You still need to select the "Video List Loads Meta Data" option, it should
load then. It works for me with that option enabled (the underlying reason
for that option is probably small enough now that I've considered removing
it, but haven't, mostly because someone out there has 10000+ videos and will
complain).

Yeah, was going to be intended, then I discovered that the VIDEO_TS part of
the path was never in the DB so I reverted to make folders with VIDEO_TS
subdirectories appear as files. This is only in my local tree, I'll update
the patch again (later) so you can try it.

VideoList being the underlying metadata aggregator class, not the view. It
is done in the patch that is up there. It was done to make switching views
with the same data faster (still could be slightly faster by detecting the
same filter). If you have a small collection of videos you will never
notice, however with people complaining about 10000+ one of my goals for
0.20 was to make it a little faster.
