Build Highlights:

1. New videodb schema, #91. The db upgrade isn't working for me (duplicate actors) but could be due to my library and/or database (MySQL), so please test and report any problems particularly if SQLite. If you experience a problem drop the new db and revert to a previous build.
   
2. Latest anti-scrolling fix from menakite - should work more reliably for all types of scrolling field. Thanks menakite and popcornmix.
