Nope.

Updated with no issues. Just want to add that it's about time for Resolved audio speed issue in M4V and MP4 after changing audio selection I have been waiting over a year for this.

Since I had problems with installing this update (previous post in this thread) I figured it would be a good idea to try playing an .iso. It worked fine for me, no problem at all. Moved around the menu from the .iso just like it should it played everything in the file fine.

I notice tho, that when I press the power button on my remote it now takes a little longer to power down to standby mode. I think I will run the update again only because I had an issue with the initial install where at the end of the update the unit didn't boot up nor would it turn on until I pulled the plug out and put it back in. Maybe another burn will fix it.....we'll see.

Do you have the Match Video Frame Rate set to On or Off?

To me it seems like it takes longer to switch off as well, but I haven't timed it.

---

You know I would check that setting but I just went through the entire Setup menu and can't find it....wanna give me a hint as to how to get to it? I guess mine is set to whatever factory default is since I don't know where to change it.

Ok it was set to OFF. So I set it to ON. Then I attempted playing an iso and it booted my Hub as if I had powered it all the way down. I would call that a BIG BUG and it's one that should get a "Special FW Update" , I think this is a little more important than a MLB Special Release! If you can throw something out there for that then you can fix this too WD!

Thanks for confirming that. Could you vote for the bug report in the issues forum http://community.wdc.com/t5/WD-TV-Live-Hub-Issue-Reporting/Playing-ISO-Files-Reboots-Hub-after-3-04-...

Same goes for anybody else that is having this problem.

@DeVicious - I fancy TV shows (as you say) and have several series on my WD TV Live Hub. I have not had any of the issues you are describing. This is likely becase all of my TV shows are labeled consistantly. Check out the program WDTVHubGen (http://wdtvhubgen.codeplex.com/releases/view/83495) and it will work wonders on renaming your files, grabbing metadata, downloading series icons and also specifying URLs for the Live Hub to download backdrops (once you select the video on the device itself).

@WD TV Live Hub devs - Thank you for finally rolling the Twonky Server fix that I gave to you into this new firmware! Also, what's the deal with Drive Icons... When will we be able to add  custom icons for the internal and external drives (instead of the default folder icons)?

In addition I found another issue...Currently when moving a video to another folder the associated .backdrop folder remains in the old folder and is not moved to the new folder along with the video file.

Also, the interface in this new firmware is about 10x faster! Awesome!!!

Tony suggested we should post the Brand and model number of our TVs as it could be a problem with the way the Hub and TV HDMI interact. For WDs reference I'm using a Samsung LCD TV Model LA40C550. I've also posted that information in issue report comments.
