Can video settings such as subtitles on or off and display mode such as 4:3 or 16:9 be set per folder?

For example, I have one folder which I would like all 30 movies to be played in 16:9 with Japanese audio and English subtitles and another folder with 20 movies I would like to be played in 4:3 with English audio.

Is it possible?
As far as i know you can't but i may well be wrong
Probably with multiple profiles and the new easy switch between them:

Create two or more profiles and save the defaults via the Video OSD in each of them.
that would be a great feature if you could set for each folder.

I have done what sho said with the awhile ago for my kids since most of there stuff is 4:3 and my son who is three does not like it when there is any black bars on the screen. He gets a little OCD about it so I set there default to stretch 16:9 so there isnt any black cropping.

Had not considered that option
