Default Media File Location And power saving

Is there anyway we can have the Media folder path to save files in the preference tab? Instead of in the file menu of every project.

I want my default for new projects to be a folder under the project called media and not have to set it up every time in reaper before saving the project.

Also I am missing a feature in Cubase that would set your power saver mode to high power when starting Cubase. Can this be implemented in Reaper in the preferences tab?

I like to keep my PC saving energy / Environment when not using it to make music.

Developers can this be implemented?

You set that up once and then save as default project... That should do what you want. Not?

That will work but it would be easier to just have it in the preferences as the default. What about the high power settings?

Power settings are managed by windows, and I don't think that Reaper has any way to manage that.

However, you could make a simple bat-file that turns on high power setting, starts Reaper, and then resets the power setting when Reaper is closed.

Something like this: http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=115632
Or maybe this: http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=108137

EDIT: Looks like might be what you are looking for http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=72071

Thanks so much for the link. That will do it. Can we do the Media default under the preferences tab instead of me loading a default project file?
