    How to import/change PopupInclude settings remotely?

    Hey, greetings all for the first time!

    Just wanted to inquire about something related to the popup settings saved in HKCU\Illustrate\dBpoweramp.

    I've noticed that when you use the configuration program to state which tags should or shouldn't be displayed in the Info Popup window, it saves the (PopupInclude) settings into the above key in a pretty bizarre manner. No spaces seperating the tag names. If I export this setting into a reg file and examine in notepad or a notepad alternative (such as metapad), the tags will appear to either be seperated by carriage returns or will be squelched together like how it's seen in RegEdit (no spaces), depending on what notepad-like program you're using.

    Now the problem....... if I try to import this key into the registry later on (to change the tags remotely), Windows won't actually load the PopupInclude part of the reg file. What does dMC do to the key in such a way that only it can load the new tags into registry? I hope it's still possible to do it remotely somehow.

    Thanks.

    There is a \r between the values, the exporting is not exporting these values.

      So it should be ""Type\rSize\rLength\rChannels\rSample Rate\rSample Size\rBit Rate\rProtected"?

      If I add the "\r" bits into a reg file, it should import correctly then, right?

        No because \r is character code '13' which text editors will not allow you to enter. \r is just the representation in c++

          So there's basically no-way of changing the tags without using the config program? :(

          I do wonder why stuff like "\r" was used in the first place. Could've just gone with seperators like ; or , I reckon!

            It is not designed for external modification, you can do it with a program which can write \r between the values.

              I see. Do you happen to know of any programs which can do just that (aside from dMC of course)?
