C'mon man, think like a programmer. It would be easy to add a little "Quick Setup" to get it up and rolling, like a simple RRconfig that runs right after install that would just do basics. Music location, GPS proggy and port, video settings, skin. Ya?
Now for advanced setup and blah, rrconfig does the job very well. I haven't checked out the newest version I don't think, I'm still using one thats probably 6 or 7 months old. But I've just mostly been editing the ini file directly. I'm speaking for other users that would deem it a hard proggy to config.
Now I'm not saying the RR community/Guino aren't doing the job proper. I LOVE open source free apps, I support that to no end. I'll always have the idea of knowledge belongs to the people. But for the people that don't care and just want something to work, a simple config would be good, right after install.
But, I'm speaking of 2 experiences. One, probably over 2 years ago trying out RR for the first time. I had NO CLUE what to do with it, cause I didn't read anything about it on the forum, just installed and tried it. I didn't know where to start, what to do, etc. Now, second experience is after a CarPC makeover about a year ago. Decided to give RR a go again, cause my lil winamp frontend proggy just didn't cut it anymore. And rather than re-invent the wheel, RR looked like a good option. This time, I'd been around, seen a lot of the RR discussion, knew a good amount on what to do, how to config, etc. Then found RRconfig and almost shat myself. That proggy rocks as far as I'm concerned. BUT, there are still options in there (once again talking about the version from 7 or 8 months ago) that I don't understand what exactly they do. I'm sure browsing the forum and looking at the documentation that comes with RR, I could eventually figure it out, but it's not easy.
But then again, I know, it's open source, community supported, no financial backing, no corporate team of programmers to create a nice Help and How-to doc built in. I'm just saying.
And viola.
