For the films it is ok
only one folder “FILMS” and it work fine using as subfolders you need

for the SerieTV is STUPID and not professionnal
we must create around 20 first folders SerieTV + “Category”
SerieTV Action
SerieTV Animation
SerieTV Comedy
and so on

I THINK OP is complaining that if you want to separate your TV shows by genre, then you are unable to use genre subfolders in the TV library, and you must make a separate library for each genre?

(I am sure it is unintentional, but this post reminds me of the good old Timecube.)
