The way the DR firmware works is as follows (simplified):
- During each start-up of the device the SD-card is scanned for changed/added/deleted documents, an internal database is updated with this info.
- New documents are automatically tagged as 'book', 'image', 'news', 'personal', 'help' or 'note' (or nothing), also stored in the database.
- When selecting the Books-view, all documents tagged as 'book' are gathered, sorted and displayed. So it gathers all documents in all folders.
- When selecting the SD Card-view, the same database is also used, but now only the documents that are present in a folder are gathered and shown.

It seems that you want something like the SD Card-view. This view is default enabled on the DR1000, but on the DR800 you need to enable it in the settings (Advanced Settings, Folder Based Navigation).

Note that the Books-view shows the name as it is in the metadata of the document, the SD Card-view shows the filename.

Adding extra icons on the Home screen is not possible with the standard firmware.
