Double checking, nested folders

[lucasbuck 2]

Just making sure. I have a folder named movies with sub folders 'action' different seerie4s', etc. Emby just dumps everything in 'movies'. I've read a lot and assume there's no way to do subfolders at this time. I don't want everything on the home screen.

Better to ask, if it's possible, whats the proper way to do the subfolder setup. Thanks for any help

Could you elaborate on that one, what do you don't want on Home screen?

Folder view should give you want you want as yes Movies/TV library will be flattened no matter what your folder structure is.  But My Media will only show said library but sounds like what you want is not available and have to wait for whenever Smart View/Playlists gets added but as Grim said we would need a specific example to confirm exactly what you want.

For example I would like things such as 'TV', 'Movies', etc. on the home screen. When each are clicked on it shows folders inside lets say 'Movies' In the movie folder there's subfolders like Drama, Comedy, etc. After clicking on 'Movies' it doesn't show the subfolders, it's a big list of all the movies within my subfolders. No breakdown into catqgory.

Have you tried clicking tabs along the top of the screen in your library...? "Genres", *Folders"...? Have you set your libraries landing page (Default screen) in App Settings>Home Screen tab to the preferred tab?

App settings/Home Screen/Movies/default screen/   set to folders
