----v4.0 update instructions----

  • "Built-in Wallpaper" changed to "Wallpaper"
  • Added animation when wallpaper thumbnails are loading
  • Add thumbnail preview of video, mouse over thumbnail to play preview
  • Added history function, now used custom wallpapers will be displayed in the "Wallpaper" column.
    • The file type is limited by space. So it's only the last time used is kept.
    • An unlimited number of URL types can be saved (but the huge number of records may still exceed the storage limit and cause an error. The specific number of URLs that can be saved is related to many factors, such as user's disk size, URL length, etc.)
  • History will automatically put the most recently used first, you can delete a single history record by clicking the X button on the thumbnail
  • When selecting in the "Wallpaper" field, the background will instantly preview the selected wallpaper now
  • Fixed the problem of random sorting of wallpapers
  • Fixed an issue where the settings need to be re-saved before they can be used due to mismatched configuration files after an update. (The "version" attribute is added to the configuration file. When the configuration file version does not match the updated version, the configuration file will be automatically updated now)
