It has an internal 2.5 na 1tb na for 9k you can't go wrong talaga

HELLO SIMON,

@seph, out of the box  i've got the same settings of movie thumbs as with brader ABC
the files in my hdd, before purchase of the TV Live, is in folders with a single movie poster in it. na detect agad.

@ABC, OT: ang layo pala ng San Jose, NE. just came back earlier today.  we had to stay overnight saturday, too tired to drive back to Manila, we stayed at Maharlika Resort, first place we saw with accommodation.

Thanks bros ABC and Wally...

Now, here's the next problem I have...I've recently downgraded to a Technics mini component as my audio hardware for my room. It only has analog inputs (red&white RCAs) and packs only a Dolby Pro-Logic system...I know...bulok...(The GF doesn't like my "noise machines" inside our room, so put the AV in another room).

Compatibility issues? In the Mede8er thread I was told to use a DAC for compatibility.

Thanks again...mahina na ulo ko sa ganito. ;)

Installed a USB 3.0 pcie card on my PC,
DAMN, its fast,..!

It takes about 6 minutes to transfer a 10GB file via USB 2.0 from PC to the external drive,
and it takes only 3 minutes via the USB 3.0  :o

Nice,...

i own the wdtv livehub 1tb, does the new firmware fix the issue with wmv files? natatakot ako magupgrade ng firmware since most of the upgrades listed are mostly on the network/internet features.

Did not update my WD eversince I got it,
and have no plans as of yet, buti buting nagpe-play
lahat ng files ko, baka after update ay biglang maberat ang unit...  ;D

I just got the WD TV Live 2011:





P5,500 at V-Mall Greenhills.

Faster than the previous version.  GUI and software are much nicer too.  Built-in WiFi eliminates adaptor compatibility problems.  WiFi setup is fast and easy.

No, they don't sell WD remotes.

The store is Abacus (724 2908; 727 3172).

Marami sa Greenhills yan sir.  

WD TV Live Hub is common and easy to find.  Kahit sa SM meron yan.  WD TV Live Gen 2 is also easy to find.

Ang mahirap hanapin ay ang WD TV Live Gen 3 (2011).
  


Parang mas maliit pa sya ngayon,...  :o

Mas maliit nang konti.  Same width, but lower profile.
