 # Viewing instance settings
 If the instance isn't outdated and has `InstanceInfo` setting enabled, you can navigate to `<instance>/_/info` to view useful instance settings. ([sc.maid.zone/_/info](https://sc.maid.zone/_/info) for example)
 
-- ProxyImages: This instance proxies images
-- ProxyStreams: This instance proxies songs
-- FullyPreloadTrack: Fully loads the track instead of buffering a small part of it
-- Restream: This instance retrieves the HLS stream on the backend and restreams the file to you (doesn't require running JS)
+An easier way is to navigate to `<instance>/_/preferences`.
+
+If some features are disabled by the instance, they won't show up there.
+
+Available features:
+- Proxy images: Retrieve images through the instance, instead of going to soundcloud's servers for them
+- Player: In what way should the track be streamed. Can be Restream (does not require JS, better compatibility, can be a bit buggy client-side) or HLS (requires JS, more stable, less good compatibility (you'll be ok unless you are using a very outdated browser))
+- Player-specific settings: They will only show up if you have selected HLS player currently.
+- - Proxy streams: Retrieve song pieces through the instance, instead of going to soundcloud's servers for them
+- - Fully preload track: Fully loads the track when you load the page instead of buffering a small part of it
