That’s the answer Tony. I turned off the ML a while back as I was no longer using it, and found all my favorites gone. Unfortunatly took me close to a week to associate the two things while I chased my tail trying to figure it out. It’'s a shame that the system has to be setup that way. I really liked having my favorite internet applications all in one place as opposed to having to move through the menus to get to each one.
I don’t understand this… The “My Favorites” is just a grouping of the pre-defined apps in the Services section.
I can certainly test this though. I’ll just boot it up without the USB drive attached.
If that turns out to be the case, there’s no way I can use it as the USB drive I have has hundreds of files on it and takes so long to scan when the library is on.
It’s not a big deal, however. I can live without adding Netflix and a few others to the “My Favorites” in Services.
Maybe they can get this changed in the next firmware update? o:-)
I wouldn’t bet on it. Smarter minds than I understand this stuff (Tony?), but it is the same on the HUB as well, so I assume it is an architectural issue with the way ML is designed. Reworking of the ML would seem like something that would be a major revision of the software, and not a FW update for each of the different WD devices.
I’ve just learned to live without favorites. Not optimal but not so bad.
