Tv Supports 24p as it was working in previous TV Live firmware ( TV has a display option that shows “24p” when signal is 24Hz so I can tell if TVLive is sending 24Hz or 60Hz signal).
Did the Factory Reset to Defaults after upgrading to 1.06.15.v → Ng.
Power-Cycled unit → Ng.
Reverted to 1.04.22.v → Works again.
I frankly do not have anything BUT 23.976 fps video, so this feature is kind of important to me ( i imagine playback is smoother if done in original fps rather than having to insert frames to convert 24Hz to 60Hz, even tho the difference is near impossible to see).
If you do not have anything BUT 23.976 video, then just set it to 24p and be done with it.
Yes well, who knows, maybe one day I’ll end-up with 60Hz video. I’d rather “set it to match framerate” and forget, I’m lazy. But yes, this is what I currently do. Thanks for the feedback tho.
Thx to everyone for their help in giving detailed Hardware Info.
I sure forwarded all and everything as promised and wished.
Now after weeks with less then zero Feedback by the WD Labs / Support belonging to this i have given up on WD and bought another Mediaplayer which works.
The Support of WD themselfs ( not the Mods here which were really helpful alltime ) is the >worst < i ever experianced.
Selling a Mediaplayer with no Function to detect the Framerate is Stoneage and i can only recommend to have a look at Alternatives on the Market.
All digital TV manufacturers recommend calibrating your digital TV HDMI port to the source input. Did you calibrate your digital TV HDMI port?
Personally I have never heard of this ‘recommendation’. Can you tell us how exactly this ‘calibration’ is done, who recommends that you do it and most importantly how it would overcome this problem?
There is no such thing as recalibrating your HDMI port. I think what thepanoguy meant was re-syncing or making the TVs do auto-negotiation again by unplugging and replugging in the HDMI cable.
That will work with some TVs, but the WD box has problems with certain TVs and is just incompatible. It will not work with those TVs no matter how many times you unplug and replug the HDMI cable. (I have one of those TVs). The more serious problem (that occurs if you have one of the TVs that does not auto-negotiate properly with the WD box) is that the WD box does not remember the video settings when you manually set them. Also, after manually setting the resolution/frequency and color space, the WD box sometimes decides to change the color space randomly, while just sitting there idling on the home screen.
