Against my better judgement, allowing for a freeform field to contain default parameters for each media type may be useful.

Pros:

• Allows for more flexibility for default parameters without requiring further code updates
• Removes possibly confusing amounts of settings from the menu
• Makes explicit customization between media types easier to discover

Cons:

• Higher learning curve for new users unless a guide or something similar is added
• Invalidates nearly all existing configuration files
• Requires validation before saving as invalid params may be added
