On the Live+. The Live does not have the required DRM hardware to support HULU+.

Thanks to WD team for update!!! :smileytongue:

hulu discriminates by country , that is  - only for americanos, not sure about other states of  both Americas thou.

So the question should be, why americans don't buy exclusively live+.

Pity, that  tl-wn821n ver 3.x usb dongles are still not recognised.

Did not say anything about macrovision (an analog copy-protection technology as far as I know).

 

I said the HULU+ streams are DRM protectected and the Live does not have the hardware to decode these streams. Same reason you cannot get Netflix on the Live.

First few minutes looks good.

Menu Games is not translated into russian.

In settings, networkls settings last item of menu is wrong translated or just something wrong with menu position, it's only part of item visible put i can press enter on it and reset logon account to network shares this is when it's russian language.

WD missed to include the languages files for Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian and Hungarian languages, only Chech one.

They also missed them in the other (Live+) firmware as well.
