A layout preview with generated placeholder pictures: your server supplies the real backgrounds, and playing is switched off. Use the mouse, or and then the arrow keys, Enter and Escape.
Preview
This menu's background is the film's own TMDB backdrop, fetched by the viewer's browser from TMDB (the catalogue doesn't host it). The preview starts with placeholder art; tick Show the real TMDB backdrop on the preview to load it. That asks image.tmdb.org for the picture, which can then see your address.

- Revision 2 (2026-10-02): Uses the film's TMDB backdrop instead of the server's own, to show how a tmdb background is written.
Use it
- Download the file above and copy it into the plugin's menus folder (or install it from the plugin's Menu Catalogue page).
- Make sure the title with the matching id is in your Jellyfin library. The plugin finds it by those ids.
- Open the title and press Disc Menu. The Menu Files table on the plugin's dashboard page shows how it matched.

"notes": "The simplest kind of menu: the film's TMDB backdrop (the viewer's browser fetches it from TMDB; nothing is hosted here), dimmed, with a plain list of buttons. No layout, no art files. Extras are illustrative, not a real disc listing. Its Scene Selection uses the built-in default screen: a 3x3 grid with six chapters per page. Also: fade transition and built-in click sounds."
