Presentations

Users can now use the automatic player tracking for annotations when using streamed media clips.
Some types of media that didn't work locally with auto-tracking will now work too.

Annotations in Presentations now have a fade in and fade out animation.

Improved fast forward and rewind behaviour

Fast forwarding in the Focus timeline using hotkeys will now be smoother.

The rewind and fast forward speeds can be adjusted in Settings > Controls > Step-size (S-XL).
