v7.0.0-RC1

This is a major version update from v6.x, and it brings several changes. Keep in mind, this version is not recommended for slower platforms, you should prefer Amiberry-Lite for those (which will also get an update, after this one is finalized). Some of the most important changes in v7 are:

• Amiberry is now delivered as a package, instead of just an archive with binaries. This also means that you don't have to manually install the dependencies, before you can run it (the package will take care of that for you automatically). For Debian or Ubuntu based systems there's a .DEB package, for Fedora there's RPM and for macOS users, there are DMG images that can be used. You can now install Amiberry by downloading the archive, extracting it, and doing something like sudo apt install ./amiberry-XYZ.deb (for DEB). Upgrading to a newer version becomes as simple as installing it on top again. Uninstalling it is simple as well (sudo apt remove amiberry) and it will clean up the dependencies after it. Check the main README for instructions per platform.
• The directory structure handling has changed. Amiberry will now install itself into standard locations, placing shared libraries where they are expected in the system, and will use the user's HOME folder to create an Amiberry directory, if it doesn't exist. That will contain the user-configurable stuff, like directories for Floppy images, Harddrives, Configurations etc. Meanwhile, internal directories are placed elsewhere, to reduce clutter. Check the Wiki for more details: https://github.com/BlitterStudio/amiberry/wiki/Amiberry-directories
• The MacOS binaries are finally signed with an Apple-recognized developer certificate, and they are notarized. This means you no longer have to manually bypass the system's security, to allow it to run. You can just drag and drop it to your Applications and start it up like any other downloaded App. You'll only get a warning that this was downloaded from the Internet, as expected.
• Hi-DPI support has been added, so if you're running this on Linux with scaling enabled, or macOS Retina displays, things should look better now.
• Integer scaling has been added and improved. Check the wiki for more details on this as well.
• Serial port support has been fixed, as it was broken for some versions now.
• GUI Themes have been implemented, so you can now customize the color scheme.
• The whole list of Expansions from WinUAE have been implemented, including PPC, PCI, DSP, custom graphics cards, network cards, SCSI controllers, etc. The Expansion panel was refactored significantly, but the functionality is trying to match the same one from WinUAE, to make things easier between the two emulators.

🎉 New Features

• Implemented the full functionality of the Expansions GUI panel
• Implemented SLIRP support
• implemented SERIAL_ENET functionality
• added Shared serial option
• added internal serial options
• Added PPC support from WinUAE (needs QEmu plugin)
• Added PCEM support from WinUAE, with fixes for ARM/ARM64 added on top
• Added PCI support from WinUAE
• Added MAME (a2410 and TM34010) from WinUAE
• Added QEMU (various gfx cards, network cards, SCSI, etc) from WinUAE
• Added DSP emulation (disabled for now)
• Added SANA2 support (not visible in the GUI yet)
• Merged the latest updates from WinUAE 5.3.1
• The directory structure used is now changed, to be more standardized. User-configurable folders are now created on startup under the User's HOME folder. Shared libraries will be placed in the expected location based on the system used. The old directory structure included in the repository is cleaned up, as empty directories are no longer needed.
• Implemented GUI Themes. You can now customize the colors of the GUI, and save those in separate theme files.

v5.7.2

🐛 Bugfixes

• Fixed bug where custom options from a .uae config file would not get applied, when loading a WHDLoad title. The XML settings overwrote custom options, no more! Now any custom options found in a config file (such as overriding custom field values), will be applied after the XML settings. This fixes issues with games that don't yet have updated information in the XML (e.g. BattleIsle needs an 020 config, and custom1=3 to function). (fixes #1343)
• Fixed a crash when saving a config file, in some cases. (fixes #1345)

🔨 Improvements

• Improved WHDLoad Config handling. Amiberry will now only attempt to parse WHDLoad options from a config file, if such settings are found.
• When selecting a CD32 model from Quickstart, the joystick port is automatically set to CD32 mode as well. This makes it easier to just get into emulation, without having to change that option from the Default mode to CD32 yourself (which you probably want, when emulating a CD32). (fixes #1346)

v5.7.0

🎉 New Features

• Added new custom events for Disk Swapper. Two new events were added, Insert Next / Previous disk swapper slot. These allow you to select the next/previous slot and also insert it into DF0: in one step.
• Added default path for LHA archives (fixes #1234). This allows you to set a default path that will be used to load WHDLoad .lha files, for use with the WHDBooter.
• added default Floppy, CD-ROM and Hard Drive paths
• Added option to use "System Default" audio device (fixes #1241). This new checkbox in the GUI (Sound panel) will not choose a specific audio device, and instead tell SDL2 to pick the system default one. This helps with systems that may have sound devices that are not listed in the dropdown.
• Added new WHDLoad panel in GUI. This panel exposes the options that the WHDBooter uses, and allows changes to the slave options before launching a title. The Custom Fields can also be customized from this area. All information is parsed from the same XML that Amiberry uses to match the WHDLoad titles.
• Added new "Save Mapping" button in Custom Controls. This allows you to save the current mapping for the selected controller as the default, which will be automatically loaded on startup (if the controller is connected).
• Detect WHDLoad, CD and floppy disk images as parameters in the command line. As a fall back, you can now pass the path to a supported image filename, and it will be loaded automatically. This makes it possible to set Amiberry as the default handler for such files (e.g. .lha, .adf, .adz, .ipf, .cue, .iso, etc.). WHDLoad and CD images trigger the autoloader, while floppy disk images will be loaded into DF0:
• If a config file that matches the inserted disk image exists, it will be loaded
  automatically. Otherwise the default one will be used instead. This also makes it easy
  to save a config after you've loaded a disk image, since the panel will be populated
  with the right name already.
• Added support for custom font colors in the GUI theme

🐛 Bugfixes

• catch GUI exceptions properly. Previously if a GUI exception occurred, it would trigger a crash to the console. Now it will catch the exception, log the error and also output the result in the console.
• Data path wasn't parsed in WHDBooter (fixes #958). The "datapath" property wasn't parsed during the startup-sequence creation, when using the WHDBooter feature.
• The aspect ration option was not respected during Auto-Crop (fixes #1235)
• ensure the joystick name is handled gracefully if it's null or invalid (fixes #1246)
• ensure ".." is always present in file/folder dialogs, after refactoring
• return an empty string in case the file/folder dialog was cancelled
• file/folder dialogs would briefly show a scrollbar on startup, then hide it
• Fixed Dispmanx targets failing to compile after recent changes
• Fixed the Enter key would no longer trigger a KEYDOWN event in the GUI (fixes #1249). This was a bug since 5.6.7, introduced with some updates in the guisan library. The ENTER key is also faked when pushing the controller buttons A/B, so this effectively disabled selecting anything in the GUI with a controller.
• Fixed a memory leak when closing a filesys unit
• Fixed various bugs in the Dispmanx implementation (RetroPie)
• ensure the savestate filename is never empty
• don't crash if no kickstarts are found on startup. This was triggered after the
  recent refactoring of the Scan ROMs function.
• Using Dispmanx with Auto-Height and with the "Keep aspect ratio" option disabled,
  would result in a black screen.
• ensure that controller axes that report no name, get a default one anyway. This caused a crash with the Steam controller, which reports 8 axes but only 6 of them get a name, through SDL2. This way, they will get a default name of "Axis #" + number.
• Fixed parallel port joysticks D-Pad input was incorrectly mapped to ports 0/1. This has been around for several versions, but it's finally fixed now.
• Fixed navigation in Floppy panel
• Floppy dropdown panels would show recently loaded configs also
• GUI theme colors were not applied to all widgets
• if you selected a WHDLoad file from the GUI, and it had a config file previously saved, it wouldn't apply it
• If Cancel was used in a file/folder dialog, the path would be emptied on return
• increase width of text fields in HWInfo panel (fixes #1269)
• Listbox selection color was hardcoded when inactive (fixes #1270)
• initialize custom field value to zero, otherwise we would get random numbers if it's not defined
• Virtual Keyboard did not respect Auto-Crop (fixes #1273)
• "Start in Quickstart" checkbox would not change status (fixes #1274)
• magic mouse without virtual mouse driver would not release pointer (fixes #1278)
• some Display option changes would not apply after exiting GUI (e.g. Smooth/Pixelated)
• All A600 quickstart configs would always incorrectly add Fast RAM (fix #1282)
• only create default HDD device name if we don't have one already (fixes #1284)
• dmx needs wait_for_display_thread() in more places

🔨 Improvements

• Improve sizes of Select File/Folder dialogs. The dialog sizes are now larger, and hold more entries.
• added retroarch config file path in the log
• do not temporarily unhide the cursor and hide it again when capturing mouse
• Improved SaveState and Screenshot file handling
• If Dispmanx or KMSDRM is detected, force Full-Window mode. These back-ends only supported full-window mode anyway, so this way it's clear in the prefs and GUI as well, that this is what you're using.
• Don't change the width/height values of the Amiga screen in the GUI, based on the amigawin_rect values.
• Don't always try to open "default.uae" on startup, if the file doesn't exist
• Show the selected Floppy Disk in the GUI, when started from command line.
• populate GUI with WHDLoad command line options
• When loading a config, scroll list enough to make it visible.
• Added scroll area in HW Info panel
• improved look of disabled buttons, dropdowns and checkboxes in GUI
