### Important Windows users for old builds

If you're using the old build, please download a new build of MPV VVCEasy version.

This is a fix of Intel CPU users and updated version of libvvdec.

Some are now static and some are shared, because enabling static build is saying ld not found (eg. -lpython3.10) on MinGW MSYS2.

Special thanks to @ZenKiyoshi for Intel build bug. See the issue: #16

Another special thanks to @ZenKiyoshi for xHE-AAC support. Requested completed: #17
