WD TV Live Plus is the Shit!

Just bought a WD TV Live Plus unit and added a 2TB external hard drive! It is the Shit! I can watch movies in VOB, ISO, Wmv, Mpg, AVI, Mkv and various other formats! In addition, I can add a wireless stick to it and then access movies from my computer's hard drive. I can also access You Tube movies and also subscribe to Netflix online and watch their movies. Watching movies in blu-ray format is just like watching them from a blu-ray DVD player!

I'm so EXCITED! Anyone else have one?
 
Still got the first addition that came out about 2 years and i'm still satisfied even though there's no wifi.
 
:yes: Got a couple, I download Bluray Mkv files and play them on it. My PS3 and Sony Blu Ray player have been sitting there like :hmm::angry:
 
i have the original one and that stays in heavy rotation. gonna watch the superman/batman apocalypse joint later today on it
 
I got both as well. I use the WD in the bedroom and the WD Live in the Den. I got rid of my Direct Tv 2 months ago($80 a month For What?), so I signed up for 30 day free NetFlix account. Netflix just adds so much to the Live. I can watch any movie and alot of past popular TV shows. Unlimited For $8.99 a month,it beats the Shit out of HBO,Starz,SHOWTIME...ETC.
 
been good with my popcorn hour a-110 for 2 years now got 1tb inside it 2tb external,1tb external,1tb external and 500 external hooked up to it via usb hub
 
Got both, I'd cancel cable if it wasnt for sports. With netflix and BGOL hollywood &music boards, I dont have any disc anywhere in the crib no more. All music goes through there to the surround sound and movies off the external or via wifi. Shit is life altering.
 
I just got this for my game room.

Thanks to BGOL cats for putting me on this. The Netflix and youtube on my LCD is the shit.

Hell I just download movies and watch it on my tv now.

Also thanks to thahoodsprodigy for the advice.

Loving this machine.

though it freezes sometimes it's cool. Hell I spend hours messing with youtube.

This is a must buy if you download movies
 
Yep, I got the WD Live. I usually use the hard drive connected to it, but i do have a wireless n thumb drive hooked up to it also for streaming:dance:
 
is the wireless drive just for the WDTV?
I got a Supersonic Portable Digital TV/DVD/SD/USB player and i use it to play old shows and movies off of my usb/sd or portable hard drives.

if i could connect wirelessly i don't know what I would do.
 
Just save more money,and pre order this.
This box will leave all the other media players behind in it's dust.

I have had mine for a little over a month and its is easily one of the best purchases I've made in the last 5 years. I really have no need for my Blu Ray player or Dvd's anymore. Shoot, I don't even need to hit the redbox anymore either. Plug my WD tb up to it and watch any and everything. I have more shows and movies to watch right now then time!

Question for experienced users... is there anyway to create files when your sorting through video files? I don't put porn onto my hardrive because I don't want guests at my crib to see me browsing past porn scenes while I try to get to a movie or show to watch.
 
I have my hard drive organized by category. Drama, comedy, etc.then there's Sports. No one looks into this folder. That's where I keep the goodies.

I'm moving into my new spot on da 1st and wanna hook my shit up like that, but I got one question, what u niggas do about sports(games and shit)
 
Just ordered mine yesterday... Newegg was running a CRAZY SPECIAL, I copped the WD TV LIVE and a 1tb WD for $90 shipped :eek:
 
Heres why you get the WD Tv Live. Buy it then go to wdtvforum.com. browse to custom/homebrew firmware and download b-rads firmware. It is very popular w/in the wdtv community and it TOTALLY ENHANCES the WD TV LIVE. you get bittorrent abilities, customized backgrounds and OSD, plus a ton more. THE BEST PART: using the THUMBGEN program (google it) to generate thumbnails and customizable movie sheets for all of your movies at the click of a button. These movie sheets include ALL IMDB info, backdrops you can customize using tons of fanart, screenshots from the movie. plus tons more. There are tons and tons of templates you can pick from to make your movie sheets. Here is 2 examples:
