Would be great if while looking at the list of files on the server various info would be displayed when hovering the pointer over one.
Optimal way would be to have control over WHAT is displayed. Since everyone is different, having the options of choosing (check boxes) what will be shown would be great. Things like: File name, file location, Tags, Collections (\<-- these 2 (tags, collections) should be separate options, file size, etc…
This would make checking things (I put MOST of my movies/tv series into collections) very quick and easy.

> I would like to be able to hover over the media and have it display the plot summary so I can quickly read the plot rather than having to click on each item to see the info. An example of this requested behavior is seen on the Netflix site when hovering over the title/cover art the plot summary is displayed. I prefer the behavior demonstrated by the streaming subscription. Thank you for the consideration.
