Change List from v21 beta 2:
* New media library search feature that works by filtering the
currently listed items. This feature will be expanded in future
releases to make it accessible using a remote control.
* You can now drag Zoom Player's window by dragging the title area
of a Home Theater interface. If you are not using the default
home theater skin, you may need a new version of the skin that
support this feature.
* New "/subtitle:[filename]" command line parameter that specifies an
external subtitle file that should be loaded when opening a media
file from the command line.
* Now showing the seek mouse cursor when the mouse is hovering over the
timeline area (can be disabled in the control overlay options).
* New keyboard shortcuts to switch between Classic & Modern user interfaces:
Ctrl+Shift+"F10" - Switch to Classic mode
Ctrl+Shift+"F11" - Switch to Modern mode
Classic mode :
- Fully skinned user interface with lots of buttons
- Control overlay interface is disabled
- Control bar appears when moving the mouse to screen-bottom (fullscreen)
- The space key shows the control bar
- Hot corners are enabled at 5%
Modern mode :
- Small frame user interface, no buttons whatsoever
- Control overlay interface appears over video area on mouse movement
- Control bar is disabled
- The space key performs a pause/play action
- Hot corners are disabled (feature conflict with control overlay)
+ Opening a Home Theater interface while the control overlay was visible
now restores the control overlay when closing the home theater interface.
+ The control overlay's timeline position-hint now appears above the
current time/duration time display area, no longer obscuring the text.
+ The audio tag display position has changed from "Bottom" to "Center" in
order to make sure it's not obscured by the control overlay.
+ Moving between screens instantly redraws the control overlay with button
sized to match the screen's resolution.
- Upgrading from previous versions using the default skin now resets the
skin to the new default mode.
- The control overlay's button sizes should now appear reasonable on
ultra-widescreen monitors.
- Fixed a bug that caused some of the Modern UI buttons to randomly
appear as white boxes.
- The "Prevent mouse actions from moving or resizing the main window"
feature no longer blocks regular mouse clicks.
- One of the code optimizations I've made in v21 beta 1 broke some
command line parameter parsing.
- Fixed a crash trying to resize the player window to minimum size
on a 4K display.
