Latest firmware, slow sluggish interface menu browsing, low memory, after exiting YouTube, Netflix

So, this was getting nuts. I thought maybe going wired, but through a wireless bridge might not be helping. I decided to try wired direct to my router. This did not help. In anything, I think things got worse. I’m now definitely experiencing bad lagging and menu clicking all the time, not just after Netflix, fresh from sleep, just stream a single show from my server and the box becomes frustrating to use. I even encountered a new problem. It likes to drop out to the menu while streaming a video from my server. The audio is still coming through, but no video. Can’t stop it either. Somehow attempting to play the file again restarts the video. WOW. Fed up. Downgrading to 2.01.86. WD get your act together.

 

it would be helpful if they respected their customers enough to tell us a new firmware is being worked on to fix this. But they’re dead silent on the issue.
