Hi guys, AGABlaster 0.9.70 is now available:

[https://mschordan.github.io/amiga/agablaster.html

* Added keyboard video controls (forward/backward/halt/restart/volume)
The backward seek on disk is very slow on the original OS3.x. Therefore AGABlaster 0.9.70 computes an internal offset table (while playing) to compute a single seek for +-10 secs. This keeps it within reasonable time range (1-2 secs). Forward is always fast.
* Added automatic video centering (y-axis)
* Added copper effects (duplicates video 4x and 12x) - 4x works fine on my A4000/60, 12x shows some flickering sometimes on my A4000/60 (it runs fine in the emulator). Something to figure out about this one.
* Activated AGA border blank feature - that's a feature on the AGA architecture to turn off the border - this means it's black, even if color register 0 (background color) has a color different to black. Therefore any CDXL video will run without "flashy" background (with agaconv this is not an issue because it already encodes videos with black background color).
