Playlist defaults in the properties (.xml) file

[Terry Payman]

Many years ago I requested user-changeable defaults for the playlist transition duration/style and the scene duration, and I have a vague recollection of this feature being implemented (https://magicmusicvisuals.com/forums/vi ... =xml#p6472

Unfortunately I have lost the details of the specific .xml entries required, and a forum search found only the above link.

I would be very grateful for a reminder of the necessary .xml entries!

Hey Terry, long time no see.

The XML is in C:\Users\you\AppData\Roaming\MAGIC

Can't see anything obvious for duration defaults in there though. Need Eric if they're hidden options.

Hey Sadler, long time indeed. Good to hear from you

Thanks for your response. My problem wasn't finding the XML, but I do remember that the options were hidden.

It would be good to have a single place in which these and any other options (such as the invaluable "-mi" multiple instance switch) were listed, even if their use is deemed too esoteric for inclusion in the User's Guide.

Good question, I couldn't find them in any other post, but here they are:
defaultTransitionDuration (seconds)
defaultTransitionStyle (0, 1, or 2) (which corresponds to none, crossfade, additive dissolve)
defaultAutoAdvanceDuration (seconds)

Many thanks Mike/Eric
