Almost the end of another month & WACUP beta build 1.7.15.12686 (along with builds 12444, 12580, 12604 & 12678 during the month) is now with beta testers.

Better large / corrupted library handling, HTTPS streams & more.

Changelogs for all builds are at https://getwacup.com/changelog/

Getting the local library to be better behaved with large libraries (e.g. around 250K entries) also benefits smaller libraries allowing for things to just be snappier. Still more to try to optimise but it's much less likely to hang & trigger crashes now which is always welcome.

It hasn't been the smoothest of months with some builds definitely not meeting expectations & some of the regressions whilst trying to better change what #WACUP needs for itself going forward. Main thing is this new build has resolved those problems from the feedback I've gotten.

Finally I've gotten the remaining plug-ins from 5.666 to support HTTPS urls without some of the fudges I'd been using which has been too long coming (aka trawling docs) but should make things a bit nicer for those needing that support (e.g. playing podcasts without downloading).
