Featured files on homepage?

I managed to create a "featured files" block in the admin to put on the homepage, by creating a new entry in the database under sys_page_compose, duplicating the bx_files_featured and putting "index" as the page but here's the bug:

I doesn't show actual featured files, instead it shows the members (ie their "profile" picture) that have featured files. Also, in order to show these members, they have to be featured members as well.

My question is, how do you actually show featured files and not the members with featured files?

I am interested in a solution to this as well.

I'd love to be able to take the Featured Video and put it on another page.... I can't seem to find it in sys_page_compose to duplicate and alter.
