I want to roll back the firmware to the previous one which worked fine.  this new one (2.02.32) dosent let me play videos from my wd my cloud anymore.  it plays like 1 out of 10 videos now. have video codecs been removed in this new update?

 

Can I roll the firmware back easely?

Download the 2.01.86 firmware, copy all the files to the root directory of a FAT32 formatted USB drive.  Edit the .ver file and change the 2.01.86 to 2.02.86.  Insert the USB drive and do the “update”, it should revert to the former FW.

Mine got stuck, though.  I had to pull the power and restart, which got me the low-level “insert a firmware USB drive” message.  I stuck in the USB drive and it loaded the 2.01.86 firmware and all was well.
