Ending a sentence with "too" like this doesn't really work very well -
and I'm at least 90% certain that it's actually incorrect. Things which
might work include "You can also put the" etc., "Alternatively, you can
put" etc., and at least one thing I'm not managing to phrase at the
moment involving the word "instead".

In contexts like this, the word "however" needs two commas - one on each
side.

It might also be better to combine the two sentences - something like
"You can also put the configuration file in the same directory as the
file to be played, as long as you give the \-use-filedir-conf option.
(either on the command line or in your config file)".
