Configuration - More settings - Miscellaneous
Run on windows startup

Register playlists

Register directories (open)
| Adds an 'Open in Calaym' entry in the context menu for directories.
Register directories (enqueue)
| Adds an 'Enqueue in Calaym' entry in the context menu for directories.
On empty playlist at startup
| Automatically opens either the player, open playlist or directory dialog, autorefresh dialog or internet radio interface if no music is available on startup.
Sort files and directories
| When activated, songs are always sorted before being added to the playlist. (Some operations 'ignore' this setting because sorting is required)
Ignore files and directories beginning with _ or #, or hidden (file attribute)
| will ignore those files and directories when reading directories.
Load/save playback settings with playlist
| will load/save some playback settings with the playlist.
Check for missing songs when loading playlists
| will check all files in the playlist before adding them to the playlist. Missing autorefresh entries are not affected.
Allow file deleting
| activates the possibility to delete files. The action performed is handled by Windows, depending on the settings for Recycle Bin. Depending on the version of Windows used, there may certain critical flaws. Please note that Calaym may temporarily refuse deleting songs after Calaym autoselects items, or during crossfades.
Changes to the playlist are shown
| This setting influences performance and may cause flickering (e.g. on the Windows Desktop). 'Periodically' and 'When done' are designed for slower computers, but should also increase performance on missing hardware acceleration.
Disable windows sounds
| while Calaym is running, or during MiniDisk record mode.

| When actually applied, sound settings will be stored in memory, plus a sound scheme entry will be created. Then scheme settings will be deleted from the registry
| When finishing, those settings will be restored, and the backup deleted.
| All sound changes made between backup and restoration will get lost!
| Calaym will restore your settings on startup / quitting as required. You can also restore it using the sound settings from the control panel.

Completely block the player window when loading songs (slightly faster loading)
| By enabling this, Calaym will not use multithreading functionality of the sound system, which may speed up loading but the program appears to be hung.
Process priority
| Sets the process priority for Calaym. A higher priority may have negative impact on other running programms or services.
