The default TV Shows can be altered - it's a node just like any new node you might create. It's up to you if you want to edit the current node or add a new one. I was just pointing out that editing nodes doesn't affect the available sort options - nodes can only specify what the default sorting is.
The TV Shows menu likely showed up automatically because it has a visibility condition attached that only shows when you have TV Shows in your library - most likely 'Library.HasContent(TVShows)'
To set a new home menu item with Amber to a custom node either:-
(a) - (with current Amber versions on the repo) - Add the node to favourites via the context menu. It can then be selected as the action for any of the custom menu items available.
(b) - (with the current test version of Amber for Krypton, and with the Skin Shortcuts script installed) - enable using Skin Shortcuts for selecting home screen items in the skins settings, and then when setting up your new menu item browse to your new node via 'Video Library >' and then select 'Create menu item to here'
Edit: I'm not aware of any tutorials at all for the Library Node Editor. However, any tutorials for the Video Node Editor are directly applicable as it is the direct descendant of that add-on, with the single exception that you need to select 'Video Library' at the first level to indicate you're editing the video nodes rather than music nodes (and, in terms of general use, it supports creating both 'rule based' and 'path based' nodes, whereas the original editor only supported rule based - and it's rule-based you're going to want to use for what you want, based on what you've said so far).
