WDTV Live Plus restart after every You Tube Vedio-Current Firmware - 1.06.42 (1/2013)

[jm205]

I have upgraded the WD Firmware in my WD TV Live Plus HD to 1.06.42 (1/2013)  and found that You Tube Lean back is kind of horrible … every time it play a finish playing a vedio in you tube  it is forcing the WD to restart.

I heard the same issue from many users …not sure when WD is going to Fix the bug.

Issue 2: 

 NetFlix App is unusable now – It is not able to play a single vedio and erroring out " Can;t Play this Title" …I Contact NetFlix support but they said It is a know issue with WD if you have recently upgrade the firmware … “it may have lost my earlier NetFlix license number”

Please fix the issue ASAP. 

Completly disappointed that there is no bug fix …even after 1 year of release of firmware.

I think that was the final release before they moved it to legacy according to the rollback page, so don’t expect a firmware fix.

That was over a year ago and the old firmware files were also removed, so unless you still have the older files then you’re stuck with the final release.

I understand every thing is time bound and i am not surprised it moved to legacy …but if it was some thing horrible wrong…from their side.

either they should consider for a fix before declaring EOL OR they should make the old firmware  available so that people can roll back.

I am stuck and have to use Rad WDLXTV firmware …if i will rename my box to RADBOX instead WD  :) 

Thanks for the information  -appreciate your time.
