1.340

1.335-1.340
Update Libraries
Update .Net Version to 4.8
Add Kodi 20 Remote Control (currently same as 19)

Fix for PVR/Live TV not showing NowPlaying screen. Was related to artwork changes.
Updated Kodi 19 and Kodi 20 remote controls to fix.

Confirmed that:
Now Playing info working.
Remote Control working.
Movie/Tv Show Database downloads artwork, and enables Play Back
Fanart Server displays (fanart depending on what is selected on Kodi working).
(See manual for setup the add-on Service in Kodi once FrontView is installed)

Plug: For DDC Control - added sometime ago...
If you haven't got it enabled - you really should....

This is a low level Hardware control of the Screens Contrast and Brightness levels.
Frontview - dims to black its screen, if selected when playback starts, but this can still leave a bright blank screen
If you enable DDC Control (in Amp/DDC settings) it will dim as usual, but once dim is completed will then drop brightness and contrast
of screen to 0 (it uses hardware controls on the monitor itself).
Turning off the backlight - exactly the same as if you had turned down the brightness and contrast screen settings., manually on the monitor/screen.
If Paused, or playback stops - screen will return to normal and display dims up.

(Unfortunately this isn't supported by all screens/graphics cards it would seem - exactly the issue is hard to track down. Hence the test button in the Settings Screen)
