How to view separate media libraries?

I’m a bit confused by Infuse’s way of organizing things.

I have a plex server with multiple libraries. That includes the standard “Movies” and “TV Shows” but also a couple more specialized ones: “Kids Shows” and “AV Test Files”. When using the native plex app, this is all easily seen on the sidebar and you can select the one you want:

But the same thing does not seem possible in Infuse? As best I can tell, it basically tries to consolidate all those libraries under TV Shows or Movies. Meaning all my kids’ shows get combined with the adult shows under a generic “TV Show” category, and my AV test files get lumped in under a non-descriptive “other” category. Which defeats the purpose of having separate libraries in the first place.

Is there an elegant way to view each library independently?

It sounds like your using library mode to connect to your Plex server. You’ll probably get what you want by using Direct mode and setting up what you want to see.

Thanks, I didn’t know that option existed and it seems closer to what I want. It has independent “recently added” (and other) categories for each library, but I can’t figure out how to just browse each library. There doesn’t seem to be a sidebar similar to what is in my pic above?

After adding Plex server to Infuse you will see a purple icon for the Plex server on the Home Screen. You can use this to access the individual libraries on the Plex server.
