KatchTV

This is a usability release that provides a fix for a regression in the display order of feeds, better highlighting of new episodes, and some minor bugfixes/improvements.

This version was partially rewritten. It is more
object oriented and has better stability. Mplayer
and all other KDE media players are supported. The
new Democracy Player Channel Guide is supported.
The UI is now more interactive, with better
feedback and information.

Multiple downloads at once, while you browse or watch shows. Better download progress, including estimated time. Bittorrent ("Broadcatching") support, for RSS feeds that have bittorrent enclosures of media. Many other enhancements and bugfixes.

This release adds a much nicer, friendlier user interface. It notifies
the user when a new version is available. It handles downloads of
unenclosed media items (or items from feeds to which you haven't
subscribed) just as well as subscribed feeds. If you later subscribe
to a feed, any items that you previously downloaded manually will take
their place in the feed. Version numbers are now easy to see. The "Ready
to Watch" page now shows file sizes, to help users manage their disk
space. This release saves subscribed channels and downloads in separate
data files, making it easy to reset one without affecting the other.

Scrollbars have been removed from the player page. The browser is prevented from loading raw data for unrecognised files. Many more feed types are handled more reliably. A timeout when parsing slow feeds has been added. Startup time has been dramatically improved. Better last update time for new feeds, so they're updated correctly. A trivial printf formatting problem that was preventing some downloads has been fixed.
