Hello everyone, first time member and new to the forum, hopefully this is in the correct place.
I have just bought this unit 2 days ago and am still in the midst of setting it up the way i like it. After hooking up to my wired network the firmware updated to version 2.04.13. I was able to update and successfully reconize the unit in my network. I saw the folder “sample media” and made another folder beside it and loaded it with material as shown below.
WDTV
Sample Media
It’s always sunny in philidelphia
Season 1
episode 1
episode 2 etc…
Season 2
After the transfer was complete (speed was 800kbps btw, but thats another issue), before deleting the files from my computer i had to make sure everything was working properly. I went to my tv and everything was nice, i was able to see the folder and navigate throught them as i wished. I decided to turn off the unti, unplug everything and see how it would react as a precautionary measure. After turning the unit back on i had to re-establish the network connection since it didnt have it in memory anymore. Afterwords, the unit says i have 71 new items, if i go to
Video–>Select Content Source(red button)–> Local storage–> internal storage, the media shows up ONLY WHEN COORDINATED WITH
Filter(Green Button)–> All
i Am only able to see the files in one big mess , i want to be able to navitgate as mention before. if i try
Filter–>Folders… i get “There is no media in the current folder”.
I was once lucky enough to be able to get back to the menu where files where once navigable however after restarted again i am now unsuccesful in replicating these results. Im not sure if this is a problem due to my inexperience or if it is just a buggy unit that needs to be replaced. I’m happy to answear anymore questions.
