  Addition: Allows videos to be removed from the database. Please note that if the video 
    you are removing is still in one of the library paths, it will be added again during the next
    rescan, so you have to either move it outside of the library paths, or define it as an exclusion.
  Addition: Videos that no longer exist on the disk are marked with red color. Videos that reside
    on unmounted volumes are shown in gray color.
  Addition: Tools/Manage locked files, displays a list of files that could not be opened or could 
    not be processed. You have the option to re-test those files.
  Bug fix: User-defined video extensions were not saved
