Frame capture (screenshot) save path
By specifying a path in this field, Zoom Player will attempt saving any frame captures into this directory. If no directory is specified, the images will be saved to the "My Documents" directory.

Auto Segment Load
Zoom Player has the capability to automatically load additional file segments according to their naming scheme. This dialog allows you to specify naming masks that Zoom Player should attempt to find when opening the first file. For more information, click on the Question Mark button next to the dialog.

Alternative path for media chapter files
By default Zoom Player looks for Media Chapter files in the same directory as the media you are opening. However, if you have media files on a CD that you would like to add chapter information to, or would prefer a single location for all chapter files, specifying a path here will have Zoom Player looking in the specified directory if the original directory doesn't contain a chapter file.

Default media open path (file open / file navigator)
Setting a directory path into this entry will force Zoom Player's Open Dialog and File Navigation interfaces to always start at this path (instead of restoring the last saved path).

Folder image base name
The default entry for this value is "folder", which means that if a folder image is to be used, it needs to be named "folder.jpg", "folder.png" or "folder.bmp". By modifying this base name to "cover", "cover.jpg", "cover.png" and "cover.bmp" will be used instead. One thing to note is that if a file name has an accompanying image (for example "mymusic.mp3" and "mymusic.jpg") then that image will be displayed instead of the folder image.

Default folder image file
If a media file is loaded with no video track, Zoom Player will look for "folder.jpg", "folder.png" or "folder.bmp" file in the same directory to display as a background. If such a file is not found and one is specified here, it will be loaded instead.

Default definition file
When trying to load a definition file for Media or DVD content and no file is found, specifying a file name in this entry will have the specified definition file loaded by default. For more information on definition files, click here.

Default web navigator file
When using the Web Navigator and no associated URL/Text file is found, using this entry you can specify a default URL/Text file to be displayed.

Alternative path for external audio tracks
When loading external audio tracks, Zoom Player can looks in this directory to find matches (useful when the source material is on a read-only media such as a CD while the external audio file is on the hard drive).

Alternative context menu file (clear = use default menu)
Zoom Player's right-click context menus can be user-customized. This value allows you to pick a menu specification file. For more information on this interface, open the "english.menu" file which resides in the Zoom Player language directory using any text editor.

Archive playback:
Zoom Player can automatically extract and play archive formats as they are loaded into the play list. This dialog allows you to point to various extraction tools Zoom Player will use to extract the various formats. A popular freeware tool that covers most archive formats is 7-ZIP.

When the "Allow EXT anywhere in name" checkbox is enabled, Zoom Player will look for the archive extension within the file name itself (as long as the extension isn't aligned to a letter or number). For example, "Myfiles.zip.mp3" would be detected as a zip file while "zippididua.mp3" would be treated as a standard MP3 file.
