Preferences:
On Touch Init Stream for Bass: When files are added to the StreamList they will be automatically preloaded for Bass. It will take a little more time to add files, because Bass will read some extra information from the file. Loading speed also depends on the BASS_MP3_SETPOS flag. You get average playtime values, and the ability to Play streams without delays.
Use BASS_MP3_SETPOS flag: Enable pin-point accurate seeking on the MPEG stream. This also increases the time taken to create the stream, due to the entire file being pre-scanned for the seek points.
On Touch Count MPEG Frames: Files added to the StreamList will undergo frame counting so you get correct playtime values. If Save ID3v2 SEFC is checked the value will be stored, and used next time you open the stream. In general you'll get nearly instantenous loading of MPEG files. Note that MPEG frame count is also needed for editing.
Don't ask "Keep Stream in Playlist?" when closing: When closing Streams do not ask to keep them in the Playlist, but keep them always.
Disable Splash Screen: Do not show logo and registration information on startup.
Log Everything: Log debug info too.
Save Log Automatically: Events will be Loged to file. It's advised to check this option so you can check the Log in case there was some failure, for example when the application crashes you can view the last event reported to the Log.

Display
Adjusting D3D resolution limits the maximal resolution for samples (the triangle count). If you're having problems with the sample display (there is no sample) try lowering this value and/or update your graphics card drivers.
Lowering D3D resolution also speeds up rendering. If sound playback is choppy rendering takes up too much CPU time, lower this and/or the driver's 3D Full Screen Antialiasing. However turning FSAA on will result better looking sample display, so experiment with it! :)
Set the Sample colors as you like.
Throttle: Preserves CPU time for other tasks. Try to keep framerate at 30 fps. For smoother graphics turn it off.
Auto ReInit: Automatically Re-Initialize D3D panel on resize (slow resizeing but gives always precise 1:1 resolution).
Animate: Turn on/off 3D animation.
FFT: Draw FFT below sample when playing.
VIS: Turning off and running Vis Plugins, the Stream will be sampled for Sample display, and turning off visualisation will swap back to Sample display. Checking this option means closing the Vis Plugin will close the stream window entirely. Vis Plugins and Sample display will be handled separately.
Single mode: When you click a stream in the StreamList the action you specified with StreamList's dropdown-listbox will execute immediately.
When you select another stream the previous will be closed, so in Single mode there's always one Stream opened, unless you Load another separately.
StreamList Position: Select as you prefer, above or below.

Encoders
Locate...: Specifiy Lame.exe's path and file name. Without Lame.exe you won't be able to encode MPEG streams, as to use the EncodeList the CD Grabbing to MP3 or the MP3 Recording.
Set Lame process's Priority to lower values for good responsiveness, or set it to higher values for faster encoding. Use with care, values above Normal may cause system instabilities or a non-responsive system.
Editing Streams Preview Length: When using the Preview function for Paste or Cut, this long slice will be played. This means if Preview length is 6 seconds then in the preview you'll here the cut point in the 3rd second.
Play Selection repeat: Repeat (loop) selection the specified times, when Playing Selection with the yellow play button.
Rewind: When playing selection, after reaching selection end, set playing position to the beginning. Else you can continue playing with the Pause button.
Use Error Correction when streaming MPEG: Turning off MPEG Error Correction will gain some speed and you still get basic correction when sync is lost.
Repeat Frames: When bad frame is detected the prevoius valid one will be duplicated to keep the streams length.

Audio
Device: Enumarate available sound devices for output. If you change these parameters audio playback will be reset and all playing streams will stop.
32bit: Convert 8/16-bit sample data to 32-bit floating-point before passing it to DSP functions, and then convert it back after all the DSP functions are done. This means that there is no degradation of quality as sample data passes through a chain of DSP.
Sampling rate: Shows device's sampling capabilites. Select desired output frequency (higher values recommended). This does not affect stream playback sampling rate.
Min. Pre-Buf.: Shows recommended minimal pre-buffering value in ms. Select desired pre-buffer value (values between 500-2000 are recommended). This affects DSP responsiveness. If you apply a DSP to a stream channel the sound data already in buffer will be played before the DSP will affect it.
Stream from Memory: Acquire streams directly to non-paged RAM. There is no need to acces the drives for these streams (IC icon).
Info: Information about the selected Sound device, keep Latency as low as you can.

Misc
External Picture Viewer: Select picture viewer for APIC images in ID3v2 Tags.
Command Line Options: Lets you set extra arguments when starting the specified external picture viewer.
External Tracker: Specify a Music module Tracker program to use for Loading Music module files.
Filetype Associations: First checkmark specifies whether to add "Repair with MP3SE" to the mp3 file type's context menu in Explorer.
Select file types to be associated with MP3 Stream Editor. You can edit the Description whith double clicking on it, Add filetypes, Remove, etc.
Allow Multiple Instances: Allow running more than one MP3 Stream Editor application at a time (not recommended).
Process Priority: Set MP3 Stream Editor main process's priority class. Values below Normal may cause pauses or delays.
Values above Normal can make the system unstable or non-responsive. Use with care.
In general use lower values for processing, higher values for sound playback.

Saving
Save ID3v2 SEFC: Store frame count in ID3v2 Tag.
Save ID3v2 SESC: Save the Sample cache in a special frame inside the ID3v2 Tag, so no need to decode and sample the stream anymore, but this will also increase file size by +0.4-0.5% (for example a 700MB MP3 CD compillation will grow to about 705MB). More information about SEFC and SESC here.
Save ID3v2 TLEN: Store the Playtime value. Very useful as many MP3 related pograms use this information.
Save ID3v2 PCNT (Playcount): Count how many times the stream has been started playing by the user.
Automatically convert .CUE files into Subsong system: When .CUE file is found for the Stream convert the seek points and titles into the Stream's ID3v2 SESP, SESA and SEST frame automatically.
Temp path: Select folder for storing temporary files. If not set default temp folder is used (\Windows\Temp\).
Favorite Folders: These folders will be searched for streams and Music Modules when using the Heart icon for searching computer for MPEG and MOD files.
Collect: If checked then every time you open a file, it's path will be added to the list automatically.
Add: Manually add a folder to the list. Only real folders can be added like C:\MP3. You can not add virtual folders like My Computer!
Remove: Remove selected folder from the list.
Clear: Clear the list completly.
OK will save the setings or Apply it without saving.
Note: If you mess up something, delete the MP3SE.ini file from the installation folder. This will erase all your settings of course and default values will be used next time you start the application.
