any link?

Its the same link as where you download 1.01.01 version.

But they just change the file to 1.01.02. Its a small update mainly for large hardisk user.

http://www.wdc.com/en/products/wdtv/

emm, let me make an estimation:

1) WDTV = RM400
2) 1TGb hardisk = RM350
3) Converter = RM200
4) Optical + digital coaxial cable = RM50

Total cost = RM1,000

thanks

Hi, for those wdtv users would like to experience 5.1 digital surround sound, you can get Monster THX fiber optics cable for an affordable price.

fuiyoh, salesman

i recently bought one optical cable 6 meter length. Forgot exactly how much but 100 plus only. Including fedex. If buy here sure cannot afford

anyone having problem with auto arrange for videos when u rename it to chinese , mine seems to never follow the sequence

Come to think of it...I think get the WDTV first....

I've a Fat32 USB hardisk (I use for my Philips DVD player)....and will use those stereo RCA first...

bought these yesterday:

wdtv = rm380 thundermatch 4th floor (8 pieces left)
toslink = rm40 allIT 3rd floor
1tb maxtor = $345 viewnet

updated to latest firmware 1.01.02

tested on 42pv80 + 6 year old yamaha avr
avr detected dd/dts without problem

tested:
007.From.Russia.With.Love.1963.720p.BluRay.x264-HANGOVER.mkv
pq flawless, audio pretty good but center heavy.

dark knight 1080p
before firmware update, pq unviewable. after update, flawless

having problem with:
Chungking Express (1994) 720p.BluRay.DTS.x264-ESiR.mkv
pq awesome but audio stuttering every 20sec but view on com, everything is ok. will test using laptop to see whether it's the avr or the wdtv's fault.
same goes with:
blade runner 1080p hddvdrip

yalah my peasant optical cable memang cheap kind, the digital 1 becomes 0, 0 becomes 1.....
so when i play Beyonce, I get Beyond pulak....

me also using rm 20 punya optical from lowyat only, working good also mah ~ i wonder those rm 200-300 optical will provide better sound ?

anyway ... try my WDTV~ working good !!! now need save $$$ for bigger 2.5" hdd ~ my 160gb really too small liao.

yup, i am using the same setup oso for my ps3, my philips htib only have coaxial in...

ddkl, darn funny. Optical behaves just like HDMI. IMHO, it is either you get the signal or not only.

Mistake No 1

my wd tv. when i push my remote left right up down, i alway get scrolling effect. if i push up than up it goes for several time, if down same thing happened. this happened when i put it in horizontal mode.

i had to put my wd tv in vertical mode to avoid this flaw to happened.

is it a faulty unit or interference of other remote since i got lots of remote for my AV system.

Damn... The only reason for me That i wanted to get this WDTV is to watch My animes on my 40" Sony LCD TV

Too bad... Even with my own pricing.. it still doesn't drop down to 2XX... Where A casing with that price just kills me..

Excerpt taken from the youtube video posted above -


And the number no.1 biggest mistake home theatre owners made is believing that a $300 dollar cable (especially when carrying a digital signal) is significantly better than a $30 cable. Lets get something straight, most big box electronic stores make their profits on high price cables that cost less than a dollar or two to manufacture. The profit margins are extraordinary. Of course, they want you to believe that an expensive cable is gonna sound like the orchestras is playing in the room. Ultimately if you were to buy overpriced cables, the cables will be better than the cables they used in the studio to record the soundtrack in the first place. So dont be taken by these claims. Money spend elsewhere will make far more of a difference. Dont spend anymore than $30 or so on any standard cables.




Wah! liddat say, people ma no need to sell elite cables liao.......?!??

this apply only for digital cable, from amp to speaker, I still dreaming about RM1000/ft cable.
