HTML Executable versions

v4.9.4 [Nov 13, 2016]
New compression method to bring more responsive ebooks: this method doesn't unpack data to memory fully but by chunks, which increases the loading speed of large files and the ebook's responsiveness. It is automatically selected by HTML Executable for compressing source files larger than 1 MB. You can also enable it for any source file thanks to the new file property: "Use streaming-compatible compression method".
Improved loading speed and memory usage when playing large audio and video files compressed in EXE files and not in external files.
Fixed random thread deadlock when compiling or starting a new project on some computers.
Removed the anti-debugger option which triggered some antivirus false positives.
Increased length of the "what's new" text in Web Update and tip about inserting multiple lines.
Improved scanning of source files when starting a new project.
Changed system ID method that uses the hard disk's manufacturer serial ID. Warning: this can break existing hardware-locked keys, you will have to provide your end users with new hardware-locked registration keys.
New global variable "herestartwebupt" for Web Updates: now you have a way to notify users that their publication has been updated after a successful web update. Check the documentation for an example.

Fixed: "Could not register tab" error at startup on Windows PC tablets.
