v1.7.3 - General maintenance

It has been quite a while since our last release of PlexDL, however this release brings about some general bug fixes and some other improvements:

• Upgraded PVS Media Player to version 1.7
• Fixed QR code system to properly decide between the online and offline providers
• Added a new setting which allows the user to decide whether or not they want to use the offline or online QR code provider (offline is the new default via QRCoder).

v1.7.2 - Fixed Update Functionality

• Fixed the updater functionality where an incorrect author was being passed to the GitHub API

v1.7.1 - Various fixes

• New QR code feature on the link viewer
• Settings dialog isn't so weird now
• LogDel files are encoded in Base64 by default, you can disable this in settings.
• The metadata window will now show a description of the container format rather than the file extension

v1.7.0 - Bug Fixes and Minor Functionality Improvements

• Fixed an issue where null/empty tables would cause a crash via the 'Viewing' label (PR: #6)
• Fixed an issue where GitHubUpdater stored API responses as JSON files when not in debug mode
• Improved the visuals of misc. labels
• Replaced all PictureBox controls with PreviewPictureBox controls which will launch an enlarged version on double-click
• GitHubUpdater should now show its wait window correctly when downloading and not simply freeze
• Upgraded PVS.MediaPlayer
• Fixed an issue in PlexDL.Common.Pxz where new files would be assigned duplicate names
• Exported PXZ files now store actor thumbnails, enabling offline viewing
• Settings dialog now has a control box
• Fixed VLC Media Player showing a broken title if the title included spaces
• API download engine swapped out for AltoHttp (continuity)
• Several small UI fixes and tweaks

Thanks for using PlexDL!

v1.6.0 - Stability and QoL improvements

• PlexDL now has a Mbps limiter for downloads (streams do not have this functionality due to technical roadblocks)
• PVS no longer has a weird stuttering issue (double buffering?)
• Azure DevOps takes care of the latest commit builds (if that's your thing you can download build artifacts from the pipeline)
• The player now has a volume slider and some small UI fixes
• PlexDL now uses a random GUID on first launch as its Plex 'ClientID'. This is found in the WDPAPI-encrypted file '.guid'.
• GitHubUpdater now stores HTML and CSS information separately. You can change the layouts inside if you want to.
• AltoHttp got some fixes to its mathematical stupidity
• You can create file associations for PlexDL via Settings->File Associations->Create
• You can commit settings to default using Settings->Global->Settings Control->Commit to Default. This will load the current settings each time you launch PlexDL (including any token and server you have loaded). Default settings are protected by WDPAPI because they may contain sensitive information. Use 'Reset' to restore PlexDL factory defaults.
• Fixed an issue where 'SessionID' in the logging framework may have been saved to the wrong column; preventing search and error logging functionality.
• WMP fallback mode for the player. If you experience problems with PVS.MediaPlayer, you can use WMP fallback mode via Settings->Player Settings to force the use of the Windows Media Player COM Interop library.
• Fixed an issue where AssemblyResolve.cs might not locate assemblies if launched from a location other than its install directory.
• You can select the 'pre-release' update channel in GitHubUpdater when in debug mode

As always, please report any oddities and bugs you may find.
