I’ve never had a LiveHub or Netfilx problem until a month or so ago. Ever since, my ability or view Netflix movies has been degrading progressively and getting worse.
In the beginning, Netflix would freeze after pressing the ‘pause’ button and only a power off/on would make the LiveHub responsive again. Then Netflix would just freeze while I was wathing for 1 hour or so. By now, it freezes up after as little as 5 minutes of playbak.
This is VERY annoying and ONLY NETFLIX appears to be affected. I have no problem watchcing HuluPlus or very long stored movies, both standard and HD. I have no problem running Netflix on a PS3.
I don’t believe it’s the firmware. It SEEMS that Netfilx started to crash after they changed their interface and that happened after the latest Hub firmware update.
Everything else works just fine and Netflix does not crashl on the PS3.
Question: do you have a link that explains how to roll back to the previous firmware? Is it safe?
Here’s an official WD article that explains how to do it. You’ll lose what you got on the new firmware but you can update and roll back as you like if needed.
