Possible to make list view more usable?

[windowsrefund]

Greetings,

I've got a library defined which represents content I am currently studying. For example purposes, I'll describe the filesystem layout in a pseudo fashion:

Code:

/library
  /learn
    /subjectA
      /course1
        /section1
          /file1
          /file2
          /file3
        /section2
        /section3
      /course2
      /course3
    /subjectB
    /subjectC

As a user, I'd want to essentially browse this content like I would if I were navigating a filesystem. That said, I believe I chose Mixed Movies and Shows for Content Type when I added my Learn library (which obviously points to /library/learn on the filesystem). I say "I believe" because it is now listed as "Other" with no way I am aware of to confirm the decision made at the time of creation. Either way, it's fine and mostly behaves as I'd like. However, I'd love to improve the end user experience in the following ways and would appreciate any help.

1. Changing the Image Type is cumbersome as it is buried under the 3-dot thing. Why is it buried?

2. Changing the Image Type from the default of Primary to List becomes more and more burdensome the deeper we travel into the hierarchy. In other words, a recursive option would REALLY be helpful so we don't have to do the thing over and over the deeper we go.

3. I greatly appreciate the Play All feature at the Section level (see above layout). That said, I'd also like to have a Play icon made available on the right side of the file listing. As of now, the right side contains information and functionality related to length, 'mark played, add to favorites, as well as the 3-dot menu containing the very play` functionality I'm discussing.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Give the music video library a try. It is a glorified folder view.

Nice, that's certainly a better fit as it takes care of the "list by default" problem. That just leaves #3 as I mentioned above and I'll even add a new item to the wish list. I'd really like to just disable all images all together.

Thanks for the tip.
