I just purchased a brand new WDTV Live Plus from Best Buy and in general I love it-- it recognized my network immediately, netflix activation was super easy, and the picture quality is phenomenal. However, there is one large problem…
After I play a couple of files from either my NAS (an hp media vault mv2120) or from my desktop via network share, the third or fourth video I try will invariably give me either a black screen and do nothing. If I try to back out and play a different video, it will give me a blue spinning wheel. The only thing that I’ve found to work at this point is restarting the unit, and if I try to launch Netflix the screen will turn black and the remote will no longer work.
Is this a known issue or is there any known workaround? My Live Plus is connected to my router via ethernet, as is my NAS, and the computer is connected wirelessly.
