Unable to connect to Win 7

I’ve just been given a Western Digital Live TV Media player

Initially to try the device, I thought it would be straigthforward to connect to my Windows 7 64 bit PC and view photos in the ‘My Pictures’ folder

I’ve spent most of the last couple of days, reading the documentation, trawling the internet, and watching several UTube videos, including the one in this post:

Connect WDLTV to Windows 7

All to no avail - I can’t get past the login on the WD Live TV Media

The WD TV Live Media player can see my Windows 7 PC, but keeps asking me for login credentials:

username and password

I’ve tried the username and password I use to login to the PC

I’ve tried anonymous without a password

And I’ve also tried no username and no password

However, each time I submit, the screen refreshes with the username and password dialogue

I think I’ve set up the Windows 7 64 bit PC correctly according to the UTube videos and the sticky in this board

Thanks for reading and any help

I’ve been stuck on this for nearly 2 days now, so any help much appreciated

I’ve somehow managed to connect to my PC

I think what I did was to keep pressing the right arrow button

I deleted the anonymous username and cleared the password

Then I pressed the right arrow button a couple of times

Previously I was pressing the submit button and this kept re-displaying the credentials details

The right arrow button is not intuitive, so hopefully this will help others
