PS VITA / PSTV VitaDB Downloader v.2.5

VitaDB Downloader v.2.5 is out!

Changelog:

• Added a Crank icon nearby apps using AI.
• Added two new filters: "Apps using AI" and "Apps not using AI" for Vita homebrews.
• Moved to MariaDB IDs usage for the Favorites homebrew system: This means now applications with clashing TitleIDs can be properly put in the favorite list singularly.
• Added support to Favorites system for PSP homebrews.
• Reduced memory usage of the application.
• Updated to latest vitaGL commit.
• Made so that the search feature searches also inside homebrews/themes descriptions.
• Made so that the search feature is now cached, not impacting performance of the app.
• Made so that Vita applist and PSP applist are downloaded only when there's an update on the server (using If-Modified-Since HTTP header): this will make booting the app and switching to PSP apps way faster.
• Fixed a bug causing Favorites list and the daemon blacklist to get corrupted when deleting entries in some circumstances.
• Fixed a bug causing the blacklisted status to not be visually updated inside the app when blacklisting or whitelisting an application in certain circumstances.

VitaDB Downloader v.2.4 is out!

Changelog:

• Fixed a bug in the daemon causing the console to panic when downloading the homebrews list for scanning new updates. (Part of a v.2.3 hotfix)
• Added a progressbar and video time (current/total) info for the trailers player.
• Made so that when a trailer ends, the app will automatically transition back to the main apps list.
• Made so that the apps list downloader at boot will retry the download if it fails or gets stuck.
• Added a check for VitaDB state: now if the website is offline, the application will show a warning when launched.
• Fixed several bugs in the trailers player causing deadlocks or app crashes in certain circumstances.
• Made more robust the whole downloader logic: this should solve some edge cases leading to app softlocks.
• Added a custom header on VitaDB backend and implemented its usage in the app: this will make file size shown when downloading apps list be correct and not just guessed as it was before.
• Implemented a feature that allows to edit the daemon blacklist from the app itself: now an option will be available in the Manage menu of installed apps that will allow to blacklist or whitelist apps for the daemon.
• Added showing of the daemon blacklist state in the Info panel of the currently hovered application.
• Added proper support for update detection of applications made with LifeLua.
• Fixed empagination of the Manage submenu being inconsistent depending on how many options are available.

• Added "Favorites Apps" filter to the available Vita homebrews filters.
• Removed the "Apps with Trophies" filter from the PSP homebrews list: PSP homebrews can't have trophies so the filter would always return an empty list.

• Added the possibility to view Release Page and Sourcecode Page for homebrews (Available in the Manage submenu).

• Made so that the titlebars for the subwindows properly respect console button assignation for Cancel/Confirm.
• Fixed an issue causing memory corruption when swapping several times themes with animated backgrounds.
