This release includes a big new feature to display custom scenes. This has been a lot of work in the background over a few months so I'm happy to release the first version for you to play with. I expect there will be some issues and teething problems as there is a lot of complexity and no doubt I have not done enough testing.

I expect this feature to improve over time as I add more features and customisations to it. I am happy to hear all feedback, but for this beta release I will be focussing on fixing bugs and getting the feature stable rather than adding lot of new things (which will come later).
