Sir Waxx and Sir Barrister, thanks very much. It is now playing ok to the projector after I reset to default settings as you suggested.  Aside from that, I can now also play music even if the TV is off.  All the problems have all been solved.  It is now a full enjoyment, thanks again.
     After I enjoyed my WDTV two days ago, I turned it off that night (binunot pati sa outlet).  Yesterday morning, when I turned it on, nag "media library compilation" na naman that took it for 30 minutes AND TO MY SURPRISE, balik sa dati na kailangan naka-on ang TV just to play music (no music kung patay ang TV). Naisip ko na baka dahil hindi ko na "device restart" after "device reset", so ginawa ko ang restart after the device reset.  Afterwards, ok na naman to play music kahit iturn off ang TV. 
     So to try if I have solved the problem, I turned off again the device (including bunot sa outlet) then after ten minutes, I turned it on again. BALIK NA NAMN SA DATING PROBLEMA, EVEN PLAYING WITH PROJECTOR IS NOT OK.
     Kaya ko binubunot sa outlet kasi it is just like bringing it out of town (so bubunutin), and then I will use it there. Dapat di nagbabago ang settings. ANO KAYA ANG KULANG NA KALIKOT?

Try a firmware update.

Hindi dapat ganon kahit bunutin ang plug.  Yung akin laging unplugged pag hindi ginagamit, ok naman.

Mauubusan na yata ako ng ideas ...  :-[

Kung may sariling isip ang HDMI, baka HDMI setup ang kailangan.  Disable HDMI CEC ---

Go to --- Setup > Audio/Video Output > HDMI CEC > Off

Dahil ang connection ay  WD - HDMI - AV Receiver - HDMI - TV, disable mo rin ang HDMI CEC sa AVR.


=========================================

Ang WD ko, talagang may media library compilation after a full power-down.  So normal lang ang compilation every time you power up.

Pero di ba masyadong matagal ang 30 mins. compilation?  Konti lang kasi ang movies ko (around 400Gb, seconds lang ang complilation time), kaya hindi ko alam kung ok lang ba ang 30 mins. na compliation time.

Try rebuilding the media library to remove possible errors ---

Go to --- Setup > System > Media Library > Clear Media Library. 

After clearing, rebuild it --- Setup > System > Media Library > On.

Baka mag-improve ang compilation speed.

      Just now that I read your ideas.  Am now thinking na mali ang settings ko from the very start kasi after the media compilation is finished, ang setting ng HDMI CEC is OFF, so hindi ko na pinalitan ng ON.  what I changed is the audio output na stereo default, I changed it to HDMI passthru.  I will try to turn ON the HDMI CEC and to CLEAR THE MEDIA LIBRARY (to shorten the compilation into seconds like yours) Will update you after I am finished in this new ideas. Thanks sir Barrister

This is the step by step moves I did today at 1:35pm:
1. Power On . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1:35pm
2. Finished compiling media library . . . . . . . .  1:42
3. HDMI CEC to on then reboot . . . . . . . . . .  1:44 to 2:00pm  (16 min)
4. Device reset
    (connect to internet & compile media
      library)  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2:01 to 2:36     (35 min)
5. Device restart . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2:36 to 2:39     (3 min)
6. Before playing I checked the audio output and it was STEREO  so I changed to HDMI passthru.  Checked the HDMI CEC and it was on default OFF, so I changed to ON but it needs rebooting so it
took 2:41 to 2:47 (6min)

Now presently playing OK to my satisfaction BUT I WILL TURN IT OFF TONIGHT AND PULL OUT FROM OUTLET to see tomorrow if it retained tonight's settings.  Will update again tomorrow.

Turned it on and played music, receiver and tv on. A minute after, I checked to see if it still plays music after I turn off the TV, so I did, and to my disappointment, it stops playing music.  That means IT DID NOT RETAIN THE SETTINGS LAST NIGHT BECAUSE I PULLED IT OUT FROM THE AC PLUG.  That means, if I travel out of town, I will again set it up.
     I still believe, I will discover why it is like this, for I know it was not intended to be like this.  Ako lang siguro ang di marunong magsetup.  Tiyaga pa ng konti.

just wondering.. why do you have hdmi cec on sa wdtv? diba cec is parang when you turn on your cec compatible device, the other cec devices under it will also turn on?

from wikipedia:
CEC
Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) is an HDMI feature designed to allow the user to command and control up-to ten CEC-enabled devices, that are connected through HDMI,[94][95] by using only one of their remote controls (for example by controlling a television set, set-top box, and DVD player using only the remote control of the TV).[96] CEC also allows for individual CEC-enabled devices to command and control each other without user intervention.[96][97][98][99][100][101][102]
It is a one-wire bidirectional serial bus that uses the industry-standard AV.link protocol to perform remote control functions. CEC wiring is mandatory, although implementation of CEC in a product is optional.[80] It was defined in HDMI Specification 1.0 and updated in HDMI 1.2, HDMI 1.2a and HDMI 1.3a (which added timer and audio commands to the bus).[96][103][104][105][106] USB to CEC Adapters exist that allow a computer to control CEC enabled devices.[107][108][109][110]
Trade names for CEC are Anynet+ (Samsung); Aquos Link (Sharp); BRAVIA Link and BRAVIA Sync (Sony); HDMI-CEC (Hitachi); E-link (AOC); Kuro Link (Pioneer); CE-Link and Regza Link (Toshiba); RIHD (Remote Interactive over HDMI) (Onkyo); RuncoLink (Runco International); SimpLink (LG); HDAVI Control, EZ-Sync, VIERA Link (Panasonic); EasyLink (Philips); and NetCommand for HDMI (Mitsubishi).[111][112][113][114][115]
The following is a list of HDMI-CEC commands:
One Touch Play: allows devices to switch the TV to use it as the active source when playback starts
System Standby enables users to switch multiple devices to standby mode with the press of one button
Preset Transfer: transfers the tuner channel setup to another TV set
One Touch Record allows users to record whatever is currently being shown on the HDTV screen on a selected recording device
Timer Programming allows users to use the electronic program guides (EPGs) that are built into many HDTVs and set-top-boxes to program the timer in recording devices like PVRs and DVRs
System Information: checks all components for bus addresses and configuration
Deck Control allows a component to interrogate and control the operation (play, pause, rewind etc.), of a playback component (Blu-ray or HD DVD player or a Camcorder, etc.)
Tuner Control allows a component to control the tuner of another component
OSD Display: use the OSD of the TV set to display text
Device Menu Control allows a component to control the menu system of another component by passing through the user interface (UI) commands
Routing Control: control the switching of signal sources
Remote Control Pass Through allows remote control commands to be passed through to other devices within the system
Device OSD Name Transfer: transfer the preferred device names to the TV set
System Audio Control allows the volume of an AV receiver, integrated amplifier or pre-amplifier to be controlled using any remote control from a suitably-equipped device(s) in the system

did you try to turn off hdmi cec?

My present setting is HDMI CEC . . .OFF now.  Actually, I had it OFF before since it is its default mode after the DEVICE RESET is done, but because I want to discover why it cannot retain the settings I did, I tried all possible settings, baka matsambahan.  IT DOESN'T CHANGE ITS SETTINGS as long as it is not pulled out from the ac outlet, kaso, puzzled ako why it cannot retain the settings I did even it I "device restart" it after "device reset" is made.  It should.  DI KAYA EPECTO NG NEW FIRMWARE?

hmm i always pull out my device from the outlet kasi napapansin ko if i just turn it off, its still sorta running in the background.. (attached devices dont power off, the unit remains a bit hot etc).. but so far mine doesnt revert to the old settings... or may have not noticed it.. pero ok naman e, kasi default na naka on ang subtitles ko and network thingie..


did you try reflashing the fw?... or maybe, just maybe, may prob ang wdtv mo? baka hindi sinusulat sa system ram yung settings mo.. thats why nawawala.. or try another system reset.

Sir Waxx, you may have not got me fully all along.  My player works fine on all files, music, videos and internet things. The most important issue for me na dapat mangyari are as follows:
   1. That I could play music even if my TV is turned off. . . . . . it stops playing if I do so, so I "device reset" it just so it will work that way.
   2. Without "device reset", the video (thru HDMI) doesn't transmit to the projector,  BUT on the TV, it does. So to play my projector, I have to "device reset" beforehand.  (I have each a HDMI for TV and projector, 20 feet kasi haba ng sa projector, na changeably sinasaksak to the monitor out of the receiver)
   3. As you said, if just plain turning off the WDTV, it remains a little bit hot so I have to pull the plug from the ac outlet.  Then kinabukasan, wa epek na yung settings resulting from the device reset.
    I think baka epekto ng bagong firmware ito.  Kung alam ko lang ibalik sa dating firmware, baka ginawa ko na. Anyway, tiis pa.

1.  hehehe sorry sir, di ko nga naintindihan ang case mo di ko kasi binasa mabuti, anyways mukang handshake problem ang naeexperience mo, pero kamo this wasnt the case before you upgraded it if im not mistaken?

2. in that case, baka gusto mo bumili ng hdmi splitter?  para di ka narin plug on and off lagi.. i have one i dont use anymore, actually i have 2... isang bukas na at isang reserba... pm me if youre interested.. like i said, i dont use it anymore kaya bahala na si batman...

3. ill try to look for solutions on how you could revert back to the old fw/ reflash it..

For me, pag may problema sa HDMI, dapat mag test muna using HDMI CEC Off.

Kaya sabi ko, Off dapat:

Kung may sariling isip ang HDMI, baka HDMI setup ang kailangan.  Disable HDMI CEC ---

Go to --- Setup > Audio/Video Output > HDMI CEC > Off

Pag ganon pa rin, baka hindi na WD HDMI ang problema, kasi naka off naman ang CEC ng WD.  Kung hindi WD, dapat hanapin ang settings ng AV receiver and turn off the HDMI CEC on the AV receiver.  Kaya ang sabi ko:

Dahil ang connection ay  WD - HDMI - AV Receiver - HDMI - TV, disable mo rin ang HDMI CEC sa AVR.

Hanapin lahat ng HDMI CEC sa system, and disable all of them.  Kung meron din sa TV, disable the HDMI CEC of the TV.

To isolate the problem, try a direct connection from WD to TV, or WD to projector, to observe what happens when the receiver cannot affect HDMI behavior.


==================================


I think baka epekto ng bagong firmware ito.  Kung alam ko lang ibalik sa dating firmware, baka ginawa ko na. Anyway, tiis pa.

If you want to try a firmware rollback, here's the only way to do it:

     Sir Waxx thanks sa offer mo ng hdmi splitter,what brand ba at how much? Am asking my friend kasi to buy me one at Amazon.com ng ganito which I want to try.  Here is the link :  http://www.amazon.com/Sewell-HDMI-Bi-Directional-Switch-Passthrough/dp/B00629NHW6/ref=sr_1_71?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1344730386&sr=1-71&keywords=HDMI+splittert

    Kung sana mayroon ganito sa Pinas, tiyak marami ang makikinabang, kasi bi-directional. Anyway sir waxx pls send me the price and brand thru PM,thanks

Thanks sir Barrister, it would be a great help.  I will wait for my nephew to come so he could perform this thing.  Ako kasi, not a techie, pag sobra na pasikut sikut di ko na kaya.  Hope sana ma solve ko rin ang problema.

Sir Barrister and sir waxx, you have been very supportive all the way, thanks for that.
    Yesterday, sa sobrang kaiisip how to make it work the way I like, naisip kong tanggalin ang LAN cable for the internet kasi napupuna ko na it takes too long to compile the media library, at kapag walang internet connection, everything is easy. Afterwards, akalain mong naisipan kong "idevice restart" without doing the device reset which took it to reboot in 3 minutes and VOILA, when I played music and turned off the TV, pumwede. 
    So at night before sleep, I turn it off and pull the plug (just so to have this WDTV very cool in the morning. Warmer kasi pag simpleng turn off lang ng unit).  This morning, when I turned on, and played music ok lang siya at mabilis (di katulad kung connected and LAN cable). So if I need to listen to music with my TV turned off, "idevice restart" ko lang that takes me about 3 minutes, then ok na.
    May napuna lang ako na nagbago, when I stop the music, the sounds continues to be heard up to 2 seconds bago mawala, anyway that is just very minor, compared to my week-old problem.
    Sa ganda ng PQ and SQ, I will keep this unit with me for a long time pa. THANKS AGAIN

Good to hear that you got that sorted.  I didn't know that you had a wired internet connection.

Try a WiFi.  Iba pa rin ang may internet.  Sarap mag internet radio. ;)

Downloaded a firmware update some two days ago--no noticeable new features, unfortunately. Sana dagdagan ng channels like Twit, Revision3, and CNET.

Just got wd live tv streaming and mukhang di ata gumagana subtitle if streamed via dlna kahit nasa same folder yung srt e di lumalabas. Then minerge ko both srt file and the video and naging mkv ayun gumana na. Kala ko mababasa yung sub basta nasa same folder over dlna.

it also has to be exactly the same name apart from being in the same folder e.g superman.mkv = superman.srt

Yes same name. Mp4 kc una yung format ng video file then yung srt pero di nababasa srt so i used a tool called mkvmerge and combined both files to 1 and naging mkv ayun lumalabas na subs via dlna

Merging would work because it embeds the subtitle, i find it strange though that it wouldnt work without the merge.

maselan ang subtitle detection ng wd..


you need to have the same filename with the exact capitalization. 

eg:

if your movie file is TesTinG.123.mkv

your srt should be TesTinG.123.srt

testing.123.srt would not work.


and yes, they have to be at the same folder.

In my case, kahit may additional characters ang srt compared with the video file, nadedetect pa rin automatically.
 
Ganito ang labeling scheme ko for video, srt and movie poster art:
 
Bourne Legacy, The (2012) .mkv
Bourne Legacy, The (2012)  English.srt
Bourne Legacy, The (2012) .jpg
 
I use two spaces after the title and before the word "English".
 
If I use "Bourne Legacy, The (2012) .srt" for the srt file, whenever the movie starts or resumes, there's a mesasage on the upper left corner that says "Subtitle 1: Unknown".
 
If I use "Bourne Legacy, The (2012) English.srt" for the srt file (only one space after the title and before the word "English"), the message says "Subtitle 1: nglish" --- the "E" in the word "English" does not appear.
 
So I add another space before the word "English" --- "Bourne Legacy, The (2012)  English.srt".  Whenever the movie starts or resumes, the mesasage now correctly says, "Subtitle 1: English"

The best pa rin ang external srt for subtitles. 
 
If you have external srt subtitles and you want to edit the subtitles, madali lang.  Kasi external text-based file lang yon.  If it's already muxed in the mkv container, problema ang subtitle editing pag may napansin kang errors later. You'll have to demux from the mkv, then edit, then remux again.  In my case, I have to redo the srt file to edit, since tsMuxer demuxes the srt as an sup file.

Yes and no.
 
Yes, it can play SBS 3D as is, and the overlapping will be performed by the 3D TV.  But no, it does not support frame sequential 3D.
 
WDTV Live Streaming specs: Sigma Designs SMP8670AD 700mhz processor and Nanya 512MB DDR2 memory.

why does my wd tv live streaming can't detect my harddisk connected to my airport extreme base station router when I scan it via "Windows Shares" and "Linux Shares"?
I have successfully connected the wdtv on my Wi-Fi network. My movie files are kept in my airport disk, I would like the wdtv to stream the movie/video file from that disk.
Ano ba ang dapat na settings for those who have a same set-up?
sa pagkaka alam ko "Samba" ang protocol gamit ng apple dito sa shared disk drive connected sa AEBS.

I use Network Share for streaming HD content from my Buffalo Cloudstation to my WDTV Live.
