Proclaim Media Sort by Name and/or Sort by file name

Can we add the ability to sort by name in the media browser? The options there are helpful ( Best match, Trending, Most Popular Newest, rating), but they do not help me with my personal media which is identified by name. Adding the ability to sort by name and by file name would be immensely helpful.

Couldn't agree more! I often import a whole presentation with each image numbered 1,2,3 etc in order that I want them to appear. For some reason, they never appear in that order on a media board, which means I have to spend quite a bit of time search around, clicking on each image to identify which one is supposed to come next.0

I have posted about this multiple times and was directed here to upvote this feature. I will paste my original posts, without the replies of others to shorten it up, so that Logos understands what it is I'm asking and why.
(1) How is it not possible to search by NAME? Am I missing something here... I can search by "Best Match" "Trending" "Most Popular" "Newest" and "Rating" ... Yet when I upload things like worship loops they're named like "Shapes_Triangles" that way they stay together and I can use similar loops for all songs on a given Sunday. However , when I upload them to Proclaim there's no way to keep them together like that without a thousand tags... How is it possible we can't search by NAME?
(2) Not only can you not sort by "Name" but if you do take the time to enter "tags" on everything there is no option on the left that shows you your tags to sort by them... You have to remember or keep a separate list of the tags you used and type them into the "search". So if you have 30 or 40 different tags you might as well keep a separate list in a word document so you can remember them.
(3) What I am talking about is the media I upload. Yes I use the boards... I have a board for (1) Announcements (2) Welcome loops (3) Bumpers (4) Countdowns (5) Worship Loops and (6) Special Videos. The problem is the lack of the ability to sort my uploaded media by "Name". You can only sort by "Newest" "Best Match" "Trending" "Most Popular" and "Rating" ... So here's the problem with that. I want a Sunday service to carry a nice uniform theme. So for example I have four songs I want them to use the same worship background with four different colors, versions , or whatever. They were all originally purchased and downloaded from a different company we use to use and they always provided multiple versions of the same worship loop, along with a "Welcome" video , and "Countdown" video , and sometimes a "Bumper" video all with the same theme. There are ways to sort things , I understand that , but it doesn't make sense to me that I cannot sort by name. ALSO , in the Logos Bible Study program the "Filter" on the left side ALWAYS includes "Tags" giving me the ability to sort by my personal tags. This makes sense and makes things very intuitive. My post is regarding the lack of this feature... The ability to sort the order by NAME.
(4) My point is that , by sorting by name , it will automatically group all of that uploaded media together and you can easily scroll through your personal media , pick which group of media and theme you want to use that Sunday and easily add them to your presentation songs , countdown , welcome , &c. Again a very intuitive and easy way to deal with your personal media.0 -
I was just going to ask a similar question. Videos in the media browser appear as black images. Not at all useful. A great feature would be if actual file names would be an option for listing rather than just blank images.0

It would be so useful if the media could be sorted by date, name and type, similar to windows file explorer.
