Integration options
Here you can set XMPlay to be the default player for the file formats it supports, so that whenever you open a file from within File Explorer, it is opened by XMPlay. Filetype associations can be removed by deselecting them.
Since Windows 10, some filetype associations can only be done via the "Default apps" settings. XMPlay will detect when that's the case and direct you to those settings. XMPlay can also be set as the default music player there.
Icon
This is the icon that is shown for filetypes associated with XMPlay.
Context menu options
As well as the "Open with XMPlay" option, these additional options may be included in the shell context menu of files (and folders) associated with XMPlay.
Add to XMPlay-list
This adds an "Add to XMPlay-list" option to the context menu, which results in the files just being added to the playlist, without playing them or first clearing the list.
Add to XMPlay-library
This adds an "Add to XMPlay-library" option to the context menu, which adds the files to the library instead of the playlist.
Folders
This enables the context menu options for folders.
Default action
This determines what should be done with files opened via the default "Open" context menu option, or the clipboard or command-line, or drag'n'dropping outside of the playlist/library. They can either replace the current playlist contents or add to them, optionally adding to the queue too.
Play listed tracks
This determines whether XMPlay should immediately play tracks that are added to the list via external means (not the "Add files to list" button), optionally bookmarking the current playback first.
Include sub-folders
If this is enabled when opening a folder via external means (not the "Open files" or "Add files to list" buttons), XMPlay will also search its sub-folders for playable files.
Monitor clipboard for URLs
XMPlay can monitor the clipboard for URLs of playable files, which it will automatically play or add to the playlist. When you see a playable file on a webpage, simply right-click and "Copy Shortcut" to have XMPlay stream it.
Auto-sort by filename
When enabled, multiple new tracks are sorted by filename (full path). Otherwise, they are left in the order that XMPlay received them.
Bring to foreground
When enabled, XMPlay will be brought to the foreground when files are opened from File Explorer.
Desktop shortcut
This places a shortcut to XMPlay on the desktop.
