QUOTE(Matrix @ Apr 10 2009, 03:51 PM) The whole idea of having a player is NOT TO CONVERT FILES. Why waste time converting all the TVB HK DRAMAS with so many episodes??? To suite all your need... buy WDTV, RMVB player, TIVO and..... I have an RMVB player...but no use...collecting dust...lol. WDTV is nice, but nothing beats a real HTPC.  same idea like some people to have PS2, PS3, Wii, XBOX... cos want to play all game... My idea getting WDTV is to have cheap player than can play most of popular movie format.... if only RMVB is the left over format... then convert lor... |

QUOTE(Exarkun @ Apr 12 2009, 09:08 PM) Thank you! The hacked firmware works. I now am playing my Transformers 720p off the Samsung external DVD-RW drive. Flawlessly I might say. That good results but can revert back to original firmware or not later.QUOTE(billy08 @ Apr 13 2009, 12:05 PM) Anyone connected your wd-tv to a home theater system yet? How is the connection going to be like? Home theater <-- WD-TV --> HD-TV?? Here my setup.WDTV --> LCDTV = HDMI WDTV --> Onkyo AVR = digital coax Both LCDTV and AVR have sound. When I upgrade to latest version, my WDTV resolution set to Auto and output HDMI but the resolution is look like 320 x 240 cos I cannot read any of the character. Lucky I can remember the menu sequence to change the resolution. After that back to normal. Anybody experience this issue? |

QUOTE(Maniac @ Apr 15 2009, 06:35 PM) my WDTV was hand delivered by avenger to my house at Pg from SP! What a service! Guess what, the 1st chaplang HDMI cable (RM 39) was defective and my pana LCD refused to display anything after the WDTV booting. After 1hour troubleshooting,we gave up and went to buy another chaplang cable (RM 45) to try, happy story! If moderator bought my item, sure I hand deliver... Now i need to decide which firmware to flash  the WDTV is now connected to 32" Pana 720p LCD via HDMI, then TOSLINK to my old Yamaha RXV459.  Flash with the latest one la... all improvements inside already. I use a better HDMI cable, the cable so thick and cannot bend much, it's make my WDTV cannot properly align with other device. Use cap ayam, WDTV won't move.... Not sure everyone notice or not, while browsing (by file or thumbnail), press next will advance 1 page. Eject time also faster than 1.01 firmware. ps:- For those use Logitech Harmony remote, WDTV remote setting ready to be loaded to the remote. |

Don't worry about warranty. I haven't heard someone claim warranty yet so far... correct me if I wrong.

QUOTE(pltan @ Apr 17 2009, 08:48 PM) And bang on, I didn't read through 85 pages of this thread.. If you read back 10 pages, sure can find the price... Maybe I can give live price update from lowyat plaza tomorrow like I did before. Even I do reply to a new post, I still read all previous pages start from page 1, right now stop at page 55. If nothing to reply, I keep continue my reading. |

When I upgrade to WDTV_FW_1_02_06, after last reboot this what happen to my WDTV.
After power OFF and ON, back to normal. I have mention before but cannot find my previous post. First time happen after upgrade to WDTV_FW_1_02_00. I skip WDTV_FW_1_02_03 because 06 already come out. |

Viewnet at lowyat plaza still have a lots. Price 369 but didn't mention about hdd stand at the box fine print. My own box have that. I just went there this evening.
Added on April 23, 2009, 10:50 pmFinish upgrade to 07 without any flaw this time. Resolution back to auto. My hard disk still spinning after turn off by remote but I think slower than before. Is that spinning down claim by WD? This post has been edited by nordingh: Apr 23 2009, 10:50 PM |

QUOTE(EightPhantomz @ Apr 23 2009, 10:55 PM) At the front of the box where u can see the WDTV picture, u will find a small print as below. Lo.. I only look at the top of the box... maybe will look again later..."My Passport™ portable drive sold separately." AND "My Passport™ portable and stand sold separately." Now, u should know which is which. QUOTE(Exarkun @ Apr 24 2009, 01:54 AM) Just read this at AVS Forum: I just read about Spindown command. Not all external hdd will accept this command correctly. Even in Linux some user need to create a script to make it happen. GuyWD: This is normal. We're not turning off the USB bus power. Instead, we're just telling the drives to spin down. This is why some models of external drive don't spin down - they might not support the spindown command. GuyWD is from Western Digital. He's interacting with AVS Forum users on the firmware issues. I guess my hdd is 'some' of them. I test 2 hdd, both PATA. Didn't try my SATA hdd yet. Forgot to bring back home last night. QUOTE(EightPhantomz @ Apr 24 2009, 09:05 AM) This is a very good reason to get WD drive instead of other brands. To be safe. Offcourse WD will test using their own hdd first... I got WD blue notebook hdd but no casing right now to test. This post has been edited by nordingh: Apr 24 2009, 10:28 AM |

QUOTE(bleh @ Apr 26 2009, 05:27 PM) Just got back from LY. It' still RM369 in Thundermatch, with free KFC voucher. And yes, there are easily 100s of 'em Function and features should be the same... except cannot put WD hdd to stand  I believe Viewnet should be more or less around that price. Can't recall. Been to too many stores.Anyway I got the new version without stand, and with matte black remote. Just to clarify, besides the minor cosmetic difference, and the stand, are there any other differences between them? Functions & features wise? etc? I think they changed to matte black cuz the shiny surface was a magnet for thumbprints. Other than that, it should be the same device.  |
