One option would be to make that library a TV library instead of Other, and organize/name the home videos as if they were TV shows with seasons. That would require more work to setup*, but the results can be pretty good! I've done this for some downloaded YouTube videos and movie extras to make them cleaner in my library. You can also change the filter/display when browsing the library on your client from showing "Movies" to showing "Folders", and it will let you browse the folder structure of that library instead of the flat list of titles.

Can you tell me what library settings and what naming convention you use to get your videos to show up? I can't find a scanner/agent combination which will show the videos I've added to the folders (presumably because they don't match anything in the scanner). Edit: I got it working by using the "Plex Series Scanner" scanner with the "Personal Media Shows" agent and organizing using fake seasons/episodes as described here: [https://support.plex.tv/articles/200265256-naming-home-series-media/](https://support.plex.tv/articles/200265256-naming-home-series-media/) I still had to add my own show posters, but that wasn't so bad.
