Description of the bug
Created a "Home Video" type library, containing roughly 161 folders and around 5200 mp4 files. Images for the videos have been created by Jellyfin and stored within the library folders as it was chosen in the setup for this library. So this is o.k.
When trying to access this library from the Jellyfin UI i only get the rotating circle for as many minutes as i wish. Meaning nothing is happening.
For "Movie" or "TV Show" libraries i don't have that problem.
BTW the previous stable version of Jellyfin 10.10.7 worked flawless, even with larger Home Movie libraries.
Reproduction steps
I don't know. Create a Home video library with A LOT of folders and even more videos
What is the current bug behavior?
Can't access or see the content of the library on the Jellyfin UI
What is the expected correct behavior?
Clicking on the library icon on the Jellyfin UI should allow me to access and see the content of the library

10.10.0+

I reduced the folder count in that library to just ONE. After that the content of the library was displayed on the Jellyfin UI, but that took already a couple of seconds, definetly longer than with the old Jellyfin version, which was displaying the content of a 161 folder library almost instantaneosly.
I increased then folder count in that library gradually. With each new folder it took more time to load. With more than 10 folders in the library i hadn't the patience anymore to wait several minutes.
I tested with several subfolders in the Home Video Library type and 10 seems to be the magic number. More than 10 subfolders, and the (sub)library will not be displayed anymore.
As i said, between the old Jellyfin version, and this new Jellyfin version must have happend a big f.ck up, because the old version was working flawless with LOTS of folders in one library of the "Home Video" Type.

Can confirm

Should be noted that, for me, even though items don't display in the web app for mixed content, set at page size 50, I gave up letting it spin for 30 minutes, they do load in the Roku client just shy of 1 minute.
