you can see from a screenshot published over at ZetaNews.
