Currently the filename format dialog is quite limited. You only have a few options, none of which include information about series, etc. For instance, the Plex format style would be quite useful (%(series)s - S%(season_number)sE%(episode_number)s - %(episode)s.%(ext)s). Additionally, it would be nice if we could save custom formats, and not have to overwrite our current custom format. Finally, some providers (like http://bilibili.com) don't work with youtube-dl unless the %(autonumber) filename format is used. Thus I would like:

  1. A larger range of default filename formats (including Plex)
  2. Saveable custom filename formats.
  3. Support for custom formats per video provider (e.g. one for youtube, one for bilibili).
