Possibly the FAQ needs updating regarding How do I edit the 'config.ini' file on the player? now 2.0b13 has arrived?

In the FAQ it explains you should add a New DWORD value named allow_edit_config with a value of 1 to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Software
SONICblue
emplode
2.0
Settings

With 2.0b13 you also now have to create the key Settings below 2.0 before you create the key allow_edit_config beneath it. This is not to be confused with the new key at a higher level named Settings - creating the sub-key allow_edit_config there doesn't work.

If you mean that the last paragraph you wrote should be added, it already pretty much explicitly states that. If not, huh?

Yeah, I don't see how...

"Note that this may require that you actually create the 2.0/Settings key. The key does not normally exist. Do not confuse this with the emplode/Settings key."

...could be any more clear?

Oh and to be absolutely clear, this behavior has not changed from 2.0b11.

Uhhh, yeah. It appears my inability to read is causing spurious postings. Normal services will resume later. Do not adjust your set.
