Anduin, ... and all the others who responded,

Thank you for your helpful tips and advice.
> Turn on the various "[view type] browses files" options, as well as "Video
> List Loads Metadata". 

Perfect. Exactly what I was looking for.

The right option menu was buried in the interface a bit. I found the 
relevant settings in Main Menu->Utilities/Setup->Setup->Media 
Settings->Videos Settings->General Settings

Within the set of options presented there, I selected to turn on these 
options:
Video Browser browses files
Video List browses files
Video Gallery browses files

Now when I go to my collection of videos, it just browses the file 
system, which is all I really need. I don't really track any meta-data.

Thank you for providing the solution.
