Himawari Downloader 1.1.1

Just a small update of the used URLs from http to https to maintain functionality.

Himawari Downloader 1.1

This small release adds a new, valuable feature:
you are now able to download a shoreline for your selected region as well. It will be saved to three seperate files (Shoreline_00ff00.png, Shoreline_ff0000.png & Shoreline_ffff00.png) so you can add them over your footage in the editor of your choice and exactly in the way you want.

Also the error handling during the download is further optimized which may reduce the amount of failed frames.

After starting some months ago and adding some features in the last couple of days, the first feature-complete* version of my Himawari-Downloader is pubished 😎🥂🎉

*(all small features and optimizations I could think of for now)

Here are some highlights:

• simple starttime and date selection
• choose between RGB information or any of the 16 different colorbands
• fast preview of the first frame
• select from different resolutions
• easy selection of region of interest
• custom timesteps
• download any amount of frames
• continue an earlier download by choosing your starting frame

And here some 'under the hood' optimizations:

• download the different tiles of an image in parallel to optimize speed (up to 10x faster than in the earlier versions)
• automatic removal of "No Image" files
• simple to read .txt with timestamp for every frame (to be able to add this information in your final footage with ease)

If you use this software to create your own time-lapses I would love to see it 😄 If you tell me about it on github or e.g. under this YT-video I would really appreciate it 😊

And as always: feedback and ideas for additional features welcome 😉
