Is it worth getting the 1080p mkv?? Or will 720p mkv be enough?? Considering the 1080p is around >7Gb and 720p is >4Gb? Now my average time to download a 1080p is around 14-15hrs, but with 720p i could get it at 8-9 hour. Roughly 2 hrs for 1 Gb..

But i think it's more of a "corrupted file" rather than the firmware issue. So far with v1.0.2 no issu yet - just the loading time i tad longer than 1.0.1...

QUOTE(mikapoh @ Apr 21 2009, 07:05 PM) Guys, I am trying to play Madagascar 1080p MKV file but it seems pixelated during the playback. Can anybody tells me what is the problem? Do you guys encounter pixelated playing 1080p MKV about 8GB size? I already updated to .06 firmware. Thanks in advance. from my experience, most playback issue about pic quality is related to the files itself. If it can play other 720p/1080p smoothly,, why would some be a problem. If wdtv cant play all the other file, then it's time to chase ur seller for warranty. try using mkverify to check for error..

WDTV can upscale? how do u guys update the firmware? via usb? can the WDTV play DTS decoded mkv passthru optical? i dun have AVR with HDMI connection... thanx in advance.. I thought PV80 is 1024x768, so it will downscale/upscale to 720p only.. - update via thumbdrive - for dts u need avr with optical in.. Added on April 26, 2009, 3:19 amQUOTE(nordingh @ Apr 25 2009, 06:37 AM) Bro, normally I set to 720p cos my tv can do up to that. This time after upgrade the firmware, resolution set to auto, but before set to unknown resolution. Other setting remain, only the resolution change everytime after upgrade. What do u mean by "srt to unknown resolution" - either u dono the pre-update resolution or it's "unknown resolution"???? This post has been edited by ic-klass: Apr 26 2009, 03:19 AM

Also facing slow firmware download from WD. Suspect its TMNet's bandwidth shaping. already loss count - what is the latest FW ( is it ...08??)

QUOTE(TuX @ Jun 28 2009, 07:18 PM) I'm planning to get a plasma TV with WDTV. But I'm not sure if it's the best setup. I'm thinking Panasonic's 42S10K with WDTV. Just the two of them, a direct connect without a home theater system. Is that okay? Or do I really need a home theater system? What's an AVR? You wont regret with plasma. and wdtv is currently the cheapest to experience HD. The flip side is u need a AVR - AV reciever, to listen to DTS encoded movies. there are my type of AVR out there - im sure it wont break ur bank to get one..
