Interesting.

There's actually a drop down option for BT 709 I just realized.
Should I assume to use BT 601 until I create my own profile for BT 709?

I don't really know for sure. 2.2 at 6500K is correct for both BT.601 and BT.709, I think? I'm not really the expert in this area, I'm always asking yesgrey for backup when such questions come up...

No, you shouldn't have to change anything depending on the video you playback. You should set up the display "properties" once and then forget about it. madVR should automatically perform all necessary conversions, depending on whether you play PAL, NTSC or HD content. madVR just wants to know what your display is calibrated to (or nearest to) so the conversions are done in the best possible way.
