Does this advice apply to my Forma, a device created five years later? Or can I just ignore that advice?
I'm going to go back to my original advice to you: Play with the device.

The config file option referred to in that post is still there and is pretty much the same. Following those instructions will work. But, what the post doesn't really mention is that it is tied to an option in the settings. Changing that option changes the value. And over time, the values presented in the UI have changed. For the Forma, selecting chapter refresh is probably the best. And is probably the right thing for most of the devices. I think my Touch is the only one I wouldn't use it for.

And no, I'm not saying where the option is in the settings. It isn't hard to find, and you might learn something else.
