Quite happy to use HDMI out from my WDTV to my Denon AVR-1909. It shows the big DTS Surround at its front panel.
But but later found out it cant bitstream True HD audio, so I can't get my Denon amp to light up the Blue HD Audio light and the Dolby TrueHD or DTS-Master for that matter......
WDTV cant play the HD audio simply because its HDMI port is 1.2 version. Only 1.3 port and couple with HDMI cable version 1.3 can stream the true HD audio...........
Seems like Tvix Dvico 6100 can bitstream HD Audio. Maybe consider it in future. However, judging from the price of this little gadget, I should not have complained more..........
Did anyone play the un-touched BD ripped 1080p movies? Any problem? Some reported not able to play.
wdtv cant do lossless audio and it cant play most of the BD ISO /BDMV files smoothly; judders, can't play at all or like slow-mo. Mikapoh, you sld check out the dvico thread as i posted some shots there.
That's the main reason i ditched my wdtv for Dvico 6500. Anyway, wdtv is a very good player at that price

How much is the Maxtor vs the WD? Got any comparison/reviews between both or not since U got both together. I need to get 1 this Friday but not sure which one to go for.
Maxtor RM332 WD - RM369. Have to reformat WD to NTFS. I didn't see any significant difference apart from the design itself.
