What's new in V3.4

Legacy shows just work — Jinx stores image/video paths relative to its working folder, so old shows loaded with blank media. V3.4 intercepts every file open and relinks missing scene media from next to the .jnx. Old shows' images & videos appear again.
Per-show layout — Show Mode sections / colours / order / hidden flags now save per show (sidecar next to the .jnx). Opening a different or legacy show no longer scatters buttons with another show's layout.
FADE IN / OUT — latching button: smoothly ramps the master out to black and back over the Fade Time slider, fully reversible. Pulses only while fading, stops the instant it's done.
SCENE X FADE — toggles Jinx's scene-to-scene crossfade on/off (✓ on / ✗ off; right-click to flip the indicator if it reads backwards on your rig).
Live FPS selector — 20 / 25 / 30 in the Show Mode side column (the old floating panel is gone). Change frame rate live mid-output; selected rate ticked; affects every output incl. the screen/DVI feed. Safe timer-handle virtualisation, never disturbs playback.
Carried over from V3.2/V3.3: chases first-class ([C] tag), Hide buttons + Edit Mode, named sections, Ctrl-drag reorder, BLACKOUT + STROBE with latch pulses & flash peek-through, matrix up to 1024×1024 (1 MP), fixed Help → Contents (F1), mod-aware About dialog.

Nothing in the scene editor, chase editor or output drivers is changed. .jnx projects work fine in vanilla Jinx, V3 and V3.4.
