Feature requests for "Other videos"

In my family we use “Other videos” a lot, because we have a lot of family videos, kids shows and kids movies, that I dont want in my Movie or Shows libraries.
I have the following 3 requests to improve the setup and experience of “Other videos” even more.

  1. Request the option to go directly into “All items” when entering “Other videos”.

  2. I use “Folder”-mode as all videos are organized in a folder-structure. In each folder I have a folder.jpg which is loaded as folder-image on my MediaCenter (running MediaPortal).
    I request the feature for plex to use this local folder.jpg as folder-image instead of the gray-black-folder image now.
    This would make the Other Videos section (using Folder) look extremely cool.
    Right now my kids cannot use Other Videos them selves because them cannot find what they want from reading the text. They need pictures :slight_smile:

  3. I have a lot of cartton movies for the kids, and for each kids movie I have a image-file with same filename. This is loaded on my Media Center .
    I also believe that Plex loaded such a local image for a file, but it seems in the new mobile app version, it doesn’t do that. Now it only the a little box with the filename, which like the folder overview, is not very good-looking. And not useable to the kids. They need pictures.
    However when I click on a videofile, it goes to a page showing a bit of information on the file, and here it does load my local image for that file.
    So I request to bring back showing a local picture for the file.

2021 clean-up:

  1. obsolete
  2. duplicate → [Request] Posters for Folder-View
  3. implemented (depends on following naming schema) → Local Media Assets - Movies | Plex Support
