I am running fireware 1.01.7. Haven’t updated cause it has be working just fine for me without the update. Til today went to browse my NAS and it say No media in the current folder. The directory structure on the NAS is Movies/Action/Movie.iso.
Haven’t had a problem with this before. I got all my movies in folders by genre action, drama, family etc. What could be causing this problem? Only thing that I have done different is setup FTP on my NAS. I can access my shares on my Media Server.
Nas is a Dlink 321 with 2 single 1TB drive. No I didn’t reindex. Not sure how. What I did do is remove users and stop the FTP and restarted the NAS. Still no media found. I also just put a file in the root and nothing there.
I have a synology and within the server maangement section there is a media server section and within that I have a button to cick to re-index the server. Do you have similar? SOunds to me like the issue is with the NAS rather than the WD. Also, as several others like to say, have you reset the WD back to factory defaults?
The only time I see that msg is when the NAS is starting up and the shares are somehow not ‘ready’. A second try a few moments later works.
But I’m using a modified config that includes bonjour and some samba fixes specific to OS X. I don’t think that would affect the wdtv live in anything but longer times for the NAS to boot/be available.
I recall something in the lines that when you modify the default settings for the NAS, the guest user access is revoked. Could that be the case?

Well I have tried to access them serval time. I have done a complete shutdow and restart. I solved the problem with some info from your post. I did a restore to factory setting and it is working fine now. Thanks for the help.
