# Preferences

The preferences screen has two tabs.

## Appearance

| Preference         | Default   | What it does                                    |
| ------------------ | --------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
| Skin               | `default` | Player skin. `default` or `modern`.             |
| Background colour  | `#353535` | Player background. Chosen with a colour picker. |
| Background opacity | `100`     | How opaque the background is.                   |
| Font colour        | `#ffffff` | Text colour in the player.                      |

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Unknown:** the scale of *Background opacity*. It is stored as text and the admin gives no hint — `0`–`100` is the obvious reading, but it has not been confirmed against the CSS. See [Open questions](/jplayer-plugin/reference/open-questions.md).
{% endhint %}

## Behaviour

| Preference             | Default | What it does                                                    |
| ---------------------- | ------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Social meta            | On      | Shows the sharing links and the iframe embed box on the player. |
| Scrollbar              | Off     | Gives long playlists a custom scrollbar instead of growing.     |
| Songs before scrolling | `6`     | How many songs are shown before the scrollbar kicks in.         |

*Songs before scrolling* only has an effect when *Scrollbar* is on.
