I have downloaded and installed the GitHub - kolsys/YouTubeTV.bundle: Plex YouTube video plugin. After restarting, I see this bundle is ready for configuration under Settings > Manage > Plugins. However, I do not see the bundle anywhere in the Plex Menu - ie, I can’t see any way to launch the plugin. What am I missing? I have a Plex Pass subscription. Do I need to upgrade to Premium? Is there some other configuration/switch that needs to be enabled?

Plugins : This was not a decision taken lightly, as they’ve been around for a long time, and we’ve had good times both writing and using them. But bluntly, hardly anyone uses them (less than 2% of users), the ancient protocol they use is a continued pain for clients to support, and if we were to build the feature again, we’d do it very differently in this day and age. For utility-type functionality, we love standalone apps like Tautulli and believe this is a better approach. But don’t panic—while the Plugin Directory will soon be gone, you can still manually install plugins for the foreseeable future.
However they completely eliminated use of what you’re asking to do - access to outside video and music services as plug-ins. I miss them as well, but there isn’t any intent for them to bring them back - so they say.
