Yeah it seems so. Its strange but there is no way to do this currently.

Update:
Today I worked a little on file open dialog and added Show Filesystem Root aswell as Show SDCard entries. The last one should only appear if the SDCard is inserted. As I don't have any sdcard here free to test this it would be nice if someone could confirm that it is indeed working. (sources are updated on git)

I revamped the youtube search function to integrate the search bar with the browser page. This also makes browsing youtube and seeing popular or subscribed videos easier.
As I got some complains still about page swiping actions interfering with scrolling I deactivated the swiping all together which means you need to either press the dot in the top right corner or use the pulley menu to go back to the video player main page.

I tried working on video playback in cover mode but realized that this is not possible at least the GStreamerVideoOutput gives me a black picture on the Cover and the videoposter only a still image. If someone knows a trick on how to achieve a playing video in coverview please contact me.

PS: I also discovered this for all struggeling with codec support:
