Re: Firmware Version 3.00.28 Excelent! no problems updating

 have to name the movies with the year, so it can be more accurate.

IE:The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 (2011)

The year is important because maybe there's a nother movie with the same name but diferent year.

The Get Content Info function will download the backdrops if available as well as the folder thumbnail pic in full screen mode but the cover art that appears in the file folder view will not appear.  To get that to appear you have to place a jpg image file with the exact same name as your movie using the .jpg extension in the folder with the .xml and metathumb files.

Re: Firmware Version 3.00.28 Excelent! no problems updating

I think the key phrase is: "I got my WB last week...". You have nothing to compare it to. Everyone who moans about the firmware updates are previous users who both, have lost functionality they were used to with their previous version, and disappointed that the new upgrade doesn't address problems or contain new functions from their wishlist.

 

Face it, familiarity breeds contempt.

Re: Firmware Version 3.00.28 Excelent! no problems updating

It could be, but since is new, and since i did the update, i tried everything that is posible and looking at all the problems i had none.

 

My TS files play well, and everything else. Also.. i did a hard reset after i applied the new firmware. Perhaps you are right and im new at this, but then again, i don't have any of the problems that most members are suffering off.

Re: Firmware Version 3.00.28 Excelent! no problems updating

I consider myself fortunate that I haven't had any problems playing videos, and I use all of them-DVD, m2ks, iso, mpeg4-name it, I've got it. No problem with music files. No sound problems, no freezing-nothing. The only problems I have are with the visual aspects of the user interface-namely showing graphics with whatever user created theme I'm using at the moment. I've upgraded the firmware twice and each time I had issues with the themes and or graphics. The graphic interface is important to me, and I hate the default theme, so I roll back to a version that works for the themes I load. I dream of the day when WD adds some different choices of themes.

I have suffered through a lot of the previous firmware versions, but I'm pretty happy with this latest version. The number of bugs fixed and new features, especially in the way the Media Library works make the Hub a lot better for me. It's not perfect, but for what I need, the Hub is finally working pretty well.

 

In your case peaje it doesn't matter what happened in the past as long as you are happy with how the Hub works now.

 

I just hope that WD doesn't mess up this good work in the next firmware :smileywink:
