Folder appears as video file

Whenever there’s a folder with just a single video file inside it, it appears as a video file in the list instead of as a folder. Is there a way, other than adding another file to the folder, to make this folder appear correctly?

I believe this is intended behaviour as a result of many requests!   The only way to stop this is to do what you have already mentioned - add another file to the folder.

What’s the reasoning behind this “feature”? If one wants to see the video file in a series as a video file, why not just take it out of its own folder?

I like this behaviour because you don’t have to waste time clicking into the folder to see the metadata on the single file.

 

I just wish the folders would list the number of video files in them, like DVRs, so you don’t have to go into them to see how many episodes you have.
