Here’s a short roundup of BeBits postings lately. The IM Kit project has released an MSN login fix for the recently-posted Alpha 12 – as the name implies, it should fix MSN login glitches that crept into the latest release. BeOS users who are into lossless audio have a pretty decent range of options these days; the Monkey Audio (APE) Suite was updated not long ago, and this week saw the release of a FLAC plugin for SoundPlay. Another FLAC package was released on BeOS in 2002 (updated Sept. 2005), but it appears to contain a command-line encoder and no decoder/playback software.

A new build of the Seamonkey browser (formerly Mozilla Suite) was also posted recently – this release is BONE-only and includes the usual bugfixes and optimizations. Lastly, two related pieces of software were posted this last week, the first was an update to the Haiku Multiaudio MediaAddon which adds support for 24 and 32-bit audio. The same developer – Jerome Duval – also released updated versions of the BeOS Echo Audio drivers with 24/32-bit support (only tested with the 3g so far, but it appears to be enabled for all the hardware).
