Bypassing Plex's own media library

Plex Players Smart TVs

When I start the Plex app on my LG TV, can it go straight to my library?

Currently I have to navigate to it by going all the way down to ‘More’ in the side menu, then selecting my account.

It wouldn’t be so bad if it was on my PC or laptop but my TV is sluggish with Plex so I have to either wait for some time before it catches up with itself or constantly press the down button while waiting for it to respond.

Also, it confuses my wife especially when she hasn’t used it by herself for some time so she finds herself trying to find a film in my library but she’s looking through Plex’s own.

If Plex’s own media library can be turned off then that would be even better.

Thanks very much and hope you can help.

If you don’t want to see/use those online media sources, you can disable them on your account.

If you just don’t want to see them on the home screen / main navigation of a specific client (e.g. your LG TV), you can customize the app and unpin those sources from the main navigation (which will also remove them from the home screen).
