Summary0000057: Unable to change default directory for new films in windows
Description

I 've just noticed a new bug in windows versions (both: 64 and 32 bits: I've tried) I know you are actively working on the next version so I hope it will help to make it even better on every platform.

When you want to edit preferences and change default directory for DCP: the software always forget it. It always remains "My DOcuments".

I tried on ubuntu and the preference settings works perfectly on Linux. It fails only on windows.

An Idea BOUT SOUNDS for Still Picture DCPs:

Finally, I thought to a last thing when I was testing the software to make a still picture DCP with sound.
Adding sound to this kind of DCP is a great idea and the fact that you can add any sound in any samplerate is really useful but in most common cases, the simpliest way for users to add a sound for still picture DCP should be using a simple STEREO wav file.
So, it could be very useful to have an option to add a simple stereo wav file, just beside the existing "L,R,C,LFE,SRL,SRR" possible entries.
I imagine this simple stereo sound would be managed by DVD O MATIC as "L" and "R" entries.
Don't you think so? It could be an idea for the next release.

Hi Thierry, thanks for looking into this, it should already be fixed in the next version. I've opened a new feature request for the stereo WAV file, that's a good idea.

Regards
