Ability to skip One folder levels

I use Serviio to stream video only so I've disabled the Audio and Image categories in the presentation tab.
But when accessing it from my TV I still have to explicitly select Video, even though it's the only choice. I think this is unnecessary and could be changed to make the user experience better.
By adding an option to the presentation page "Skip single folder levels" or something like this (not sure if there is a term about it), you can save time and make it more enjoyable :)

Not sure if this should be just for the root or all. I have only one series now, and when I go to Series, I see the single folder. Could go either way, and besides, this will be rare to only have one movie or series.

But for the root I think it will be useful addition.

Re: Ability to skip One folder levels

Have you tried setting video to display content only?

Re: Ability to skip One folder levels

Another quick question - is there a way to reorder the categories on the presentation list?

Re: Ability to skip One folder levels

I've added a lot of folders also and control the visibility with the access control option. Therefore I'd be very interested in a sorting button as well.
