group-title aka "Channel tags" should be on the flyout from guide

[CharlieMurphy 92]

Android beta 3.3.32 on Google TV with basic remote input.

Pressing left on the D-pad from the guide currently produces a flyout with the options in this order with the initial selection being the username at the top.

Username
servername
Settings
Search
Home
My Media

I propose that when the guide is up front, the left-hand flyout menu should have the "Channel tags" at the very top. The initial selection should be "Any." The order should be as it is in the m3u channel list, not alphabetical. We can sort them as we like that way. Making it editable within Emby is less important and could come later.

Right now this app is really clunky in the guide for TV input remotes that don't have number pads. The Android TV Emby app works around this with a "#" button that brings up an on-screen number pad, and it also has a shortcut to "channel tags". However, both require you to go to the top of the guide first. Let us press left and pick our group.

Thanks Emby team!

HI, yes it's an interesting idea. It's certainly possible.

@Lukethe horizontal bar that the web UI has would be better than what we currently have, in TV mode. BUT, putting them in the fly-out to the left or even right, would be better.
But one or the other or something else, please.
