Plex DLNA server - can we remove unnecessary view folders

Is it possible to remove unnecessary views/folders shown on DLNA players ?

I need only ‘by Folder’ view - since I have lot of movies arranged in folders. But on all players ( LG TV, Samsung TV, Windows Media…) Plex DLNA server shows dozens(!) of ‘views’ as different folders like ‘All Videos’,‘Latest videos’,‘By Genre’,‘By Year’,‘Unwatched’… and I only need ‘By Folder’ view.

To be clear, I’m talking about Plex DLNA server on QNAP, which serves to any DLNA client/player (I tried on LG TV and Samsung TV) multiple folders as different ‘views’ to same video files. So this is not due to DLNA clients, but due to what DLNA server (Plex) is serving them.

That is currently only show-stopper that is preventing me to move from QNAP Twonky to QNAP Plex … Twonky had multiple folder views too, but it was possible to remove them via SSH by modifying some config files.

Is something similar possible with Plex - to modify some config file (even if UI does not offer such option) and serve only “By Folders” view to DLNA clients ?
