VR Video no longer auto-populates

VR Video no longer auto-populates with the latest update. I can't find any way to make it populate manually either. I use an Oculus Rift.

Hello, are you using the latest Rift version 1.1.2(1367)? Do you mean SKYBOX will not automatically recognize the video as VR180 or VR360?

I am running 1.1.2(1367). I have two local directories with VR180 videos. I can run those videos in Skybox without any problems. In the past, once I ran a VR180 video from one of those directories, the VR Video tab would populate with all the VR180 videos in both directories. It no longer does that. Nor have I found any way to populate the VR Video tab manually.

Hello,
We changed some logic on v1.1.2(1367). Please add the two directories to Quick Access section or add them to Hidden Files section. Then the VR180 videos in the directories should appear in VR Video section.

Ok, that worked, so thanks. But I guess this has morphed into a feature request.

There is nothing labeled Quick Access in the app.
Typing "quick access" in the forum does not bring up the very useful link you provided.
The fact you have to access a folder and select Pin to Channels in the pulldown in order to populate VR Videos is not the least bit intuitive. Before adding a directory via Pin to Channels, clicking on VR Videos simply shows an empty panel. An explanatory blurb in the empty panel would be helpful.
