Can favorites be removed and added

Just got this device today and I LOVE it but I can't figure out how to add and remove favorites on the  home screen

This new UI is great, but I am equally confused by this.  I don't know why my favorites are predetermined either.

Re: Can favorites be removed and added

You can ADD a folder or file to favorites by navigating to the folder / file, then hit OPTIONS, then select "Add to Favorites."

 

You can REMOVE from favorites by navigating to the folder or file in the "Dashboard," and hit Options / Remove from Favorites.

Ok I still cant figure this out. Will you walk me through? It states I cant even get into the dashboard until I am connected to a content source with media library enabled.

In the settings enable the media library, then add a folder too it from your media source.  Such as go to a TV folder and click options, then add to media library.  Now you can access the dashboard.

Maybe I am not understanding how this thing works. Media library is enabled and set to auto. Do I have to connect something to the device ? A USB or something?

It tells me I have to connect to a media source. I still havent got to the dashboard.

Add a share to your media library via that same menu where media library is enabled.

Re: Can favorites be removed and added

Guess Im destined not to be able to use this feature. Add a share. Is this trying to network with my home pc? I have no media on my home pc. I still cant get the dasboard to open. Frustrating. I click on System> media library is on, Get content info is on Auto> Click on meta source manager> I get movie -music -tv show>All i get then is add a new meta source. Im just not understanding where I move a folder or a file from and into where to get my dasboard to open. Sorry If im bothering to much. I have never used this type of device before besides Roku.
