Review: Nice little unit and NO it does not play all file types - I did a lot of research before buying this device, and I am debating whether I will send it back right now. Everything in these reviews is fairly accurate but some comments are misleading. The interface isn't great, its what it is for the price. It does NOT playback all of your media, although when it does it does so sufficiently and it supports a lot of formats and the subtitles that may or may not go with it. If you watch a lot of anime, then probably you have some amount of HVEC or 10-bit files and you may or may not be aware of this. This device will NOT play these files, which unfortunately are the bulk of what I wanted to watch. I basically didn't want to sit in front of my computer anymore watching Japanese anime and this was going to be my solution, it isn't. Everything else I have found it plays well. Every now and then I get a random reboot, but for the normal types of files its pretty much what I expected and I know I can get firmware updates, etc from WD vs. some random manufacturer, so I think for most people this may be a good choice. I really need a full out PC/media center to play my collection. The reviews that say that it will play all of your files are simply wrong. It does play a lot of file types for what you pay for, so I have decided to keep it.You can download the full manual from the WD website and look at page 209 in the Appendix and it will list the supported file types. HEVC is not listed. If your inclined, handbrake is pretty easy to use and you can re-encode your problematic files to MP4/MKV and they should work. Subtitles are always problematic, but I haven't had any problems yet.
Review: A very capable player - This box is great for what I need it for. I don't use Netflix, I don't like Netflix and I will never subscribe to it, so that is irrelevant to me. I connect a 2 TB hard drive to it and play movies, music and watch pictures. This box does all those beautifully and much better than most competitors using the Realtek 1186 chipset like those from KDlinks and Micca. The WD player can do things the others cannot, like resuming a large music file after shutdown. Also, the startup time is very fast compared to others made by Micca for example, because it doesn't actually shut down, it just goes to low power sleep. So it takes about 15 seconds to go from off to playing something. The GUI is very pleasant and much more refined than the competitors as well. Is it perfect? No. I did have a few glitches at first and sometimes I need to restart the whole thing (rarely, but it happens). Also, customer service is a complete joke. I wrote them a question and they responded after 10 days with a stupid form letter that was totally useless. But the bottom line is if what you need is a fast, reliable, easy-to-use media player then this one is fairly priced and is more refined than most of the other ones out there.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is the difference between the newest model and the one before it?**
A: I have the older model WD TV Live (WDBHG70000NBK), with firmware version 2.02.32. It has Netflix and Miracast. Many people are saying this older model doesn't has Miracast, but mine has and works flawlessly. I guess it's just a matter of upgrading the firmware to get Miracast. It lets me mirror the screen of my Samsung tablet running Android 4.4.2 to my TV. And you can set the home screen interface to the classic bottom-sliding buttons, or you can set it to the new tile style of buttons and apps.

**Q: If an external hard drive is connected to WDTV via USB, are you able to transfer files to it from a pc on the home network?**
A: Yes, but it's really sloow!

**Q: does it get netflix**
A: If you want the latest with Miracast then get this. If you must have Netflix and you do not have another device that will play Netflix, then get the older Live version.

**Q: whats the difference of this model from the earlier one (WD TV LIVE) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005KOZNBW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8**
A: Biggest difference is there is no netflix on the new box.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Almost perfect movie player.
*by G***S on April 25, 2016*

I upgraded to this WD TV media player from the previous WD TV Live 4 months ago for playing a movie collection of about 550 from a WD 3TB USB 3.0 Passport drive. I'm not using any other feature just movie playing so this review concerns only movie playing. Setting up the player is very easy but you need to scan through a 244-page PDF manual to get the knack of the remote. The on-screen user interface is a joy arranging your files very neatly and with various options. To avoid long file lists I have created directories of decades ('20s, 30s, ..., '00s, '10s) with subdirectories containing each movie and a .jpg pic of the movie poster (found over the net). They're perfectly displayed File Manager style with subdirectories sporting the .jpg poster as thumbnail. Absolutely gorgeous and easy to navigate. Remote control has all key functions neatly positioned (particularly audio track/subtitles/chapters) plus you can go anywhere into the movie by entering the desired time - no more endless fast fwd or rewind. On the downside you need to press Off (red button) for 5 seconds on the remote to shut-down the player otherwise it stays on stand-by without any LED indication to show. Curiously that doesn't work all the time, it stays on stand-by regardless meaning the player's surface stays hot all night/day wearing itself for no reason. WD should have included a proper switch-off key on the remote for such a critical function. Second, future-proof it's not. It cannot play x265 files, the CPU is not fast enough. That means larger x264 movie files in your Passport drive, you may run out of space sooner than you expect and 4K will probably be down-sampled in x265 FHD not x264. However, for existing movie collections fine. Overall I'd rate 4 stars due to the on-off switch. Great improvement over the previous model and a nice buy for the price.
