Not that I know of.
At least CS6 has the Video safe area as buttons on the control toolbar once the artboard tool is selected, making it easier = to turn on and off.
A workaround I have been using for years is to create a layer, draw the safe frames, and /or turn them into guides ( select the paths & hit Ctrl+5) which can then be toggled on/off with the usual hotkey for guides Ctrl+;

Does anyone know if there is a shortcut to hide and show the Video Safe Area in Illustrator (CS5) or is the only way to switch them on or off in the artboards dialogue?

It's driving me bonkers toggling them in the dialogue =3D workflow killer!

Thanks
