Features
- Added slider to change the cover size, or to disable covers in a view
- Show covers in the tracks and playlist views
- Out of the box connection to the EzeeCube by scanning the bar code (EzeeCube is a central entertainment hub and home cloud, see http://ezeecube.tv)
- Execute-when-ready: No more waiting for server startups: You can tap on the play button of offline content even when you are not yet connected. Once the server has started up and the remote control is connected, the item will be played
- Cache files and folders: the app now partially caches the "files and folders" view (only items that have been opened)
- Enable fullscreen mode when playing: Usually when playing a new track, Kodi leaves the fullscreen mode. With this setting, fullscreen mode can be forced when playing music
