Listing all videos

Is there a custom view or "search folder" possibility so that one folder or one search string can display all videos in list view so I can see when it was uploaded, etc.

Thanks.

    I add a specific keyword to all videos and use that keyword in a smart gallery. That's the only way
    I know of to find videos.

    Yes, I am kicking myself for not doing that, but it's too late because my videos are scattered all over and actually the reason I wanted to list all videos was so I can find the ones I want and just rename them with proper file names/titles.

    On my /search page I added search term * and picked VIDEOS underneath. Seemed to find many videos.
    Logged in it seemed to find family videos (password galleries) also.

    Yes, I did the same thing in Search and chose videos, but search results are just boxes with no way to tell when they are from unless I hover with mouse and check folders. Also the filter section somehow doesn't have dates working properly. If we could have a list view with header row that we can click to sort date/size/duration etc that is the type of results I am looking for.

    I did an "inspect element" and in the html all the gallery photo links are there. Page source would probably show same thing.
    <div id="yui_3_8_0_1_1437410467135_2617" class="sm-search-resultset">
    <h1 id="yui_3_8_0_1_1437410467135_2618"></h1>
    [COLOR=Red]<ul [/COLOR]id="yui_3_8_0_1_1437410467135_2616" class="sm-search-tiles yui3-g">
      ...
      ...
            <li id="yui_3_8_0_1_1437410467135_10233" class="yui3-u">
                <div id="yui_3_8_0_1_1437410467135_10235" class="sm-search-tile sm-search-tile-video" 
                       data-url="[COLOR=Red]full gallery video link[/COLOR]" data-clientid="model_903"></div>
      </li>
...
...

    I can even refine results by camera!!!!

    Thanks Allen,
    Can that be used to display the results in different view?

    Not sure what you mean by different views?

    Sorry, I thought you were creating a new CSS to list videos differently, what did you mean by inspect element? Do you mean in Firefox?
    I am just looking for a way to list all videos in a simple list format with a small thumbnail so I can easily rename them or check them before renaming and also be able to see videos without having to go through each album.

    Can Smugmug implement smart album based on file format so we can choose Video and any new video listed would be added there.

    Hi, has there been any development on this where we can ask Smugmug through a Smart Gallery or by using a filter?
