·Activate Remote Requests  
Only visible if the optional Remote Request Submission System is installed (See Remote Request System (Kiosk) )  
·Toggle Host's Full-Screen Lyrics Display  
This activates the Full-Screen Lyrics Display/SOLO Mode. (See Activating and Using Full-Screen (Solo) Mode )  
·Enable Quick-Launch  
When activated, double clicking a listing within the selected Song Request Queue or History will automatically launch the performance. When deactivated, double-clicking a selection will open the "Edit" dialog.  
·Require Double-Click to activate STOP button  
When activated you must "double-click" the Karaoke Main STOP button to prematurely terminate an ongoing performance. This helps to avoid inadvertantly or accidentally terminating a performance .  
·Add All Song Requests to Performer's History at time of Request.  
When activated, all Song Requests made by a Performer will automatically be added to their History as though they had actually performed the selection. When NOT activated, selections are only added to the Performer's History AFTER actually performing the selection.  
·Auto-Deactivate Performer w/No Further Requests in Queue  
When activated, Performer(s) that no longer have Song Requests in their Song Request Queue after completing a performance will automatically be DEACTIVATED within the Performer Rotation.  
·Auto-Delete Performer(s) w/No Further Requests in Queue  
When activated, Performer(s) that no longer have Song Requests in their Song Request Queue after completing a performance will automatically be DELETED from the Performer Rotation.  
·Activate Karaoke Playback Silence Detection  
When activated, audio silence at the beginning and end of Karaoke Audio+G selections is detected and optionally removed. (See Using the Karaoke Playback Silence Detection Feature )  
·Activate Karaoke Volume Normalization  
When activated, the volume level of Karaoke Audio+G selections is automatically evaluated and normalized at the start of the performance. (Audio+G selections only)  
·Auto-Fadeout Karaoke audio when utilizing the "STOP" button to end an ongoing Karaoke performance.  
When activated, the Karaoke Audio will "fade away" when utilizing the "STOP" button (V) (Main Screen) to prematurely halt an ongoing Karaoke performance. This is useful for eloquently ending a long outro (non-vocal, instrumental conclusion of a song).  
·Disable Performer Deletion Confirmations  
When activated, you are no longer prompted to confirm the deletion of a Performer.  
·Disable History Deletion Confirmations  
When activated, you are no longer prompted to confirm deletions from the Performer History.  
·Activate Video Performance Monitor  
When activated, the Video Performance of the computer is constantly monitored. If the Video speed capabilities of the computer are found insufficient to "keep up", a warning dialog will appear. This is useful in determining the cause of "lagging lyrics" etc.  
·Activate Touchpad SlowScroll Mode (Touchpad Virtual Scroll Compatibility Mode)  
When activated, the Mouse Scroll function is throttled/controlled to address stability issues inherent with the use of Virtual Scroll Zones/Regions found on Laptop Touchpads. (Recommended if utilizing a Touchpad rather than an actual Mouse.)  
·Disable Collapsed Duplicate Listings in SongList View/Search (NOT RECOMMENDED)  
When activated, the Collapsed Search Results feature is disabled, thus ALL duplicates will be displayed in the results set. This may impose a significant impact on Search Performance, as well as produce a much larger results set to search through, therefore activating this option is NOT recommended.  
·Disable IntelliFonts (Do NOT Resize Fonts while Resizing Windows)  
When activated, CompuHost will NOT automatically resize Onscreen Fonts.
