persisting settings for individual files

I often apply different crop settings to each video file, select and turn subtitles on/off, select audio streams and apply various video filters immediately after opening a file.

It would be incredible if these, or any settings applied to a file, could be saved in the file's metadata, or an external settings file. If this is possible, it would also be useful if this data could be applied to a playlist, directory or group of files (like an album or television show).

Experience tends to show that this would confuse users and cause a lot of support here.

Experience tends to show that this would confuse users and cause a lot of support here. \ I forgot to mention that it should be optional. Something like file>save settings for this file. I can imagine all the confusion that would result from this happening automatically.

If this is not a plausible addition, I hope it would at least be possible add a feature for creating profiles that save all of the settings applied during a session. Something easily accessible such as: \ ''tools>profiles> profile 1 profile 2 create new''
