Release v1.0.7

[BazzaCuda]

Windows 64-bit binaries.

New Functionality

• Allows for multiple MinimalistMediaPlayer instances to be running. Useful when, for example, comparing the resolution and picture quality of two copies of the same movie/video file.
• Some existing controls are now actioned in all running MinimalistMediaPlayer windows:

1. SPACEBAR - pause/play. (right-click to pause/play only effects the media file which is clicked)
2. All of the tab-forwards and tab-backwards controls. T and Ctrl-T are best for keeping all the media files in sync while tabbing through them.
3. [S] - to re[S]tart the current media file - useful for bringing all windows back in sync if they started out of sync while being launched by Windows.
4. [#] - to reshow the media file caption in each window.
5. [G] and Ctrl-[G] to make all the window sizes [G]reater or smaller.
6. [C] and Ctrl-[C] to toggle the display of the media captions.

New Controls
Ctrl-0 - closes all running instances of MinimalistMediaPlayer.
Ctrl-9 - will arrange up to 4 MinimalistMediaPlayer windows in a 2x2 grid. If only one instance is running, it will be resized to fit 90% of the screen width. If two instances are running, they will be fitted horizontally, side by side, to fit the width of the screen. Three instances will be arranged as a row of two with the third window centered below them. Four instances will be arranged in a 2x2 grid. In all cases, each window will be resized to match the aspect ratio of the video and forced to fit within the width and height limitations of the screen.

Essential Files (unzip all to the same folder):

• MinimalistMediaPlayer_release_v1_0_7.zip
  (I strongly recommend that you do not download this file from any source other than Github)

• mediaInfo.zip
  N.B. You don't need to download this file again if you already downloaded it for a previous version.

• libmpv-2.zip
  N.B. You don't need to download this file again if you already downloaded it for a previous version.

(If you have a lower-spec machine (or you have any issues at all with playback), you may prefer this version of libmpv-2.dll):

• libmpv-2.lower-spec.zip
  N.B. You don't need to download this file again if you already downloaded it for a previous version.

If you prefer, the latest version of libmpv-2.dll can be downloaded directly from https://sourceforge.net/projects/mpv-player-windows/files/libmpv/ - the file marked "v3" is for higher spec machines.

Optional Files:

• rot.zip
  You need this file if you want the "file delete" functionality. Without this file, no file deletions will occur even if you confirm them.
  N.B. You don't need to download this file again if you already downloaded it for a previous version.

All comments and suggestions for additional functionality will be well received over on the Discussions page https://github.com/BazzaCuda/MinimalistMediaPlayerX/discussions
