Folders with one video file

Would it be possilbe to remove extra clicks by exposing folders with one video file in it as the video files itself? I have all of my personal videos in their own directory with the cover.jpg in the directory. So right now, the folders have generic folder images and then I have to enter it, then click on the single file contained within it to play it. Thanks!

Re: Folders with one video file

Seems like a trivial change. It could be configured by a simple check box on the console and left off by default. Is the reluctance political, technical or resource? Thanks, it would just help change my media players from a simple folder browser into a power media platform.

Re: Folders with one video file

for playing a BMDV movie you have to
1) select "Name of Movie"
2) select "BDMV"
3) select "STREAM"
4) select 000XX.m2ts

Would be great it there would be an option to hide all these folders and only Display "Name of the Movie". Same should be done for DVD movies.

Will this perhaps happen as a "Pro" Feature?

Serviio could detect a BD or DVD folder structure and only display .vob or .m2ts files, this is your request ?
