Hi all
Please tell me I am doing something stupid? I have searched the boards found a few answers but no solutions so I thought I’d post to see if you guys can help me out…
p.s. I am on the latest firmware
Problem 1
When I first launched the WDTV live, entered the wi-fi info and connected to my Virgin media super hub (automatic settings). Was brill, was fine. Halfway through Scarface there was a pause in the playback. When the film finished I found that the connection had been lost. Tried reconnecting, without luck. I plugged in the ethernet cable and connected fine.
The next day, I still couldnt connect so I reset the system back to factory and started again. This time I used fixed manual netword settings. Network connected ok and I started adding content info for my movies. Half way through it went off again and much to my annoyance the network credentials I entered have disappeared!! I can only connect through the cable and have resisted another factory reset as I wanted to ask here.
What’s causing this? IS there a solution for the wi-fi?
Problem 2 - less of an issue
I keep my media on a series of external HDD, I plug in and watch. I have genre folders set up with genre thumbnails (folder.png, folder.jpg) all was well until I started downloading the content information for the films inside the folders. Now each folder has a thumbnail from one of the movies in the folder as apposed to the thumbnails I had made for the genre.
What’s the solution for this please? I have deleted the WDTV folder from the root of my hdd but it’s still showing the new thumbs.
Thanks in advance for your help(s)
