- Added support for 'auto start'.
- Added support for auto-start.
- In the script configuration, the user can configure Predator to automatically start into either pre-recorded mode or real-time mode without asking for confirmation.
- Added optional default preferences for real-time mode.
- Each preference can be individually pre-set in the configuration. Any values pre-set will have their prompts skipped when starting real-time mode.
- Preferences like 'alert database' and 'license plate format' can be skipped without providing a value by setting their default value to a single space.
- Preferences like alert database and license plate format can be skipped without providing a value by setting their default value to a single space.
- Predator can now be configured to automatically load into real-time mode after starting without any user intervention.
- For sake of debugging, messages will appear each time a prompt is skipped to inform the user why Predator is auto-starting.
- Yes/no preferences are no longer case-sensitive

### Dashcam Update

This update adds 'dash-cam mode' to Predator, which allows it to record video without processing license plates in real-time. This allows you to use your Predator system as a dash-cam while driving, then analyze the video later using 'pre-recorded mode'.

- Added the ability to detect and process multiple license per frame in real-time mode.
- Added the `print_detected_plate_count` configuration value to allow the user to change whether or not Predator will display the count of how many license plates it detects each round.
- This makes Predator significantly more efficient by increasing the amount of plates that can be detected per processing cycle, without significantly increasing the time required to process each cycle.

This update refines Predator's functionality, and focuses its purpose back on license plate and object recognition. Irrelevant features are moved to external programs that retain compatibility with Predator, but are entirely independent platforms. This update also emphasizes stability, reliability, and consistency.

- Removed 'information mode'
- All of the functionality of information mode has been moved to a new platform, called 'Assassin' in an effort to keep Predator focused and effective.

- Updated dash-cam mode.
- Added customizable frame-rate restrictions.
- Added a per-device configuration value to set a maximum allowed frame-rate. When this frame-rate is exceeded, Predator will throttle dash-cam recording to stay below the limit.

- For example, a frame-rate of 29.85 FPS can be configured to round up to 30 FPS because it is within 0.15 FPS
