 A much better mechanism to find emulators and emulator cores has been implemented as well, which among other things removes the need to manually modify the Path variable on Windows to find RetroArch. It also eliminates the requirement for a separate Flatpak-specific es_systems.xml file on Linux.
 
-The User guide contains additional in-depth explanations of the new functionality.
+There are also several changes under the hood, such as the addition of the CImg image processing library, automatic code formatting of the entire codebase using clang-format, change of language standard from C++11 to C++14 and lots of general code refactoring.

 * Added a new video player based on FFmpeg
 * Added a 60 FPS frame rate upscaler option to the video player which results in slightly smoother playback for low frame rate videos (e.g. 24 and 30 FPS)
 * Implemented a new mechanism for locating emulators and cores, with configurable find rules (this eliminates some hacks such as the separate Flatpak es_systems.cfg file)

 * Added a workaround for a game launch issue on Windows when using AMD and Intel GPUs
 * Moved to the SDL GameController API which gives numerous improvements to the controller handling
 * Default controller configuration is now automatically applied, input configuration should rarely if ever be required any longer except for deliberate button customization

 ### Bug fixes
 
 * Marking all games as favorites for a system or folder or removing all favorite markings would sometimes crash the application
-* Attempting to load a non-existent font file defined by the theme crashed the application instead of using the bundled fallback font
+* Scraping new game media using the single-game scraper followed by a re-scrape that was aborted could crash the application
+* The scraper search could be refined or skipped after the result was accepted which sometimes crashed the application
+* Attempting to load a non-existent font file defined by the theme crashed the application instead of using the bundled font as fallback
+* Refining a search before it was completed and then cancelling the dialog would lead to an empty scraper screen
 * Games that were filtered out were included in the random game selection for the grouped custom collections view
 * After switching theme sets with only a single system available, diagonal slide transitions would sometimes play when moving to the system view
 * Ongoing slide transition animations would continue to play after switching theme sets

-**Note:** As of ES-DE v1.1 there is no internationalization support, which means that the application will always require the physical rather than the localized path to your home directory. For instance on macOS configured for the Swedish language /Users/myusername will be the physical path but /Användare/myusername is the localized path that is actually shown in the user interface. The same is true on Windows where the directories would be C:\Users\myusername and C:\Användare\myusername respectively. If attempting to enter the localized path for any directory-related setting, ES-DE will not be able to find it. But it's always possible to use the tilde `~` symbol when referring to your home directory, which ES-DE will expand to the physical location regardless of what language you have configured for your operating system. If you're using an English-localized system, this whole point is irrelevant as the physical and localized paths are always identical.

+The actual procedure to map the inputs should be self-explanatory, just follow the on-screen instructions. But note that custom button mappings will not change the help prompts.
 
 Any custom configuration is applied per unique device ID (GUID). So if two identical controllers are used with ES-DE, both will have the same configuration applied. If connecting controllers of the same type but of different revisions, the GUID may differ and therefore the custom configuration would need to be applied to each device individually.
 
-Note that custom button mappings will not change the help prompts.

 If you have issues with your input configuration, as a last resort you can reset all the mappings by deleting or renaming the file ~/.emulationstation/es_input.xml.
