MPlayer supports per-file configuration files, loaded automatically
based on filename; this sounds like what you're after. Read the
"CONFIGURATION FILES" section of the man page. (Note that this is not
playlist-specific.)
When specifying multiple input files on a single command line, you can
have any option apply to one file but not to the others by putting that
option after the name of that file but before the name of any other
file; for instance,
mplayer file1.avi file2.avi -fs file3.avi
will play file2.avi fullscreen but the other two files windowed. Only
options which appear before the first filename will be applied to all of
the files, and even those can be overridden by later options.
As I understand things, the priority for various options is:
built-in default
overridden by system-wide config file
overridden by user-specific config file
overridden by file-specific config file
overridden by command-line options which come before any filename
overridden by command-line options which come after the name of the
specific file being played
