NOTE:
When you enable the Wiinnertag in the settings a prompt will come up if the Wiinnertag.xml does not exists in the setup path for it. This prompt will ask you if you want an example file created by the loader which you can adjust to your account (I suggest you create one on first use). Multiple/Other tag sites can be setup in the xml file and loader will execute them all one after another. Also Wiinnertag requires a network connection established to be working. When you enable this feature and auto network init is disabled you will be prompted to enable it.

*Added some arguments acception from meta.xml to our app. "-ios=xxx" and "-usbport=x" or "--ios=xxx" and "--usbport=x" can be used. -usbport is for Hermes cIOS to decide which usb port to use on startup. The ios is the boot IOS on startup, it always overrides the compiled boot IOS into the application.
*Reverted USB port auto detection through ehcmodule which was added in R1085, it breaks BlackOps on Hermes cIOS (thx s.v.groeneveld for testing)
*Added "Import categories from WiiTDB" function to the global settings as last entry. It will import the categories available in wiitdb.xml as <genre> for your games and assign your games automatically to the categories they are assigned to in wiitdb.xml.

*Fixed reset of the loader when loading game with IOS reload and disabled WiiTDB titles (Issue 1874)

*Added the new 'Return to' procedure for the d2x v4 IOS for Test purpose (didn't test it, need feedback on this one). The old method is used if this procedure fails. Please test it on problematic games (e.g. PoP). (Issue 1892)
Changelog for R1076:
*Fixed case sensitivity issue on game id compare
*Convert all game ids to upper case when reading from files/folders
*Reverted ntfs ignore case sensitivity setting
*Fixed wiimote2.png not being shown on game info
*Fixed titles being reloaded to game titles when setting titles from wiitdb to off
*Recut the credits music for better loop timing (thanks to Black.Pearl for doing that)
*update of ehcmodules for Hermes IOS supporting now more drives (thanks rodries again)
*added ignore case sensitivity on NTFS (hopefully it works as good as it sounds)
*fixed homebrew receiving in homebrew launcher via network
*changed video switching code to the one from Wiiflow
*allow ',' as floating point '.'
*Fix of reloading titles after wiitdb update
*reset all other button clicks on carousel when two or more buttons are clicked at once
*a few code optimizations
*fixed compile bug on OSX (Issue 1844 and Issue 1132)
*language files updated
*Use of DirList class for homebrew listing instead of using it's own custom version of it
*Reverted back to libntfs version 2010-10-2 because the new version of NTFS-3G is not writing files correct on some drives causing the files it writes to be corrupted.
*Changed title/channel browser to use WiiTDB for displaying title names if no name is found in WiiTDB the old method is used
*Updated some language files
*Added a "Details" button on the GameWindowPrompt which calls the game info window
*Added a cache titles setting. You can disable caching titles with that. Also when re-enabling this option the cache file is newly generated. This is there so it is possible to reset a false cached title without having to delete the "TitlesCache.bin"
*Added button 2 on zoom mode of 3D Boxes to rotate the box fast by 180°
*Increased speed for box rotating with WiiMote D-Pad
*Fixed freeze in theme menu when its empty
*Optimized the game list loading on fat/ntfs/ext. This should speed up the loading process.
*Added cache of game titles. This will speed up the startup after the cache file is written (in other words on second start of this rev). A TitlesCache.bin will be created in the same path as the wiitdb.xml for this. This should especial speed up the startup of fat/ntfs/ext partitions by a lot if no sub folders with the game titles are used, like GAMEID.wbfs only. That must have been painfully slow before on a lot of games. Should be at about the same speed as with sub folders now. I would still recommend to use sub folders.
*Removed wiilight (disc slot) blinking when switching USB port on Hermes cIOSes (thanks rodries)
*Added the ehcmodule sources from rodries to the branches
*Updated language files
*Added support for using both USB ports at once (ONLY ON HERMES CIOS)
Big thanks to rodries for writing the necessary ehcmodules!
NOTE: You can change port of USB device in the Loader Settings. The loader currently does not support loading configs off port 1 (only from port 0)
If you select to use both usb ports the loader will switch between ports automatically, on demand. It is not possible to use both ports at once currently. Right now the wiilight blinks each time it switches the port. I will talk to rodries and see if we can disable it. Using the "both ports" option only makes sense in combination with "Multiple Partitions" option. In that case all games on all partitions from BOTH HDDs will be loaded. I think I don't have to say that switching between ports and loading all games is slower than normal mode with one port only in use. You might wanna just set one port and switch yourself when you need to. Well the option for both ports (automatic switching) is there for the lazy ones who don't like to hit the settings button ;).
*Reworked the cover downloader completely. Now has an overall missing files count and progress. Also missing files not found on the server can be dumped to a csv file
*Added possibility to grad 3D Boxes and move them around in the zoomable mode

*Changed the prompt window to a class
*Changed cover download to a checkbox selection of what you want to download. Changed discart download option to only switch between what is prioritized (original/customs)
*Fixed a little alignment issue of the progressbar
*Reverted the change for check disc in drive. Some drives couldn't handle it in IOS58 mode :\.
*Changed playcount from an 8 bit to a 32 bit counter (got 8bit by mistake) which limited it to 255
*a few little optimisations
*Reworked almost everything about alternate DOL loading (I am wondering how loading from SD/USB even worked)
*Added new Option "Default" for alternate DOL which is now the default settings. This setting will select the alternate DOL automatically for games like Red Steel 1 because this alt. DOL is always needed to play the game. On games where the alt dol option is not needed the option "Default" = "OFF". This is just an attempt to make this option more automatic. Games like Metroid Prime (the only game right now) will have a prompt on game start where you choose between 1, 2 or 3 on this option because this game always requires either of these.
*Small source cleanups/fixes
*Changed to update disc drive status only 1 time per second in the main menu (instead of every ~100ns)

*Removed a few unused setting variables
*Updated some language files
*WiiMote desync problem fixed
*Removed "free space warning prompt" on fat32 partitions now
*Changed default free space option to ON
*Remove id button on other layouts than list view

*Fixed crash on formatting drive to WBFS
*A few source/function movement from one file to another
*Renamed global game settings to "Loader Settings"

*Several small bug fixes and cleanups
*Fixed "Bannersound + BG Music after it" mode
*Updated language files
*Added initialized too all the cheat variables (that was bad...i wonder how it didn't go wrong)
*Corrected several theme texts (x, y position mistype)
*Added "Default" button to theme downloader to reset the theme
*Fixed bug in loading language file with fresh configs
*Fixed display of theme path in custom path options
*Fixed rockout reset after leaving the GameWindowPrompt
*Added limit to page indicators to 5 and rotate them
*changed fat/ntfs/ext installer to use the header title as foldername instead of wiitdb title (this is the way it is in the wbfs managers)
*Fixed language changing for wiitdb titles / coverdownload even without available .lang file which is loaded
*Added reload of game titles on language change
*Added check for valid config files. If config file is not valid it will not be used. Current valid configs are R1031 to all. (You configs will be reseted with this. If you want to save them, move them and merge them afterwards manually.)
*Fixed possible crash on mounting
*Changed default settings for device free space display to off, because fat32 partitions are very slow on that. Added a warning when on FAT partition and trying to enable this option.
*Updated langauge files
