Hi Alastair,

I am not sure if I fully understand what your problems are, but may 
the following help you:

That's strange. Saving settings should work no matter what the setting 
for the player is. I can even set this to a non-existent player.

Maybe there is another problem with your installation. I am running 
Debian, so, I am afraid I can't help much with this.

You don't have to.

First of all, of course, you have to make it save your preferences. 
Otherwise, changing the settings won't help :/

Then, I suggest the following settings in "Preferences"
  Browser tab: Deselect "Search subdirectories"
  Misc tab: Deselect "Replace illegal characters in filenames"
    Convert filename extension to: ... No change.
  Confirmation tab: whatever pleases you.

Hope that helps,
