I assume you mean that there's a hook in the code to adjust this if it ever gets integrated with the UI. You can't really set this stuff right now without re-compiling, can you?

That's correct. I was sort of thinking of making a file in /proc where you could set the parameters. That would be cool in that I would learn how to do it, but it would appear to have limited utility. You still need some program or interface to set the values at run time, which doesn't exist. Actually, didn't someone try an experiment with replacing the renaming the player executable, and calling something else "player"? I guess you could just have a shell script which writes appropriate values into /proc, and then execs the player. Hmmm.
