(Doesn't work with Amiga browsers, sorry)

NOTE:
There is a known issue with audio buffer calculation.
The automatic calculation sets the buffer to 1024,
which is known to be too low and can lead to audible
"thuds" in numerous games while music/audio plays.
To fix that, manually add below setting to scummvm.ini
audio_buffer_size=2048

AmigaOS4 specific changes/additions:

2.7.0
- Add: Set .ini default/creation for first-time users
  (audio buffer, aspect ratio, fullscreen, gui size, theme)
- Fix: Missing drawer icon used by installer
