Announcing Zoom Player MAX and Zoom Player IPTV v21 release candidate 2

What's new in this beta:

  * New snap zones feature that allows you to instantly snap Zoom Player's
    window to 10 predefined screen positions and sizes.

    The snap zones feature uses a similar interface to the video position
    presets used in fullscreen mode. In fact, they share the same Zoom Player
    function and keyboard shortcuts.
    
    There is no conflict as snap zones only work in windowed mode while video
    position presets only work in fullscreen mode.

    There are two ways to set snap zones. The advanced options dialog under
    "Interface / Position & Size" or by using keyboard shortcuts. To use
    keyboard shortcuts, first position and size Zoom Player's window and then
    use the Ctrl+"0-9" keyboard shortcut to set one of the desired zones.
    
    For example, Ctrl+"5" will set the current window size and position to
    snap zone #5. To snap Zoom Player's window back to snap zone #5, all you
    need to do is press the "5" key in Windowed mode.

  * New Setting (Adv. Options / Playback / IPTV) that controls whether
    the stream/program filtering works when pressing enter or when typing
    in each key stroke.

    The new default is to require pressing enter. On older PCs or some
    laptops the experience of filtering on every key stroke was not optimal.

  * New right-click context menu "Help" usage guide images for the Media
    Server Browser and the new Modern UI control overlay.

  + Replaced the Audio mode button with an Options button in the Control
    Overlay's title area.

  + Reduced CPU overhead when dragging Zoom Player's window with the
    control overlay visible.

  - Fixed an issue where the control overlay did not disappear automatically
    after the specified time period.

  - Fixed a bug after playing certain media files and then opening the
    media library would open the media library in the wrong mode
    (e.g. media scanner).

  - Fixed an issue where partially downloaded IPTV metadata was used instead
    of keeping the previously downloaded metadata, causing the IPTV stream
    list to disappear or appear partially with no error being reported in
    the IPTV settings section of the advanced options dialog.

  - Fixed some DPI scaling issues on the "please upgrade" window.

  - When fixing a unicode date issue with Japanese/Chinese languages in a
    previous beta, I accidentally broke the IPTV EPG's date listing.
