Tip when upgrading Kaleidescape Conductor

It looks like there were some small changes to Conductor in the release of kOS 8.6.0-21023. When I started it up today, it said the version on my PC was outdated and needed to be updated. No biggie, just click the link on the web ui and and install. There was however a minor issue. At first when the new version started up, it crunched some numbers and then finally indicated that it was copying music... All of my music. For some reason it had decided to re-encode all 9000+ tracks that it had previously processed. Not good.. but there was an easy solution. On the options page, I had set it to use the 'Use superior sound quality...' option. It seems upon upgrading, this option was reset to the middle option of 'Balance sound quality and file size'. I set it back to 'Superior' and restarted. Immediately it fixed the couple of older tracks that got re-encoded and then went on to just the new tracks that had not been downloaded yet.
