Single category menu item displays all videos was created by steve30000

I'm not sure if this is a bug but it does not seem like intended behavior. I have a menu item for a single category. When I go to that menu item, the videos in that category display properly. However, if I add the word "video" after the single category URL (e.g. "training/webinars/video" instead of just "training/webinars"), all the videos from all the categories are displayed.

You can see it on my site at www.decisionpro.biz/business-users/training/webinars (the single category menu item)
and www.decisionpro.biz/business-users/training/webinars/video .

Many of my videos are only available to certain joomla group members and are displayed only on pages available to them. While the individual videos have the permissions set so the public cannot actually watch them, the user who finds the "/video" option sees the video names and screenshots from all these unavailable videos. The troubling part is that google has found this "/video" directory and has indexed all these videos that are intended for public consumption.

Please let me know if you have any thoughts on how to stop this. Thanks.

Yes, I have the same problem. If I set the name of the menu to be 'video', video can't be played.

@skillfulken,

I'm testing this in my local setup and I've no problem in playing the Video If I set the Menu name to "Video". Kindly get me your Joomla admin access details. So, I can check what is going wrong.
