I am seeking help with my JavaScript script to make it expandable when a new item (video) is added to my SharePoint folder. I created a counter that counts each time the video button is selected and displays the new count inside a div. The script works as expected but I like to expand its capability to automatically adjust when a new video is added into the SharePoint video folder. The video is dynamically added to an HTML page when dropped into the folder. However, when I add a new video its loads into the zero-index position and move the others video down one; making the previous video in the zero-index position to the one position and so on. Can someone view my script and see; if possible, how I can make my current script adjust accordingly when the new video is loaded? I like to make it where I do not have to go back into script and renumber everything by hand when a new video is added. I hope this question make sense.

How I add content to the HTML: I use the REST API get option to detect a new item loaded into the SharePoint folder.
getFilesFromFolder("/sites/dcsa/ep/epMainFilesBI/video").done(function(data){
Then I concatenate the items from the folder onto the HTML page with the below script:
$("#column1 ol").append('<li style="width:30%; height: auto; position: relative; left: 5%; padding-right: 10px; padding-bottom: 10px; text-align: center; font-size: 12px; float: left;" data-event-date="' + item.TimeCreated.split("T")[0] + '"><div class="btnImg" id="growPlayPauseBtn'+ i +'" style="width: 285px; height: 225px; position: absolute; top: 20px; z-index: 10; cursor: pointer; padding: 10px; color: white; background-color: rgba(43, 92, 171, .35); display: block;">Play Video</div><video width="100%" height="auto" controls onended="videoEnded1()" id="videoClip'+ i +'"><source src="' + item.ServerRelativeUrl + '" type="audio/mpeg" >' + item.Name.replace(/\.[^/.]+$/, "") + " - " + '<span style="color: red;">' + item.TimeCreated.split('T')[0] + '</span>' + '</video><span style="text-align: center; font-size: 12px; float: left; clear: both;" "' + item.TimeCreated.split("T")[0] + '">' + item.Name.replace(/\.[^/.]+$/, "") + " - " + item.TimeCreated.split('T')[0] + '</span></br><div class="vidViews" id="vidHit'+ i +'">Views: <span></span></div></li>');
