Top Shelf: show Favourites instead of recent movies/tv shows

also remove the 5 items limit

@kambala-decapitator this would actually be great. What i've noticed on most apple tv apps is that they show what is up next for you. There is a plugin called Up Next which I personally use heavily - how could we utilize this plugin for top shelf (obviously only if its installed). What I think would be the best option here is to have a choice - 1. recent, 2. favorites, 3. up next (requires plugin) - is this at all possible after runtime?

@kaaspad yes, all of this is possible

@kaaspad Check if Up Next can add something to library . Then it should just work in TopShelf .

Yesterday I've tested Yoda add on. It has an option to add to Library (actually it creates directory in file system that needs to be added as video source) . I got episodes added to Library and got them in TopShelf . However top shelf got flooded with Recently Addedd Episodes . So first make sure, that TV Shows entry in Library shows something, that make sense.

We can also have 4. Live TV channels
