hehe! maybe cos WD only give 3years compared to seagate 5years on HDD so he also no confidence already on their products.. haha! tongue.gif

Seagate is officially downgraded to 3 yrs warranty from 2009. WD Black is 5 yrs.

that's why is good to buy seagate now before the year ends.. luckily I already got 3x seagate one teras plus 2x 750GBs from them. biggrin.gif

I smell a fish also! Why do you say it is RM360?

I was there first thing morning. The printed poster says WDTV is rm360, then they stick a star with the price RM399 on it. Maybe for PC Fair price it is rm360, then normal price is RM399. Now what? Should I buy at RM399? I got a feeling that the retail price will be at rm399 doh.gif

why you so kancheong? got mavy MKV?

btw how about this new eee box with HDMI port about to come?

http://chinese.engadget.com/2008/12/05/asu...ee-box-204-206/

actual back view
http://www.liliputing.com/2008/12/eee-box-...n-pictures.html

its user manual with remote control..
http://www.blogeee.net/2008/12/04/eeepcit-...re-eeebox-b204/

current in market eee box only RM999 and i am eyeing a thing that with super low power consumption (around 20W average) on 24/7 todo downloading and could play the HD stuffs directly..
*
was considering these N270 atom equipped.. but realized it's just too weak to play H.264 720P MKV properly (reports and user feedback say it's at 90+% processor utilization when doing so....) .. so back to square one..

guys, i seem to be having some problems with my WDTV. i cant seem to set it to HDMI. It still says Composite but it is displaying via HDMI. Once I turn off the WDTV, i cant get any display when i on it back. Even the composite signal is not there. I have to press the reset button to let it default back to composite.

any ideas what Im doing wrong sad.gif

i set Video Output to HDMI and Display Resolution to Auto

wah better ask HTkaki.. not many users yet.. sad.gif

there is a simple USB device to convert u USB drive into NAS, have a read at my blog (see my signature  biggrin.gif )

this is a sub RM400 device, so don expect too much from it...
*
do you have the USB device that convert USB to Wifi?
usually the ones available are computer compatible ones (but looking for those compatible with this type or other simple USB input Media players?)

the new coming eee box 204/206 is integrated with ATI Radeon HD 3400 and according to ATI website
http://ati.amd.com/products/radeonhd3400/specs.html
the graphics card is quite capable in HD playback

XP Home + Atom 1.6GHz + Remote Control + 160G HDD + 1G DDR2 + WIFI-n + Giga LAN + HDMI port + Radeon HD 3400 + builtin UPS + average 20W consumption (less than a standing fan?)
all for about RM 1000 or plus.. kinda a value pack isnt it?

yeah if graphics card can take the H264 decoding load.. (not sure..) then this could be a good thing..
at 1k that quite reasonable for a "play all" media box..

you can turn off the scan Media Library manually.  i think it scans one time on each USB drive that have not been scan previously

probably like the irritating Vista indexing function.. dem retarted.. does that (scanning) everytime I plug in a new HDD volume.. to copy MKVs for by beloved kakis here.. tongue.gif
