  • Added: Brand new ECC Video Player, you can now add a MP4/FLV file to your ROM!

  • Added: integrated EmuMovie Downloader, with this tool integrated in ECC you can finally make your ROM artwork/images complete, you'll need an account on EmuMovies (registration is free)

  • Added: a new feature to jump to a page directly (instead of scrolling trough all of them)

  • Added new platforms:

  • Apple Macintosh

  • Atari Falcon

  • Nintendo e-Reader

  • Sega Model 3

  • Added filextensions:

  • Casio PV-1000: BIN

  • Epoch Super Cassette Vision: BIN

  • Nintendo Wii: WBFS

  • Amstrad CPC: ROM

  • Added: internal feature for the 'use .cue' option to look if there is a .cue file available if not then use normal extension.

  • Added: a new option in ECC config to set the 'big filesize' parsing trigger to use the internal parser (PHP) or the external parser (autoit3) after a size limit. NOTE: PHP could crash if this is set to high!

  • Added: a new option in ECC config to set the 'text cutt off' in the IMAGE TAB in the 'main view' to give a better view if you have one or more long names/titles.

  • Added: SSF to be the default emulator for Sega Saturn. (also added website info's)

  • Changed: 'cover_inlay_03' to 'cover_3d', this fits better for the 3d cover images.

The COM objects are needed because the Windows 'start /b' does not function properly on every Windows OS, so there fore we use the 'new' COM objects. The replacement of FSUM is now a Autoit3 CRC32 wrapper, wich is a bit slower but works flawlessly!
