Duh!  That was too easy. Not sure why it was not obvious to me.  Thanks,

So I put all my videos into a directory called myvideos-1.0 and tar 
gz'ed the whole directory.  now the following works:

DESCRIPTION = "my video test files"
SECTION = "examples"
LICENSE = "CLOSED"

MY_DESTINATION = "/home/root/myvideos"

SRC_URI = "file://myvideos-1.0/myvideos-1.0.tar.gz"

do_install_append() {
         install -d ${D}${MY_DESTINATION}
         install -m 0644 ${S}/* ${D}${MY_DESTINATION}
}

PR = "r0"

FILES_${PN} += "${MY_DESTINATION}/*"
------------------------------

You just have to put your newly created tarball of the myvideos-1.0 
directory in the SRC_URI.

Thanks again,
