@P-I H - hey, thanks for the feedback. Sounding mostly good - will take a look at your log for the DTS-MA issue. Cheers for that!
@mad-max - funny, just responded in your thread before reading your post here. I've made my opinion known that I favour allowing access to these settings, it's finding a way to do so without making things more difficult/confusing. I agree that as.xml is not user-friendly, no does it lend itself to "live" switching which audio options benefit from. As you saw in your thread, many devs are against adding options to the GUI, for understandable reasons. I'm not enitrely in that camp, but they have a good argument. How to find a balance? As I replied in your thread, I think addons for opening up advanced settings are the way to go.
EDIT: I also think that method will find the support of some very senior devs - to quote one of the veterans when I asked how best to add settings for AE, "add-on the shit out of it"
