I too modified DVR. I put the most used functions ( recordings, videos &
games) up front and also put video manager on the front menu. Everything
else is accessable through the regular DVD menu tree which is accessable
from the top menu as "Main Menu".
I got tired of hunting for video manager when I wanted to use it and
I got tired of hitting the TV menu by mistake. I nearly never watch live TV.
I could completely remove it and not be bothered.
I call my hack JediDVR.
