Many highlights, such as the new "Context Browser", providing handy information on the music you're currently listening to, the rewritten stream support, and our shiny new handbook!

ChangeLog
ADD: Additional volume slider for playlist window.

ADD: Global shortcut for play/pause action, as requested by multimedia-keyboard users (BR 79541).
CHG: Small player-window can be switched off now.
FIX: CollectionBrowser out of order after scanning.
FIX: TitleProxy partly rewritten. Should be more compatible with many streams and not be able to freeze the app any longer.
