I just purchased this and when I select video>Folders>Shared Videos, it only shows the sample videos folder… I have tried copying a movie to that folder but it doesn’t show the movie I copied to the folder only Wildlife in HD. I have went and made sure it was not hidden, I have shared it with everyone just like the instructions but it still can’t find it. Now this is with the USB HDD hooked up to my PC, if I hook it up to the WDTV Live it doesn’t even see the drive. The drive is a Hitachi 4TB SATA drive in a SATA to USB enclosure. The drive works fine hooked up to the PC but not with the WDTV.
Can someone assist me in getting this up and running please?
I have tried accessing my .5TB SATA drive that is on my PC also… I follow it down the tree structure to a sample which will play but if I copy a movie or song to that very same folder it won’t see it. I have a 2nd USB drive which is 1TB and it accesses it fine(even when it is hooked up directly to the WDTV). I have a 2nd WDTV arriving today and I will try that one and see if I have any better luck. I will post up the results.
