Bug Fixes.

Introducing three great new features in version 1.10 of DirectorStudio. - Picture in Picture - Allows displaying a continuous feed from any of the built in cameras. The Slide content, transitions, images, video, text all are displayed beneath the PIP window. Selecting the camera, size, location and more can be configured manually or as part of an Action from a general slide, an ad hoc slide or from a control board button. - ATEM Mini Control Panel - With an ATEM configured and connected the ATEM Mini Control Panel may be displayed. This allows accessing all of the Control board buttons, HomeKit buttons, ATEM Mini Controls and Macros without the Event details taking up valuable screen real estate. This is most helpful when the focus is on controlling an event with the ATEM rather than presenting content for the event. If an UVC HDMI device is also connected it may also be displayed along side of the various control buttons. The ATEM Mini Control Panel can even be launched from the Event list which allow controlling the ATEM without an Event loaded. - Enhanced Label to Speech - Director Studio has always allowed a Slide to speak an introductory text phrase. Now each label can also speak its text if desired. If multiple labels are selected to speak they will read in sequence left to right and top to bottom. This aides greatly in automated presentations that are meant for auto-playback.
