Too hard ot manage albums for Ambient mode if you have many

[rainmakerart]

I have hundred of albums and I would like to select only some of them for ambient mode on my Chromecast.

The first problem is that the order that the albums are listed is very random. Evem if you select Last Updated as the order, it shows only some of the recently updated albums at the top of the list; the other ones are buried elsewhere. 

Secondly, only a handful of albums are visible at a time and so it takes lots and lots of scrolling to skim through the albums to select what you want.

Finally, having a search album feature would be the best solution. Can we have this? Is there a workaround?

Hey there rainmakerart,

I am sorry about the late response, thank you for your patience on this! These features you have suggested would make using Ambient Mode quite a bit easier for folks with a lot of albums. If you have the time, would you be able to submit feedback via the Google Home app to let Google know that these are changes you would like to see in the future? That would help them immensely!  As for a workaround, really the only solution I could think of is having multiple Google accounts, however, I don't see this as a viable alternative. 

I look forward to your response, and if you have any other questions or concerns for me, please let me know.

Best regards,
Jeran
