Will Western Digital upgrade the software for the TV Live Plus HD beyond release 1.06.15 to enhance its functionality with the improved user interface, option to use a USB keyboard, etc. found on the new model of the WD TV Live Streaming Media Player referenced in this post?

USB Keyboards are already supported (and have been for some time) in both the Live / Live+.

[Watchmavin]

Thank you for that information.  I never knew that USB keyboards were supported -- probably not many owner do.  What about the "other" improvements?  It would be nice to have the benefit and know that I don't have a dead-end product.

It's documented and described in a number of locations in the manual.

[Watchmavin]

Yes, you are right.  The manual does talk about the use of a USB keyboard.  I just missed that.  The question still is whether WD will continue to support and upgrade the functionality of software in the TV Live Plus HD.

[Bill_S]

As I understand it, they are working on the next firmware updates for the Live and Live Plus.  What happens after that still remains to be seen.  I will definitely notify the community if there are any major changes in supporting these products.

[Watchmavin]

This information is very encouraging and appreciated.  Having only recently acquired the TV Live Plus, I consider an ongoing software improvement program important (as opposed to planned obsolescence) to retain customer loyalty.  Thank you.

Thanx for that :-)

I am still p??d because of the Apple Lion upgrade :-( Since then I cannot use my WDTV Live HD mediaplayer as I planned it. I keep travelling with my external HD up and down the stairs :-(

WIth kind regards
