WD TV behaving strangely

I’ve had a WD TV for a few weeks now (bought it off ebay), When I got it everything seemed to work fine, but its now started doing two very strange things.

Firstly, if I don’t use it for a day or so, the only way I can get it to boot up is to turn the power off and back on again, if I don’t it just displays “no signal” on the hdmi channel and nothing I press on the remote wakes it up.

The next thing it does is if I’m streaming a media file from my WD MyCloud. It will play for 15 minutes or so, but it then just freezes, and I have to again turn the power off and on again for it to boot up, nothing I press on the remote works.

I’ve tried re-setting it via the options menu but that didn’t work, does anyone know what could be causing this issue and how to fix it?

Hi Dr_Evil,

Thanks for your answer. I have the same problem.
How can I do to return to Firmware 1.16.13? Your link is not available anymore…

Thanks

Hello,

The links is still working over here, other wise search on Western Digital Live TV Firmware Rollback.
I have tested Firmware version 1.16.13 and it also has problems with freezing and ffwd.
I have tested Firmware version 1.15.10 now for almost a week with a lot of movies at it works fast and without any problems, so i keep this version.

Greetings Dr_ Evil
