This is what another smart guy found out: It seems that WD took the site wdtvlive.com/wsapps/appservice.svc/json/browseapp offline. THIS IS CAUSING ALL THE (FREEZING) PROBLEMS OF FIRMWARES IN AT LEAST THE 2+ RANGE! REMEDY: Redirect in your router www.wdtvlive.com to 127.0.0.1 or block the acces…

Ok, i am testing it and will give you a reply on this.

[image] News about 2.02.32 freezes ... from customers SO: SHAME ON WD, YOU CAUSED THIS PROBLEM BY TAKING THIS SITE OFF LINE! THIS IS CAUSING ALL OUR PROBLEMS WORLD-WIDE! PLEASE PUT THIS SITE BACK ON LINE AND GIVE US OUR BOXES BACK! NOW YOU HAVE THE SOLUTION, THIS CAN’T BE SO HARD OR BE IGNORED …

Very cool that the cause was found. Hopefully WD will see this but sadly I don’t think they care about the product anymore. Maybe someone could send the message of this thread directly to WD support?

it didnt worked for me either, I blocked and redirected the sites, but it freezed again… sadly :frowning:

I only applied blocking in my router, no freezes after 2 days. Seems to be working up to now. According to the router’s log file, the player tries over and over to connect to wdtv live.com thank’s for the fix.

Well, if this is true then it is very bad programming and it is beter tot bring out a new firmware then bring this page back online.

Cause Freezing found! WD, PLEASE PUT THIS SITE BACK ON LINE ASAP!
