In Library mode, it’s possible to get this easily. My issue is library mode is too slow for my library, and so Direct Mode fixes that. The issue that seems to be introduced is that it removes the ability to have “unwatched TV” and “unwatched Movies” as tile rows on the home screen. I tried creating these as collections, smart collections, and smart playlists on Plex, all to no avail.
Is “recently added” really the only possible source for home screen rows in Direct Mode with Plex?
