Hello community,
I own my WD TV HD Media Player gen.2 (I know, not a “live” one, but couldn’t find any "not ‘live’ " section) for more than 2 years now, and it has been working normally without any problem until last month.
Since a few weeks now, there is a delay between each file read , be it picture, music or video.
For example, when playing music from a list or a directory, it used to start the next song just after the former one (with a maximum delay of 1 or 2 seconds between both), and now, with the same lists / directories, it seems to freeze for about 1 minute (or more) before starting the next song.
Same for pictures or videos.
During that “delay”, display is “frozen”, whatever button I try to click on the remote control (clicks seem to be taken into account, though, as I get the actions on my TV screen once the display “unfreezes”).
Nothing has changed between “before and after”, the hard disk is a 1Tb LaCie drive with about 250 Gb used so far (no hard disk reading problem when connected to a computer), mostly MP3 music and JPG pictures ; I never activated the “library” option, as I never took the time for it to be initialized (well … seemed to last for ages when I first started it, so I de-activated it).
I have updated the software version (from 1.01.70 to 1.01.77), but nothing has changed : the +/- 1 minute delay is still there whatever I do.
I don’t understand, I haven’t found any topic describing this problem around here, and don’t know what to do to make it work as well as it did before.
Any idea, anyone ? Thanks for any tip…
