Use Media Title if Available (Replacing the file name)
Zoom Player reads Media TAG (meta-data) information from supporting Audio and Video files. With this setting enabled and Zoom Player identifying a "Title" TAG, the media Title is used instead of the media's file name in the playlist interfaces.

Hide Playlist entry numbers
By default, Zoom Player numbers each entry in the playlist editor. By enabling this setting, the playlist editor will no longer display the entry numbers.

Hide Playlist media duration (length)
By default, Zoom Player tried to extract a media's duration and display it next to the media's title or file name. By enabling this setting, the playlist editor will no longer display the media's duration.

Hide File Extensions
This setting controls whether file extensions (".AVI" for example) are visible in the Playlist editor.

Show Search Box on the Playlist Editor
The Playlist editor has a small search box at the bottom. This setting control if the search box visibility.

Remember Playlist items when Exiting the player
When enabled, Zoom Player will save/restore the active playlist when closing/running.

Remember the last played item when saving / loading (ZPL) Playlists
Enabling this setting ensures that the previously playing media in a playlist will resume once the playlist is re-loaded and played.

Opening file / directory from the user interface clears the Playlist (otherwise append to the list)
Usually, when opening a new file (using one of Zoom Player's open functions), Zoom Player will clear the playlist. If this setting is Disabled new items are appended to the end of the playlist.

Appending files into the Playlist plays the new track
With the setting above set to Append files rather than clear the playlist, enabling this setting instructs Zoom Player to start playing the newly appended files instantly (instead of just queuing the files).

Opening files externally (Command Line / Explorer) clears the Playlist (otherwise append)
When opening files from external programs, this setting controls whether Zoom Player clears the playlist. When this setting is disabled, Zoom Player will append the files to the end of the playlist.

Don't check if a file exists when loading it into the Playlist (faster)
When adding a file to the playlist, Zoom Player first checks if the file actually exists. This is a safety precaution, but under some conditions (certain network configurations), it may not be able to identify if the file exists properly. In such cases, you may want to disable the file check. Checking if a file exists also takes a bit of processing time, something you would only notice when dealing with large playlists. Enabling this setting enables faster loading of large playlists.

Continue to the next item on the Playlist when an invalid file is played (otherwise show error)
By default, Zoom Player will show an error dialog when it fails to load a media file. With this setting enabled, Zoom Player will skip the error message and try playing the next media in the playlist.

Move the Playlist Editor display to follow the currently playing media file
When enabled, Zoom Player will scroll the Playlist editor file listing to make sure the currently playing file is always visible.

Screen-Center Playlist when switching to Fullscreen / Zoom mode
When enabled, switching to fullscreen or zoom mode while the playlist editor is visible centers the playlist editor within the fullscreen area.

Override Skin Colors

Override Skin Font
When enabled, you can override the Playlist Editor font type and size.
