While not in the list below, there have been changes made to the way the standard open dialog filters extensions. There is a big in every version of windows as to how this is handled and the bug-bypassing code needs testing, so let me know if anything "weird" shows up.
Changes since v4.00 beta 1:
* The Professional version of Zoom Player can now automatically
extract and play any Archive Format (default presets for
7Z,ARJ,BZ2,CAB,RAR and ZIP using the freely available 7-Zip
extraction suite). You can configure your own extractors
under "Options / Values / Other", but I recommend grabbing
7-Zip at www.7-zip.org as it's free and fast.
This new feature can also be used to extract AlbumWrap MP3 files
using the freeware "mp3splt.exe" tool from "http://mp3splt.sf.net".
* New Setting (Advanced Options / Settings / Playback), allowing
the Media Definition File (a file containing information on the
file being played such as color values, volume, balance, etc...)
to be saved automatically (default:off).
* New "/EJECT:[n]" command line parameter allowing you to eject
a CD/DVD drive from the command line. Example:
"x:\path\to\zplayer.exe" /EJECT:F
* Zoom Player can now play UTF8 encoded M3U play lists.
+ The screenshot function will now save the screenshot to the
"My Documents" folder if no alternative folder is specified.
+ DVD Auto-AR values are now applied only once each time the
Aspect Ratio mode changes instead of every chapter.
- Wrong date encoding error could pop when opening files with
no creation dates (could happen with some VCD/SVCD images).
- Possible crash when trying to load a media file from the
command line without specifying a path to the file.
- Dragging the Zoom Player window across monitors or changing
resolution should no longer reset the VMR9 color control values.
- Dragging the Zoom Player window across monitors or changing
resolution should no longer reset the Overlay color control values.
- Switching between Audio-Bar mode and Media Mode now maintains
the size of the audio bar.
- The /Q parameter now works when used in combination with the
scene-cut end playback event.
- Changing the Customized Media Mode Splitter twice would throw
an error about the file being in use.
- v4.00 beta 1 completely screwed up language file selection.
- Media by Extension mode got broken.
- "SetOPMWReversed" wasn't exported properly for translation.
- The /F:[n] parameter when used while Zoom Player is already
running wasn't passing the monitor value properly.
- Possible "Insert Disc in Drive" dialog opening inappropriately
when opening an ejected DVD drive.
