I just bought the WD Live HD Media player and am pleased with it, now that I got the right dongle (grrr on the limited selection there).
I can access the YouTube, i can access my media server and i can access my network shares, no problem.
However, for some reason, when I try to play .mp3 through media server, I receive the “no content in this folder” message.
There IS content in the folder, since I can play it when I browse there through network share. I can also “play to”, with no problem. Furthermore, I can play videos or photos through media server… just not music???
Lastly, I know my .mp3 folder is set up properly because I’ve been streaming through WMP to another device for years, without a hitch. I have confirmed that the WDLIVE device has streaming allowed through WMP (default setting for all formats).
I’m running the latest firmware (I installed that before I installed the network) and I power cycled several times. I don’t want to start screwing with permissions because they must be right, as demonstrated by my access through network share.
Any suggestions?
