Zoom Player 14.3

"*" = New
"+" = Change
"-" = Fix

What's new in Zoom Player v14.3:

* You can now perform sorting (by Listeners, Name, BitRate & Format) in the SHOUTcast station browser dialog.

+ When the up/down arrow keys are assigned to next/previous chapter or track, the up/down keys were not set logically, now pressing down will go to the next track/chapter and pressing up will go to the previous track/chapter.

+ Opening a YouTube channel with no internet connection now shows a refresh option instead of a message that the category is empty.

+ Using the 'Open subtitle file' to add a subtitle to the currently playing media now initializes the file selection dialog to open in the playing media's folder.

+ The stream selection fullscreen navigation interface will no longer automatically close when switching between tracks.

+ You can now open the stream selection fullscreen navigation interface even if no media is currently playing.

- Due to a language file that was not updated in version 14.2, the titles on navigation interfaces showed the wrong title.

- Pressing the "Load More" button in media library categories with a plugin capable of showing multiple pages (e.g. YouTube) would cause the refresh option to disappear if there were no more media to list.

- The RSS feed media library plugin was not showing the correct publishing dates for some RSS feed (e.g. YouTube RSS).

- Trying to load a playlist through the Open URL (Shift+"U") dialog failed with an error message.

- The media library playlist plugin did not function properly under some conditions, reporting an empty category.

- The media library playlist plugin did not use a clean category name when a playlist URL was used instead of an actual file.

17.1 (November 9, 2022)

--- What's new in Zoom Player v17.1:

* New "Display unwatched counter on TV Show category folders" setting (Adv. Options / Interface / Fullscreen Navigation / Thumbnail Cust.) that counts the number of unwatched episodes in "TV Show" categories and displays the count in a corner on the folder's thumbnail.
* Full customization for the TV Show unwatched counter: 1. Size (relative to thumbnail) 2. Margins (relative to Size) 3. Font Color 4. Background Color
* New "Display thumbnail season progression bar" setting (Adv. Options / Interface / Fullscreen Navigation / Thumbnail Cust.) that shows a season progression bar (similar to the last play position bar) in TV Show category based on the number of watched/unwatched episodes in a folder.
* New "Reset" option in each individual media library filtering mode (Genre, Tag and Collection).
* Two new Pixel Shader scripts you can use with MadVR as the video renderer to flip the video both horizontally and vertically.
+ Filtering the media library will now reset the selected entry to the first item, unless the "Auto-select last viewed file/folder on entering a folder" setting is enabled, in which case the last viewed file or folder is selected automatically.
+ If you previously used a download tracking plugin, you must now re-enable it. Plugins were previously enabled by default which could have caused delays when exiting Zoom Player.
+ Having ZP set to automatically show the media library when opening will no longer show the media library if a media was set to load using the command line.
+ Zoom Player will no longer display the default background image if a media is set to load via command line, removing the slight flicker of the image and slightly speeding up load time.
- Setting Zoom Player to pre-load fullscreen navigation graphics while trying to play a media from command line could cause ZP to freeze.
- When taking a screenshot of the playing video (Alt+F), the generated filename included a wrong position value (just the file name, the image was taken from the correct position).
- The "Stop function closes streaming media (instead of just stopping)" setting was accidentally applied to every playing media and not only live streams.
- Fixed a bug that would break URL links in the active playlist when closing and then re-opening Zoom Player.

Latest version
17.1 / 17.2 Beta 1 (March 15, 2023)

New :

* New "Resume Playback" media library feature that's accessible from
the media library's functions page and the media library's mini-menu
(Adv. Options / Interface / Fullscreen Navigation / Thumb View).

Resume playback looks for the first unwatched media in the folder
and then resumes playback from that media.

If no media from the folder has been previously played, it will play
the first media in the folder (in alphabetical order by Title or
File name).

If the last played media in the folder is over the "Consider media
as watched" percentage threshold, the next media will play in
alphabetical order by title (if previously scraped), otherwise by
file name.

* Added support for new YouTube URL format when adding YouTube channels
as media library categories:

Example:
https://www.youtube.com/@CowboyKentRollins

* Double-clicking a TV show thumbnail in the media library's TV Jukebox
mode will now play the episode.
Change :

+ Zoom Player no longer requires "freeimage.dll" to load. The library
which is used to display the ".WEBP" image format is now loaded
dynamically as-needed, saving a bit of RAM while allowing Zoom Player
to start slightly faster.
Fixes :

- The media library's unplayed media counter will now adjust the background
box size if the unwatched media counter is 3 digits or more.

- Fixed a bug that prevented the media library's right/left bump actions
from working after a PC was not reset for over a month.

- Some information was not displayed correctly in the media library for
YouTube channels containing the "|" character in their channel name,
video names or video description.

- Fixed a bug causing ".df" definition files not to save properly when playing
from shared network paths (e.g. "\\my_server\shared_folder\media.mkv").
