0001960: Cannot playback demos from previous versions of Zandronum.
When trying to play a demo via Doomseeker that was recorder in Zandronum 1.2.2 or earlier I get the error message "Unknown demo header 253!".
1) Open Doomseeker and press the big, blue play button.
2) Select a demo that was recorded with an earlier version of Zandronum and try to play it.
3) And... yes... You'll see what happens.
No tags attached.

I believe demo's break between versions as protocols change. Could be wrong here.

I also think Dusk made ZCinema to allow users to hook into other versions of zandronum to replay demos.

Simply the result of upgrading the codebase each major release. Perhaps when gzdoom parity is no longer required the demos will be stagnant.
