Just something that crossed my mind the other day.
Any ideas on integrating specific settings for media contained in a directory? Like .htaccess overrides default-settings for a directory in Apache. This would allow for different video-settings for Recorded TV-Shows (Zooming, Gamma, Volume, etc) then for Movies, DVDs or Internet-Streams.
I for myself find myself having to do the same things using the Overlay-Menu each time I either want to watch something my PVR recorded (Gamma, Zoom) or watch an Internet-Stream (Volume). However, I do not want to change my default-settings as they are perfect for my Movies and DVDs. Using something to change default-settings on a directory-basis would allow me to setup everything once and just enjoy my XBMC-Experience without having to change something everytime I want to watch an Episode of Dr. Who (just to give an example).
Would be nice to hear your thoughts on this.
