Videos getting buried in pictures

I like the way that we can upload videos to galleries. But the videos barely look different than the pictures. Is there a way to look at only the videos in the gallery? Or put a big <PLAY> button on the middle of the thumbnail for the video? They often get buried.

Also, on albums that sort by date taken, videos usually don't have that exif data in them (suck!). So they end up at one end of the album or the other. It would be nice to be able to set the date exif tag on the video so it sorted correctly in the gallery.

thanks!

    No need for a feature request. This can be done with CSS:
