Sub-libraries or Collections that merge titles to a single frame

I have long been wanting to either be able to make sub-libaries within my current libraries, or to use the current Collections feature but force all titles in the collection to only show a single title.

 

EG:

Root

   |

Scifi

|    -----|

tites    Star wars

                |

               titles

 

In this example you would go into my Scifi category, see scifi movies, but just see a single tile for Star Wars. When you clicked on that it would take you to a sub folder that then shows all the Star Wars movies. (a whole lot like tv series currently do). Would be nice to make a sub folder in a sub folder as well so I could do fun stuff like make different mixes of these movies (like the Machete order) or do 2d and 3d folders.... but that might be stretching. I would be quite fine with an option in settings (client or server side) to group all collections together in a menu, or to leave them expanded if that would make it easier on the programming side (also with older versions compatibility).

 

Additonally it would be nice to have a root category to display all Collections. I am aware I could do this with playlists now, but that is not quite the same thing and should be handled differently.

disregard.   misread.

I also would like this feature.

I think you’re describing what this existing request is asking for.
