WD TV HD Media Player Firmware Update


Western Digital realeases firmware update 1.02.07! 

This player is still my choice for watching all those GB's of Anime and J-Drama's. Just attach your portable HD and go. Unless you have a dedicated Media PC, this is the way to watch your downloaded TV and Movies. Although I have been having some trouble with some subtitle files on occasion, I still like this player, it handles just about anything I throw at it.

From the WD Website:

WD Media Player would be an excellent choice, if it only had a firmware available for the DOLBY TrueHD audio support. What is the sense of having a full 1080p Media player without HD audio support???

I´ve bought one of these a few days ago ($99.00 at J&R Computer World, in New York City).
Amazing value for an anime watcher.
I have been watching fansubs on my TV using a notebook with a tv-out connection, but the WD Media Player is much easier to let connect to the TV, seems to produce superior video quality (but I´m not an expert) and has the most fantastic feature: a remote control.
Very recommended!
