Provxml file?

[hollywood]

Do changes (registry) made to the provxml files override the settings (registry) in the default.hv? I am wondering if it is easier to just make changes to the provxml files insead of going into the default.hv file and making the changes there. Are there any downsides to editing the rom this way? Thanks again

One downside is that some setting implimented with provxml files require a reset before they take effect. Anything that would need a reset if you chenged it using a Reg Editor will be like this. Good example is the Tilt Keyboard fix.

Personally I prefer to edit the rgu files.

My experience tells me that changes happen in the order:

rgu files in SYS Folders

Then

rgu files in OEM Folders

Are combined to build your initial registry.

Finally provxml file changes are applied...

Adding Registry Keys/Settings to the rgu file in OEMMisc is usually a good place. If the Key doesn't exist simply add it to that file.

Yes, they do. No downsides really but I tend to use the hive unless there's an existing provxml that overrides a default setting (such as rom version).
