I hear you. I have 3,000 movies. Scrolling is just something you get used to. Or organizing by playlists.

Playlists display on the Apple TV hardware if you set them up with your computer. Otherwise, you'll have to scroll or search.

If you are displaying only purchased items, you can hide purchases.

If you use home sharing to show your complete library, you could remove items from the TV app.

Thank you for the fast reply.

I understand that Playlists can help when watching on a computer. But I don’t see how that helps whlie only using the APPLE TV hardware. It wasn’t an issue with only 10 or 20 movies. But with ~200, scrolling gets old! And I would like to make some past purchases disappear (or put in a “Do Not Watch Again” folder.

No. But, you can create playlists to sort your collection as you wish.
