How do I link from Videos straight to b\my video folders instead of seeing the root folder?

I just recently purchased the WDTV Live Hub with 1TB drive. I have the latest firmware as of this posting (ver. 3.05). I noticed that no matter how I setup my Video folder when I click Video it shows the device drive and I have to click on that before I see my movies and tv shows. Is there a way for me to set it up where I can click Videos then see Movies and TV Shows right from there?

Nope, as far as I know the option to create a shortcut is not available.

I was not able to see anything like that on the video you posted

 

you can check on the themes area to see if this is possible with a custom theme

First, look at the date of the video...  February 2011...  That was a year and a half ago.  A *LOT* has changed in 18 months.

 

If you want to do that, go back to the firmware that was "current" 18 months ago:  Version 2.03.04, which was released in December 2010.

Turn off the stupid media library and see if that helps getting there with one less press of the OK button.
