When creating a collection they are shown in the movie library, would be nice to only show these under the collections tab, keeps the library clean.

Just go to library settings and switch Collections to “Hide items wich are in collections”.

Actually, if you only want to see collections on the Collections tab, you need to set it to “Disabled”.
