I installed the 3.01.19 firmware yesterday and was pleasantly surprised.
-
FLAC files are now listed and play in the correct order.
-
The Media Library Manager for Network Shares finally makes the Media Library usable. I can add separate shares from different sources and the files will be combined into the Media Library. I can also manually rescan the shares, without having to clear the whole Library. This is how the Library should have been from the beginning.
-
Being able to add folders from the file manager is also a nice touch.
The only issue I’ve found so far is that some of my .iso movies don’t play, but this is a small number and even if I have to rip the DVDs again, it a small price to pay for having the above features working.
I haven’t bothered to check out the extra services - my Internet connection is slow and a lot of the services are not available where I live, so I’m only interested in Tunein radio which still works well.
Thank you WD for finally making the audio media functions work pretty well. So this version of the firmware proves that WD can add new functions whilst improving or fixing some of the existing basic functions.
The Mobile App is a nice extra as well.
Happy holidays to everybody and especially the developers at WD.
Thank you.
