The Preferences tab of the Mbox v4 application places all preference settings into a table with individual preferences
organized, first by category and then by importance or alphabetically within each category.
Note: The Preferences does not include the full configuration of outputs or mixes as these items are set on the other
three tabs of the application. However, basic information about these settings is reported in the table.
Preferences can be on/off checkboxes, pop-up lists, text fields for text or numeric entry, or more advanced edit tools for
multi-item preferences (e.g. video inputs). All preferences have a name which may include a hint to show the required
formatting or units for their text or numerical values.
A search field at the top of the table allows preferences to be found more rapidly.
