A little help downgrading please

[kirk1701]

Guys, I’m following the directions in the other thread, downloaded the last firmware version 2.01.86 and copied to a thumb drive.

Boot the media player and I get the message new firmware available so I go into that and its showing me current version 2.02.32

New version 4.01.86

I don’t want to downgrade till I know if this is a TYPE-O or is this what should be showing

Think I found it guys; makes sense now LOL

WD TV LIVE stops playing, need to restart

Dear MrPink, Thank you very much your last suggestion which I did it and roll back the version from 2.02.32 to 4.01.86. And I hope the films will not freeze and the remute control functions even next day while it is on AC power. You will not believe me but I bought myself this gadget (WD TV Live Streaming Media Player) 19 pieces to all my family and friends and everybody is suffering from freezing after 20 minutes and remute control not functioning. Thanks again for your recommendations. Best…

@MrPink

The 4.01.86 is a bogus number designed to make the player think the version it is loading is newer than the installed version. Otherwise, I think it would refuse to load the old FW again. The version is actually 2.01.86.

Oh, and I left the “s” off of “support” in the FW link above. It’s fixed, sorry about that.
