Added a new mode for UI Clients to reduce the number of network calls required (faster for clients that support this mode)
Added new web UI Client at http://localhost:8866/uiclient.html. This is for laptop/desktop users (not mobile/tablet users). Server must be fast enough to transcode in real time for this feature.
