    mpv:

    rolled Qt back from 5.14.0 to 5.13.0 on the releases, which seems to have fixed our 'event queue sometimes halts until mouse move' issue that occurs after initial mpv load. some other ui and media viewer resize jank seems to be cleared up. I dunno what happened with 5.14, and I don't suspect it as the problem nearly as much as my currently borked Qt event processing code, but rolling back seems the easiest solution for now
    fixed an issue that was crashing non-windows that were able to load mpv
    mpv now loads an mpv.conf from install_dir/static/mpv-conf. please feel free to swap in another conf or edit that one as you like. I would be interested in feedback
    default mpv conf is now set to specifically enable some hardware acceleration to improve playback for some users, and to never load sidecar files like subtitles as this was introducing incredibly large load lag for users with large/high latency file storage
    fixed a new issue where preview windows were not unloading media (particularly significant for mpv with audio) on page change and client shutdown
    fixed an issue with global volume propagation to multiple open mpv widgets

    the rest:

    added two dark qss stylesheets from the user-creation github repo to the default install
    when zooming out from a zoom that makes the media bigger than the media viewer canvas to a zoom where it fits, the media will now recenter. see if you like this, maybe it should be an option
    to help forestall unnamespaced filename tag spam in various new-user scenarios, the 'filename' checkbox-and-namespace widget on the filename tagging options panel now initialises with 'filename' as the namespace
    fixed a recent window sizing issue with the 'the client is already running' dialog not appearing
    file export paths that include subdirectories that could possibly have empty text, like "[creator]/[page]", will no longer error when this is so (e.g. if a file in this case has no creator tags)--they will eliminate the subdirectory entirely, becoming "[page]". this should work for all platforms and for any nested subdirectory
    fixed an issue with some fractional dataspeeds below 1KB/s displaying with many significant figures
    improved some custom event handling definition code
    reworked hydrus's internal object publisher/subscriber messaging system to be more Qt-happy
    if the file import tagger is given a neighbouring .txt file to pull tags from that does not decode to utf-8 nicely, it now catches and reports the error more gracefully
    reworded a bit of the installing help and first-start popup to emphasise that hydrus does not auto-update
    added links to https://github.com/Zweibach/text/blob/master/Hydrus/PTR.md , a new guide for the PTR, to the help
    removed the old 'hardcoded shortcuts' help entry, since it is increasingly irrelevent

Changelog

    mpv:

    updated the prototype volume/mute controls on the top media viewer hover window to be a proper 'speaker' icon button for mute with a volume slider that pops up or down on mouse-over
    the new volume control is on the hover window and any media that has audio
    the right-click menu of the preview viewer and media viewer now have volume submenus to set mute/volume

    the client now has multiple volumes and mutes:

    for mute, there is a global mute which overrides everything, and the preview and media viewers have their own mutes that just apply there.
    under options->audio, you can choose whether preview windows have their own separate volume value, default is yes they do
    there is a new shortcut set called 'global', which applies on the main gui and the media viewer both, and which currently has actions to alter global mute. by default, ctrl+g flips global mute
    after reports of unusual rendering bugs for some users, the default mpv.conf is now more barebones. more work will happen here

    linux:

    the linux release is now built on Ubuntu 18.04 (was 16.04). unfortunately, my build packager bundled in a variety of surplus libraries, so the archive has bloated somewhat--I have removed some that I am confident are not needed, but I may have made a mistake, and there are likely more that can be taken away
    the linux release now comes with mpv support
    please let me know if you have any errors running this build or loading mpv. early tests seem good though!

    the rest:

    the launch/exit splash screen now uses a cleaner Qt-compatible layout system. It resizes and obeys stylesheets better, colouring text and background according to current style
    removed the 'has duration' text label option from 'audio and duration' options panel as it is no longer used, and renamed the panel back to just 'audio'
    the string transformation edit panel's individual transformation edit panel now shows that transformation step's example string and the transformed string, which is updated by button. this edit panel will get some more love soon, including dynamic hide/show of applicable controls and live updates of the example transformation as you type

Changelog

    Shortcuts:

    The shortcut system now supports mouse double-clicks--left, right, or middle
    The shortcuts system now differentiates between press or release single mouse clicks--although complete support for release mouse events may be a bit patchy, as full mouse integration is ongoing
    The shortcut edit ui is now simpler--the command type is selected by a list, and the individual command sub-panels hide and show as appropriate--no more stupid 'set command' buttons
    The shortcut edit ui now has a 'restore defaults' button that will restore an individual set back to default settings
    Two new shortcut sets are added--'media_viewer_media_window' and 'preview_media_window'. they control pause, pause/play, open_externally, and close/launch_media_viewer respectively. they work on the static image viewer, the native animation widget, and the new mpv player, and they support mouse clicks. the old pause/play (formerly left-click) and open_externally (double left-click) commands are no longer hardcoded
    By default, the preview window's media window now launches the media viewer on a middle- or double-left-click
    'media_viewer_browser' shortcut set now has 'release right-click' bound to 'show_menu', a new command, which is no longer hardcoded
    Most menus across the program can now be opened with the keyboard context menu key
    The 'global' shortcut set now has 'exit_application', 'exit_application_force_maintenance', and 'restart_application' commands
    Fixed the rating increment/decrement command option not hiding in non-'media' shortcut sets
    Fixed some issues loading edit ui for shortcuts with rating actions
    significant refactoring and some cleaning of shortcut code

    The rest:

    Mpv windows should not longer get a single frame of previous-window-stretch when flicking between one mpv media to another with a different aspect ratio on the same media canvas. when a video is caught in a frame of loading, it should now flicker a frame of black
    Switching from one static image or native animation to another of the same type should be less likely to do a single frame of stretch when transitioning. when an image or animation transition is caught on a new frame, it should now flicker a frame the same colour as the media canvas background
    The string transformation edit panel's individual transformation rule edit panel has had some more work: much like with shortcuts, the controls now hide and show based on transformation type, the controls' text labels now change based on transformation type, and the example text now updates on any widget change. the manual 'update example' button is removed
    Fixed a typo that caused an error when establishing the correct mouse cursor to use over the volume control when hydrus was using PyQt5 (rather than PySide2)
    In order to reduce accidental micro-drags that cause mpv load-pause issues, starting a thumbnail drag now takes more pixels and requires a smoother drag to start, let's see how it goes
    Improved the show/hide logic of the floating autocomplete dropdown window. it should now also reliably detect when window focus goes from the dropdown itself to another window
    Fixed a bug where clearing the deletion record of a deleted tag would not remove the record from the fast cache that populates thumbnail tags (making it seem on most file loads that the tag still existed). if you were hit by this previously, please hit database->regen->a/c cache one time to resync the cache
    Relatedly, thumbnails should now correctly live-update their deleted tags on deletion record clearance updates
    If mpv is not available, opening the about window will now make a popup with the actual import error trace
    Significant refactoring of various ui code

Changelog

    mpv:

    the mpv window is now plugged into the slideshow system, so when an mpv window has played its media once, a media viewer browser currently slideshow-ing will now correctly know to move to the next media
    slideshows of videos should progress to the next file faster and more smoothly, with no more half-second blit of the start of the movie before the next file loads
    pausing video/audio is no longer cause for the slideshow to move on--now only the 'has played once through' check will naturally trigger it. you can now more reliably seek/scrub a video during slideshow
    the mpv window and native animation player is now better about pausing while a seek drag (scrub) is ongoing
    various music videos that have 1 frame should now show a seekbar correctly for the mpv window, with correct timecode based seeking
    fixed a bug in the video/audio resizing code that meant zoom in/out cycles would move a video player down a few pixels off center
    the blank audio mpv window now has basic hardcoded zoom support and will scale down to a too-small viewer window, so you can still access the seek bar
    fixed some 'has duration' calculations for audio/video that has duration but no frame count

    shortcuts:

    if a shortcut handler on an individual window does not have a double-click mapping for a command--and furthermore if none of its parent windows that are fully plugged in have one either--it will attempt to map the single-click version of the event as a backup. so now if you have an archive/delete filter, you can click fast again and the double-clicks will be interpreted as single-clicks (unless you map double-click to mean something else on the media_window or one of the media_viewer parents)
    the media viewers across the program are now fully plugged into the shortcuts system for key presses, and half-plugged in for mouse clicks
    'close_media_viewer' is added to all 'media_viewer' shortcut set types. enter/return/escape are now defaults for 'media_viewer' (applying to all), and middle-click/double left-click are now defaults for 'media_viewer_browser'. this is no longer hardcoded. if you are a madlad, you can now unmap all 'close_media_viewer' commands
    double left-click is now assigned to 'keep' in the 'archive_delete_filter' shortcut set. due to the new click/double click rules above, this means that by default double clicking a video/audio in the archive/delete filter will now mean 'keep and move on' on that fast second click!
    edit shortcut set ui now sorts its command list on load
    significant shortcuts refactoring
    general shortcuts code and debug code cleanup and improvement
    local file import pages and most downloaders will now report more file import steps to their status labels. most will blit by too fast to see, but if it hangs for a bit, you will now see the step it is caught up on. I imagine in most cases, this will be metadata generation for large videos
    fixed a variety of searches that could return files not filtered to the current file domain (e.g. files in trash while in my files, or not in ipfs while in ipfs) when the search did not include an inclusive tag
    updated the default danbooru file page parsers to get their new tag format, thank you to a user for submitting these
    a popup message now appears while sessions are loading. it auto-dismisses once the load is complete
    the edit media view options dialog (under options->media, launched from the filetype list) is now better at disabling non-applicable widgets based on filetype
    fixed an issue where clicking from the autocomplete dropdown floating window to the same control's text input could result in a single flicker-frame where the dropdown is hidden
    tightened the size of the splash screen white background. figuring out appropriate colour from the current stylesheet remains elusive lmao
    cleaned up and wx->Qt converted a variety of event handling code
    updated some 'mime' labels across the program to the new 'filetype' wording

Changelog

    gifs and mpv:

    the client now parses gifs for loop count metadata (some gifs say they should only be played x times through, usually 1). options->media now has a checkbox to control whether this value should be obeyed. both the native viewer and the mpv viewer should follow this. default value is still to loop indefinitely
    if gifs are set to play with the mpv player, those without duration will now still be loaded in the native image viewer. the media viewing options ui now notes this
    the mpv.conf file used in the mpv window can now be changed under options->media. it should update the conf for all open mpv players on options dialog ok. added to the hydrus static mpv-conf directory are three new 'test' mpv confs for high quality and two audio normalisation tests. all test feedback and recommended conf info is welcome

    ui cleanup and improvements:

    the media viewer mouse autohide time is now customisable under options->media, including disabling it completely. it defaults to 700ms
    improved the timing and reliability of the media viewer mouse autohide code
    the mouse should now never autohide while a dialog is open
    improved the bad colours of the splash screen. it should now be all one colour now, no ugly stand-out white square or other hardcoded colours. hydev also deployed his unparalleled gimp skills to get a white fade around the transparent-background hydrus icon, so it should look correct in darkmodes as well
    created a default_hydrus.qss file in the qss folder in order to handle formerly hardcoded colours using hydrus-specific classnames and properties. as well as being loaded by default, this qss file is prepended to any custom stylesheet, so any custom stylesheet that includes its own versions of the hydrus-specific entries will override the defaults. this qss will get more work in future
    added on/off buttons to hydrus default qss and converted existing object to use class and properties to obey this
    added a variety of valid/invalid/warning text colours to hydrus default qss and converted existing text objects to use classnames to obey this
    added accept/cancel buttons to hydrus default qss and converted all green/red buttons across the program to use classnames to obey this
    the migrate database dialog now has an outright 'remove location' button to reduce confusion and speed up removal of high weight locations
    if a location does not exist on the migrate database dialog, it will now stop throwing multiple error popups every time the list slightly changes, and will complain if file rebalancing is attempted, and will provide different 'remove' yes/no messages if that missing location currently has files or not
    slight ui touch-ups to the migrate database dialog
    if a window that remembers its position attempts to re-position to a location not on a current display, the windowing system now attempts to rescue it to the primary display, with appropriate popup messages given and errors caught more gracefully
    extended these off-screen rescue calls to windows that pull their position from their parent. e.g. if you open the options dialog while the main gui is half over the left side of your screen, it should rescue to the primary display
    windows that position off the center of their parent now calculate that reliably on the parent window, not just the parent widget, which never really worked as intended
    windows that have no position memory and no parent to pull center/topleft position from will now appear center/topleft of the monitor your mouse is on
    the splash screen now appears centered on the monitor your mouse is on
    cleaned up and improved a bunch of window/screen coodinate code, moving 'space on screen' calculations to 'space on screen minus taskbar' and similar
    unified a 'dialog is open' check across the program
    cleaned up the old wx->Qt size, coordinate, and colour conversion code
    cleaned up some old wx->Qt calculation code
    improved 'light' and 'grey' colour detection code to now work in HSV
    improved colour changing code to now work in HSV
    improved some internal single-shot scheduled job code
