Once in a while you might want to play some animated GIFs on your Nspire calc. Here's a simple solution for that (nAGIF). Requires ndless. This is actually a port of SDL_anigif (by Doug McFadyen): -------- http://forums.libsdl.org/viewtopic.php?p=7737&sid=aa7a8b141d3dc3d20c697e22da8553ea"The project is not yet complete (lacks documentation and multiple OS support - only supports Win32 now), but all the source code is there for your animated gif enjoyment." http://bitbasher.net/SDL/SDL_anigif.zip-------- Also, today we tend to take nSDL for granted, but let's not forget the good work done by Hoffa (I know you are somewhere  ). Have fun! You may have a look at the source code (no strings attached, BTW). And it looks like the pics attached.

Good news: Version 1.20 works perfectly on my Samsung Note Tab and my FireTV. Still problem with Nexus Player use of Content Menu but OK since I got it to work with rooted FireTV. Used CPU-Z to see FireTV arm processor running Android 4.2.2. Connected wireless USB mouse takes place of touch screen on TV screen. Minor issue of FireTV dpi. About 3/4 screen.
Good to know! Yeah, the USB mouse replaces the finger on the touch screen (but IIF you don't need up to 5-finger multi-touch which Nspiroid does support in gaming view ). Think problem with Nexus Player Atom processor Android 6.0.1 is system/remote has no content key and thus no global content software. Same Content USB key that works on nspiroid FireTV USB keyboard does not work on nspiroid Nexus Player. Nexus Player can not use your content icon either as menu shows and disappears. Not a problem because I can use FireTV with my 50 inch Visio TV. A possible clue for the problem: Kodi software fix since no content menu on the remote was to modify keymap for its data to excute Content Menu for the remote's play/pause key. Content Menu was only item in Kodi specific keymap.
AFAIK, the Atom (vs ARM) CPU shouldn't really make any difference. I would be more inclined to blame the Android version being 6.0.1 on the Nexus Player. On the FireTV you have 4.2.2 which is a much more robust (tested) OS version. Android 6.0.1 is still relatively new and hence not sufficientely tested (I mean, quite likely some bugs are still lurking around). I'll keep an eye on the issue, but i'm afraid it will take some time because things are getting a bit busy for me. Anyway, thanks for letting us know.

Samsung S6 (xxxhdpi ~560 ppi) - 1440 x 2560 (@khiconmtv: the lcd area has been maximized)
Oh, work well...
Thank you so much.
I'm glad it works (a little better) for you  . Thanks for the quick reply, BTW! Still working  ... Well, joke aside, I have not seen what have changed in the layout  ...
Well, minor things really: a) buttons are taller (smaller black area at the bottom) ; b)there's a gap between them; c) the graphic symbols aren't blurred as before, maybe something else I forgot Also, what is favorites popup ? Sorry to be a little dumb  !
Favorites popup is displayed pressing a toolbar button (the starred one) on the usb_explorer view, to allow you to save/delete/edit your nspire file system path bookmarks to ease the access to certain often used folders. Please have a look at the attached picture. As always, thanks for the job.
Thank you too for the v1.20 confirmation (oops, excuse me  ).

Hello there, Here is a 'generic' (welll, not quite yet ) Nspiroid version v1.20 (follow up to v1.17) which should work across a variety of device (phones and tablets) with either CPU x86 or ARM. The Android classes (screen density and resolution) tested on real devices (either by me or by some of the coleagues in this thread) are as follows: Phones:Asus ZenFone5 (xhdpi ~294 ppi) - 720 x 1280 Asus Selfie (xxhdpi ~403 ppi) - 1080 x 1920 Samsung S6 (xxxhdpi ~560 ppi) - 1440 x 2560 ( @khiconmtv: the lcd area has been maximized) Tablets:Asus Memopad 176CX 7.0": (hdpi ~216 ppi) - 1280 x 800 Asus PadfoneS Dock 9.0": (xlarge-hdpi ~251 ppi) - 1920 x 1200 ( @PERRON: check favorites popup) Samsung Galaxy Pro 8.4": (xlarge-xhdpi ~359 ppi) - 2560 x 1600 ( @PERRON: landscape layouts have changed a bit) It's also expected that Nspiroid will work on devices with similar specs. Work has restarted today, so less time for hobbies  .

@Larry Schroeder: Sorry, no Nspiroid on TV. Nspiroid has been designed from the very start to be used in phones and tablets with a touch interface. I took the decision early on not to include keyboard support and today I'm not sure if I ever will, unless there's a large demmand for it.

@Larry Schroeder: I'm sorry to hear that. But have you tried to use Nspiroid without the external bluetooth keyboard paired? I mean with Bluetooth switched off. I have not (yet) tested Nspiroid with an external keyboard attached (all these tests take time...). All I can tell you is that the Android keyboard interface is different from the touch screen. So, it doesn't really surprise me that some problems might come up. If that 'thing' persists I will certainly have to spend more time on it to fix it (for good).

Today I've finished off (for the time being) the new level event scripting that will feature in Episode III: Impact (and Episodes I & II will be patched to the new format as well). The new format gives me more power to add multiple triggers & events during a level. In the below screenshot there are a few examples:

Your ability to design games is undoubtedly unquestionable, period! (+1) However the z80 reminds me of my old student times, more than 30 years ago (sorry 'bout that). What to do you guys find in phosphorus green/yellow so passionate, if I may ask  ?

Hi, kArmTI's update v1.80 (x86).
Changes from v1.79:
1. Keypad Options:
. RawMode - to play games
('cooked' keys like, eg, Shift, would get in the way)
. DrawkeyFocus - follow the mouse while hovering over the skin keys
(mostly a skin debug aid)
. Skin keys overlay marks are now drawn using a gradient fill.
The diagonal cursors keys have better matched overlays.
2. QuickKeys:
. Read-only keys are hidden in the CalcLC.
(only affects Clickpad)
3. Auxiliar Display:
. Context menu options are now also visible on a frame bottom transparent toolbar.
4. Joypad:
. Keys are live now, ie they are clickable.
So, functionality wise the only relevant addition is the Joypad keys being clickable now. All the rest is mostly cosmetics but IMO also important for GUI geeks.
Cheers,

Auguri di Buon Anno 2016! Where are you from? How do you know Italian? 
Oh no, just simple sentences really. Mind you, there are actually a lot of similarities between Italian and Portuguese. Also, I've been to Italy a few times and I was born and now live in Portugal. So, yeah!

Happy new year
@PERRON : Nice new year cat. Is beautiful! I'm posting an exclusive version to be used only on the Lenovo Yoga2 tablet, 13.3" (the 'big brother', hehe). The reason I may explain later after it is confirmed as working. This is quite a bit of work and I'm not able (time-wise) to tackle more special cases. Moving forward, the idea is to work on a generic Nspiroid version, which will incorporate as many as possible, regular Android tablets and phones. I'll continue working on the generic version, but first I need to clean up the mess to ensure that previously supported devices continue to be supported (not as simple as it sounds) before adding more new devices. So, here goes v1.19_Yoga2_only.apk for you to have a go. @Larry Schroeder1. versions v118 and today's v119 are exclusive for the Lenovo Yoga2 and should not be used anywhere else. Most likely it won't work! 2. Nexus Player: Using v117, you might have some luck but only after adjusting the 'screen density' to about 250 dpi, as it comes with 240 dpi as default. This would roughly match the density of the Asus PadfoneS, which has 1920x1080 resolution and 251ppi screen density.(For Android ppi equals dpi).

And it is a success !

Good news indeed! Now I'm taking a short break you certainly know why . Happy New Year 2016.

No problem
I need to run a test before proceeding into a final Nspiroid version (if ever  ) for the Lenovo Yoga2 Pro tablet, which IMO behaves in a peculiar way in Android terms. Please run this Nspiroid_yoga2_test.apk on your device and post here a screenshot of the main landscape view (only!) . If that works, we may be able to speed up things a bit. ( Thanks is always a polite way to close sentences, but... I'll postpone it this time )

Hi JPP , I'm a bit lost here, I must admit. I not able to properly emulate the Yoga2 device. In my emulators things look good but unfortunately not on the real device. So, would it be possible for you to run the CPU-Z utility on your Yoga2 and post here a screenshot of the 'device' tab? That tab is the one that displays the screen resolution and the screen density. That info would allow me to try to better emulate it.

@PERRON Here is yet another Nspiroid test version v1.17. The main target is the tablet Lenovo Yoga2 pro, 2560x1440, 13.3", ~221ppi. I hope not many incompatibilities will surface, though. Again, thanks for your cooperation. @Larry SchroederHi Larry, welcome to the Nspiroid thread! Thanks for your feedback and best of luck with your Nspire book.
