The preferences menu

prefsmenuqj7.png

This menu gives you access to all the settings that establish the behaviour of types of commands. Most of these you will probably not need to touch when you first start using the package, others you will want to set as personal defaults and some you will want to set for a single use only. Each section of preferences comes in two flavours, ordinary and advanced. The ordinary preferences are settings for the simpler parameters of the application, the advanced settings require some deeper knowledge to use them effectively.

  • Audio - which audio to play through which channels,
  • Video - which video to play through which channels,
  • Input / Codecs - how to interpret the video file/stream,
  • Stream output - setting up a specific type of output,
  • Advanced - as it says,
  • Playlist - managing a short list of files for easy and quick access,
  • Interface - choosing and configuring the alternate interfaces
