What's new in this version:

Fixed:
- visual glitches when scrolling lists horizontally with mouse wheel through Logitech software
- failure to install components from store-mode (uncompressed) zip archives
- a bug causing alt+f4 (and possibly other keyboard events) to be disregarded if mouse pointer is above specific interactive portion of a window (list controls, buttons in editboxes)
- text truncation in ReplayGain Scanner preferences page

- Improved output format negotiation with exclusive output
- Improved handling of malformed FLAC files, prevented crash from too many cuesheet entries
- Correct reporting of AC3 channel count in MP4 files even without AC3 component installed (before it would incorrectly report stereo)
- Allowed UTF-8 cuesheets without UTF-8 header
- Fixed htmlspecialchars misuse in component update list / component page link
- Mapped MP4 @mvn field to "movement name"
- Prevented the same folder from being added more than once to the Media Library
- Properties dialog: deferred logging of user-entered field names for the dropdown list until the tags are saved, effectively preventing typos from being remembered
- Improved handling of files with malformed APE tags - some files were entirely unplayable
- More thorough 'remove tags' for Vorbis, Opus and Musepack
- Made possible to add attached pictures by drag and drop to relevant Properties dialog page
