Changes in 4.8
Major changes

Add support for streaming directly from bittorrent peer-to-peer network.
Improved HLS streamer, in particular better support for live streams and quicker adaption between bitrates.
New javascript engine for plugins (http://duktape.org) which is actively maintained and offers much better support than Spidermonkey. Spidermonkey is now deprecated and will be removed for 5.0 so plugin authors are urged to port their plugins.
Major rewrite of user interface rendering code. This is a preparation for Showtime 5.0 which will sport a new user interface.

Minor changes

It's now possible to turn off automatic browsing of archives (ZIP and RAR) as folders.
It's now possible to configure the amount of time Showtime skips when seeking backward and forwards. Settings available in settings -> video playback.
Since February 2014 (Showtime version 4.5.108), clearing metadata does not erase playcount, resume point, etc.
Update the 'Clear metadata...' -warning text to reflect this.

So far much of the Showtime APIs are lacking when plugins run in this engine.
