Roydon Cerejo May 01, IST The demand for media players are increasing, as they are now highly affordable and moreover are capable of playing full HD p videos. Amazon beauty presents Vanity Diaries. But amongst these things, if you perservere, it will get the job done! That did not work for me? Checked 4 times all Share Rules, User Login, everything, but nothing helped.
Microsoft disabled SMB V1 for unsafty reasons, but many old devices still need it. This problem caused me many hours of frustration. After trying endless ways around the windows 10 update problem when trying to see network shares on my WD Live, I just reverted back to an earlier windows 10 build. The WD now works as it should. I also stopped Windows 10 from updating itself until I hear and see on an update that repairs the WD issue.
Hi Paul,its still a tricky thing for my System. Its not a smart Solution, but it works…Keep on trying…Peter Visit Topic or reply to this email to respond. In Reply To.

Now you should be able to find the shared directory on the WDTV.
I hope this helps everyone who has the sharing problem. Overall, I really like the dashboard. It's slick, functional, and easy to use. WD has scored some points with me here. PS3 media server works wonderfully with this device. I tested multiple file formats and I didn't have any issues in regards to video playback. This is good news for anyone that wants to store all their content on their PC and stream it to this device. The media player detected all the audio, video, and pictures stored on the drive and everything worked wonderfully.
Supports all the popular online streaming services. Folks that have a Netflix account will already have tons of content to choose from out of the box. There's something for everyone here. This device is insanely small, so you won't have to worry about it taking up too much room. There are two USB 2. One on the rear of the unit and one at the front. The rear USB 2. The dashboard features numerous tools to filter content to your liking.
You can also specify your favorites list so you can easily find what you're looking for. Seems to work very well. Not much to complain about here. This device plays everything I've thrown at it without any hiccups. Cons: Gets really hot during normal operation. Make sure you keep it in a well ventilated area. It just puts the device into standby mode, which means any attached storage devices will also keep running.
This device remains insanely hot in this state, so I don't recommend leaving it like this for an extended period of time. You must hold the power button for a few seconds to shut the device down completely. Takes a while to boot up after being shut down. Not a huge problem, but this can be annoying. For some reason, my resolution settings reset every once and a while. It keeps defaulting p, even though my HDTV's native res is p. This isn't something that happens all the time, so it's just a random bug.
Not sure what's going on there. Overall Review: I highly recommend this media player. WD has released a fine product here. When it comes to media playback, this device just works.
I much prefer this media player when compared to my old PS3 which I used for streaming previously. Cons: Its not so great for viewing photos because there is a two second delay changing between each photo. Overall Review: I am writing this review because I disagree with some other reviews here.
In my opinion the remote with this unit is better than most media players. The buttons work great, and I can aim the remote almost any direction and still control the media player. The User interface is also far better than most media players. It may seem laggy at times for some people, but that has to do with the animation they are using for the icons.
It does not bother me though. I've custom-encoded high-definition content using x settings that are meant to make the file as small as possible, regardless of CPU power needed to play. This plays them. It plays Everything. Cons: - Required a firmware update which was very easy once connected to wireless to play some files correctly. Some high-def movies, for example, would momentarily glitch out every minute or so.
May not be the best for large collections. Sometimes you have to wait a second to see the rest of a file name. Overall Review: For the cost of about Blu-rays, you can get or give a gift that allows one to play any media file, display any photo, or use most online streaming services.
How is this not a great deal? Pros: The WD TV is a easy-to-use, easy to live with device that doesn't overheat, doesn't get loud, and is easily added to your network. It will play local content from your Windows PCs without much difficulty if they're shared properly, and Netflix played without a hiccup.
The remote is well-made and comfortable. It's a box with a couple of specific goalsto stream media from a list of services and from networked computers, and it's almost too small of a niche for me.
The lack of an included HDMI cable also is a letdown, and the menus, while simple, are also slow. In the main entertainment center, the competition is a bit fierce, especially with game systems and disc-playing devices, and the rarer full-PC option. The WD TV product, though, isn't bad on its own merits.
