New in 1.7b5

Implemented partial compatibility with 4Dv15:
- Works with 4D Mono, 4D Remote/4D Server 32 bit on Mac OS and Windows.
- With 4D Server 64 bit on Windows there is a crash when 4D Server quits.
- Support for 4D Server 64 bit on Mac OS has not been implemented yet.

New in 1.7b4

Improved movie controller display and responsiveness on Mac OS.
Fixed a bug where if the movie plug-in area was placed on a form page other than the current one the movie would still be visible in the current page.
The movie plug-in area now correctly handles the OBJECT SET VISIBLE 4D command.
Implemented event handling in the movie plug-in area via the event handler callback method and associated commands (QM_GetEventHandler/QM_SetEventHandler).
Support of license keys.

New in 1.7b3

Implemented sequence grabbing on Mac OS.
- Audio grabbing is now done with the new "audi" sound digitizer instead of the deprecated "soun" component. QMedia converts the qm_SoundMediaType ("soun") identifier to "audi" internally whenever that is specified as a sequence grabber media type.
- Sequence grabbing on Windows is dropped due to the longstanding lack of support for "vdig" drivers from hardware manufacturers.
Fixed a crash in QM_FlattenMovie.
Implemented the QM_GetVideoMediaCompression and QM_SetVideoMediaCompression commands.

New in 1.7b2

Fixed a bug in QM_TestMovieFile where it would unconditionally return error -43 (file not found).
Implemented the QM_GetPosterPict and QM_GetMoviePict commands.

New in 1.7b1

Compatibility with 4D v14.
Unicode support.
Support for 4D's new picture variable format.

Changes in 1.7b1

The movie and its controller bar can no longer be placed individually in the plug-in area using the QM_SetMovieRect and QM_SetControllerRect commands. The controller bar is now always located underneath the movie, and their placement in the plug-in area is controlled by the QM_SetMoviePlacement command.
