How to I get videos out of my Photos collection?

I have my videos and photos in a master folder. The photos are inside folders in groups.

When I create a “Photos” Library it includes the videos as well. However, When I make “Other Videos” Library is does NOT include the photos. How can I get the videos out of my photos library. I was hoping that meta data could help me with this. Like only load .jpg files into my photos library. Or exclude .mp4 files from my photos library.

Seems to be a bug with the Photo’s library feature not working as it would be expected to.

I know I can move the photos to a folder by themself but Plex should be able to handle these file types individually.

Any suggestions?

Pretty sure this is deliberate so people can keep things like family videos and pictures together from the same events

Unless you want to separate things the only thing that might work is using a plex ignore file
