Cutomizing the Main Menu

The Plex Plugin allows you to define the list of VFS views that you want to see in the Main Menu by providing your own plexmenu.json menu file.

The plexmenu.json file, must exist in the SAGE_HOME/userdata/Phoenix/Menus/ directory, and it must be a valid json structured file.

A sample file looks like this...

[
    {
        'title':'Unwatched TV',
        'view':'phoenix.view.default.TV.unwatched'
    },
    {
        'title':'Recording Schedule (Grouped by Date)',
        'view':'phoenix.view.default.scheduledrecordings'
    },
    {
        'title':'Recording Schedule',
        'view':'phoenix.view.primary.scheduledrecordings'
    },
    {
        'title':'Currently Recording',
        'view':'phoenix.view.default.currentlyrecording'
    }
]

The menu a JSONArray of JSONObjects where each object has a title and a view field.

The title will be what you want displayed in the menu. The view must be a valid Phoenix VFS view name.

Here's a list of VFS views. Please note that some views may not work correctly, or that views that return lots of items may take a long time to load.
