Describe what you are trying to accomplish and why in non technical terms
I would love to have the ability to preset the default settings that apply to the UI as I am having to regularly change these manually the first time I change browsers, use a different access URL, set up access for others etc.
Describe the solution you'd like
A ui: section in the config file within which default settings can be defined eg:
ui:
autoliveview: true
playalertvideos: false
firstweekday: monday
...
Describe alternatives you've considered
Having user-adjusted settings be remembered server-side (rather than client-side) could be an option but I am assuming this might add complexity (is there currently anything else pinned to a user account other than the password?) and perhaps have downsides e.g. a user may wish to have different settings for different browsers/devices and not have these settings follow them around.
Additional context
For what it's worth, the settings I always have to adjust are Play Alert Videos (disabling it), Show Camera Names (enabling it) and First Weekday (setting it to Monday) and so it is these in particular I personally would be wanting to set. Others may of course wish to see additional (maybe even the full range) of settings be settable in the config.
Thank you in advance if you're willing to consider it (or even just hearing me out if not!).
