i bought a wd tv live hub a couple of days ago and am loving it. but i just bought a wd tv live to connect to it for another room. i see the movies but the type says unknown, and genre says unknown, and i literally thought it was broken for the longest time because it wouldnt play movies at all, eventually i found out it would start if i left it… for like 30-60 seconds. why they HUGE long start time? ive got both set up on a 1 gbit switch with good cables. i even tried playing a movie from a usb drive directly plugged in, it was faster, but still like 10+ seconds before a movie would start. on the wdtvlive hub movies start really fast. i thought i read the hardware is essentially the same. what gives? do i have a faulty unit or does this model just have horrendous start/buffer times compared to the hub?
also. if i put the movies into thumbnail mode, none of the thumbnails show up, where they are fine on the hub.
