Stable
Beta
Development

Those are update tracks. Stable gives you stable releases only, and Development gives every development build (which is a lot! many per day) Beta just give you development builds once a month, aligned with the progress reports. There's nothing special about them, they are literally just dev builds. The beta update track is just for those that don't want to update for every single new development build.

To reiterate, there is no such thing as Beta builds, there is only the Beta update track.

Moving between builds is seamless because stable and dev builds use the same configuration files and settings. If you change a setting in a stable build, that setting will be changed in dev builds, and vice versa. There is no overriding!

If you want your stable builds to be totally isolated for whatever reason, you can just put portable.txt into your stable build. But we're not going to do that for everyone, as that's not how we want users to use Dolphin.
