Hi,
I did use the search but haven’t found an answer to my problem. I just got the WD TV Live and upgraded to the latest (official) firmware. It does play most of the stuff I tried to far, but unfortunately I’d like to watch a lot of files with the encoding shown below, which the WD TV Live doesn’t play. It says it can’t play a file of that type right away. Is there anything I can do about it, save re-encoding? From the specs, I was under the impression that the AVC codec is supported.
This is the media info output for one of those files:

If you could help me that’d be great. I like the WD TV Live but need support for this kind of file.
Thanks
