Saving crop and aspect ratio settings for each video!
Posted: 17 Mar 2010 23:46
Hello, I have a feature request that I really would like to see implemented, and it shouldn't be too hard to make it! I'm sorry if this has been already suggested.
Basically I would like that when I watch a video, and use the crop and/or aspect ratio keyboard shortcuts, it save those settings in text file.
Then, when I replay this video later, it search in that file if settings are saved, then if found, it apply the saved settings, so I don't have to press the keyboard shortcuts to modify those ratios each time I watch this video! For faster processing, it is probably better to load the file in memory only once, when VLC is started
An small example is better than few lines of texts, since I'm not english Here is how the text file could looks like:
Also, this feature could be developped to save more settings, such as audio volume for example!
Please, tell me what you guys think about it! Thanks

Here is how the text file could looks like:Code: Select all
//format is: filename = aspect ; crop
//the settings should be saved as a division representation
//so users can easily modify directly in the config file (as 16/9 is easier to remember than 1.77777)
Video1.avi=16/9;16/10
//but floats should also be allowed of course.
Video2.flv=1.25;1.33333333333333
Please, tell me what you guys think about it! Thanks
