[BUG] Plex Photos - Issue with Videos and Albums

PMS Version#: 1.18.3.2129

Adding a photo to an album is possible in any of these views in the web UI…

…via the Add to Album dialogue box:

However, adding a video from the photo library to an album is only possible via the Library menu item…

… and then only if the folder it is contained in is added.

At present, it is not possible to add an individual video from the photo library into an album. An attempt to do so using the Add to Album menu item…

…throws up the Add to Playlist dialogue box instead…

This isn’t the expected result and appears to be a bug.

It should be possible to add related photos and videos to an album. The workaround, at present, is to add the folder containing the desired video to the album and then remove unwanted images from the album. This approach is clumsy at best.

This issue persists in PMS 1.18.8.2527

Some new information. If I select several images, photos and videos, for inclusion in an Album, an Albums UI is offered. If, however, images only consist of videos, a playlist UI rather as Albums UI is offered as described in the OP.
