guys..thank you for your help..now i am able to project the sound into my amp+speaker...just some info sharing what i have done..

done networking with internet and its working perfectly.even FB with huge screen(looks funny though)...hehe..plus i can remotely control wd from my comp and htc hd2...


anyway, is there any application that we can download and install into WD live tv hub..example:google search etc ......

I need help.

Just bought a wd tv live last week. Everything was working fine until now. There is output of video BUT no sound at all. Anyone have a solution to it?

I'm using hdmi as output for video and audio to my samsung tv. Upgraded to the latest firmware.

I tried off and on as well as reset my comp for sharing the files.

MmxZero

Go to
setting -> Audio/Video -> Audio Output -> Select stereo
if you select digital, the audio will come out through optical
output only.

Sound should be output via hdmi too. So pic and sound should be ok

strange thing is that - when i connect only hdmi to tv, i only can get sound if i choose digital (all others no sound), but if the audio format is HD audio, i can't get any sound output, i guess i must connect it using the red and white cable (for this set i only have a non hdmi amp which has no optical input)

Thanks. I found out was my tv settings problem. Some how renaming the source could disable the audio system. Dumb of me.

So far so good. I'm enjoying it. Didn't realise it never play .flv format.

Are you sure WD is using realtek chipset?

which is suppose to be better than realtek (eg:ac ryan)
Correct me if im wrong.

HDMI cable also carries audio, digital audio. You'll hear the sound if the lcd can decode the audio format. In your case, you didn't hear HD audio because you tv doesn't support hd audio decoding. As for my lcd, I cannot hear audio at all eventhough I've tried all the audio settings. I guess my LCD is too old already. I bought it when the lcd price was still expensive.



I didn't realize it doesn't support flv. I'm gonna check mine. Weird coz youtube is in flv format already..


Oh.. really sorry.. it's sigma isn't it? Thanks for correcting me. One of the difference is,
one can play RMVB while another one cannot.



One question from me, does it support 3TB hard disk using the official firmware?

To clear the confusion, only DTS sound has problems because it requires decoding which some LCD/plasma or hifi don't have .... this requires downmix to stereo and output via red/white cables (not hdmi).

Yes, flv & rmvb not supported.

Just got my WD Elements Play (1TB), and it does play .flv files too

ah good to know there is an elements user here. Do you have any problems with certain mkv's

Any1 have WDTV 1st gen for sale? Need 1 for my kids bedroom..

TQ.

Sorry la I returned the set the next day due to issue with DTS . This model cannot run DTS audio coded movie.
Ended up with a different media player.

Thanks zeese and all for the help, no issue with audio now i have changed it to red and while cable, wish you all happy CNY gong xi fa cai!!!
