guys, i need your help. sa tingin niyo ba mas maganda tong WD TV LIVE HUB kesa sa Mede8er 500x2? nagsale kasi sa yugadeals yung mede8er. 7.5k with wifi and keyboard na pero walang HD na kasama. yung WD TV LIVE HUB around 9k lang siya tapos may 1tb na kasama. sulit ba yung WD TV LIVE HUB?

Depende sa requirements ng user yan.

If you just want a player, WD is more than enough.

But if you want a full-featured box, Mede8er ang mas maganda, para torrent client capable.

Anyone has problems with the WDTV live HDMI port? mine's not working anymore after just days of using. I don't know what happen, but I recall plugging the ethernet cable to copy movies from my laptop, while copying I also played movies from the WDTV live, could that possibly destroy the HDMI port? I'm now just using RCA cables.

anyone tried a powered usb hub to this player? since it has limited usb ports (2), i worry that the ports will be subject to faster wear & tear as i almost interchange the HDDs everytime i use this player.

I currently have 4 HDDs sharing the two ports
1 x 1tb
2 x 1.5tb
1 x 2tb

@dowals

sir, why don't you just purchase a short USB cable extender and attach that to your WDTV?

so that the wear & tear is only applicable to the cable..hehe..

just my suggestion...

Fair price na yan but if you can get it less than that amount, that's called best deal....

You mean the WDTV Live (Gen. 2)?

Mahal pa, kasi the WDTV Live Streaming (Gen. 3) is only P4.8K in Greenhills V-Mall now, more or less.

When I got here in the US a few months ago, one of the very first gadget that I bought was a WD TV Live media player, I owned one back home, and up to now, it is still in perfect condition, sadly, the only available WD media player here is the newest version, the one with the USB port located at the front,
it did performed quite well, but somehow I feel its a tad slower in reading my external drives, compared to its predecessor, and the fact that I hate seeing a USB cable plugged at its face,...

I was about to ask my teens to bring my player back here from the Philippines, at pabalik naman sila next month, but I decided to seek out another one,....

Last Friday, I was able to get one via ebay, it is LIKE NEW indeed, everything was in pristine condition, and the good part is that I got it only for $50,... Now that's what I call I deal, set it up, tested it,
and it is just like my old player,...

Also got the wd live tv streaming media player as a gift from my gf. Very happy with its performance. Seems my housemates enjoys it as well. I chance by ebay and saw a posting of the wd live hd media player for only 30sgd so i bought it right away. I will be putting it sa sala for my housemates.

Is this the 1.06.xx? Any significant difference from the previous FW? Am contemplating on doing a FW upgrade but if there's no significant improvement, I'd rather stick to the stock FW (1.05.xx). Haven't encountered any issues so far, only wishing the "PSP" looking GUI could be changed.

TIA!
