So I know that the media manager is closed source, but there is something I’ve absolutely got to know as I’ve been trying to duplicate the functionality in one of my own projects. In the Media Manager, in the NSOutlineView on the left, the topmost heading says “Library Sections”. Can one of the Plex developers please tell me what font is used here? It’s the same font used in Mail.app and iTunes.app and for the life of me I cannot figure out what it is. Help please!
I'm not a Plex dev, but, it's the standard font used when you select Source List style highlighting, either in IB (in the Table View section, the first drop-down is either Regular or Source) or, in code:
[myOutlineView setSelectionHighlightStyle:NSTableViewSelectionHighlightStyleSourceList];
There's an Apple sample app called SourceView that uses it.
After setting the NSOutlineView style to the source list type, you also need to define which rows should be displayed as group headers using your delegate:

Thanks guys - that's a big help. Really nice to hear back from the Plex dev's as well as other Plex forums users.
