Automatic playback
will make Calaym automatically retry playback after playback fails
*Whenever you start playback and playback is fails or stops, Calaym automatically will retry playback every minute.
*Pressing "Stop" will disable automatic playback, pressing "Play" will reactivate it.
*(When "Play next" is set, Calaym will not stop / disable "Automatic Playback", but remove your "Play next" command.)

Pause playback when switching to another user
Automatically pauses playback if you switch to another user ('Fast user switching'), and unpauses when switching back. Usefull if other users want to listen to different music or simply dislike your music. This feature will not necessarily be effective when still in the user selection screen.

Preferred pure crossfade duration
Sets the default time for crossfades (Does not include loading / seeking time). For short songs the duration is shortened automatically, or no crossfade applied at all.

Intro mode duration
Sets the duration to play each song for intro mode.

Enable random seeking in intro mode and for options below:
When using intro mode or ending songs after ... minutes (described below), playback of affected songs will start at a random position.

End streams/tracker/midi/cd audio after ... minutes
Ends songs after specified amount of playback time.

Check media length
Checks length of songs (streams) before playback, but will slowdown loading. Recommend for incomplete streams.

Tracker stereo panning (percentage)
sets the stereo panning for trackers. 100% for typical tracker behaviour.

Digital CD playback (cdda)
Digital playback needs more performance (enabling DMA may improve performance but may cause problems) but has several advantages:
*No audio cabel from the optical drive to the sound card required.
*Independence from the mixer settings of the sound card.
*audio data can be accessed by the spectrum analyzer.

Use Jitter correction (sector synchronisation)
Enable if you have playback issues (clicks, skips), but takes more performance.
