[Issue]: No way to change libraries in "TV" mode

adamlwgriffiths commented 1 year ago

Please describe your bug

When using the "TV" mode theme, there is no way to go to the different libraries (Music, TV Shows, Music, etc) unless you manually add them to the Home screen.

In my case, I had removed them as they were entirely redundant when using my PC (they're in the menu, why would I have them here too).

When transitioning to my TV, the menu doesn't appear, and so there is no way to go to a library.

The only way to use Jellyfin in this setup is by using another device (phone, computer) and using the remote play option, through which the TV Jellyfin instance will navigate and play content.

To be clear, this is the Menu button I am referencing.

In TV mode, this is all that is visible.

As an aside, the menu really should just always be visible (Plex does this and it works fine). Without this, the first thing I have to do is explain to people that the 'funny dashes in the corner' is the key to using the application.

It seems there is a real lack of cohesion in the UI design.

Still an issue. The entire user interface is full of usability issues and needs serious re-work/re-think.
