New Firmware Release - WD TV Live Firmware Version 1.03.49_V (11/16/10)

Upgraded from 1.02.21 to this new version, after feeling excited for about half an hour now I have to downgrade to 1.02.21 again.

The problem is manual Color Space setting (Video Output/HDMI/Color Space) does not persist, I need to set it to “RGB high” to make it work with my TV, however everytime I turn off the device this setting will be reset to “Auto” with this new firmware, which gives me the pinkish display through HDMI when I turn it back on again. Yes I admit there is likely a HDMI negotitation issue on the TV side, but that’s why we need manual HDMI settings, isn’t it?

Luckily the package for rolling back to 1.02.21 can still be found here: http://download.wdc.com/wdtv/wdtvlive_rollback_1.02.21.zip

I guess I have no choice but to stay with 1.02.21 a bit longer until this Color Space issue is fixed in 1.03.xx. Very disappointed.
