2.01.86 doesn't play mp4 after 3 plays

I just noticed this bug today. I tried playing a bunch of mp4 files which have been played to death in the past. After 3 files play I see a pop up saying “Cannot play specified file format. See supported formats” or something of the sort.

I see that this was an issue in the earlier versions of firmware, but I’ve never faced the problem then.

On restarting the WDTV live it works fine for a bit and again starts acting up.

Suggestions/fixes? I tried resetting the device with no luck.

I’ve just played a folder with 8 mp4s of varying length without any issues on 2.01.86.

Yes, but it is very random. For days its works fine, and sometimes it glitches up.

Guess will have to try to isolate the problem and see if it occurs for any particular type of mp4.
