How to create video folders?

I have a large number of videos on my iPhone and would like to place them in folders (albums?) to get to them more easily than running down the long list.

Is it possible and, if so, how?

Thanks, JR

iPhone, Mac OS X (10.5.6)

Hi JR,

The iPhone will put TV Shows in groups, when there is three or more with the same tags.

Just make sure the TV show information is correct by Getting Info on the TV shows in iTunes as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1399 , under *"Editing Info"*

Thanks and I understand the reply, but I'm talking videos that show up in the Movies section of iTunes. These are largely ones' I've uploaded for myself vs from iTunes, although I have the same problem with those. For example, I downloaded iTunes U videos and, on the iPhone, they each show up vs being in a folder. In iTunes you can group them, but this doesn't seem possible on the iPhone.

My goal is somewhat like iPhone Mail, where you can create and then move email into folders to group similar items.

JRD,

The iPhones and iPods will groups TV shows but not movies. You can Get Info on the movies and change the tag to TV show if you want to group them that way.

If you would like to see the feature changed, leave iPhone feedback here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
