If you go to the Video List (not Browse Videos) you will see a tree on 
screen that mimics the on disk tree structure you set up.  As another 
poster mentioned, though, you have to go to Manage Videos (?) first to 
make it refresh the DB with the on disk changes (unless you make the DB 
entries yourself like I do with my script).  My wife and I have an 
archive of Seinfeld episodes, a directory for streaming audio, and I 
have a small (but growing collection) of commercials I think are worth 
saving. :)  It's quite easy to navigate through them all, as they're all 
arranged in a neat tree on disk and on screen.
