BSplayer folder as default.
One more reason to do that ? I am testing Windows Vista RC1. One of the many new features is account control. You can't install a program that writes informations in your own docs and setts folder if you don't disable account control. I think most of the regular users won't do that.
:shock: really?
:lol: this option is really needed now..

Any suggestions to make it work as good as possible with the less amount of compatibility problems?

Maybe the settings' path can be saved (by BSplayer) to the windows registry, this way it will be always reachable even if the settings are saved in non common folders. I don't know if some accounts will not have access to the registry too as for the directories (never used restricted accounts :roll: )

If there is no problem with registry writing rights, then I think that would be the best option :)
