I have just upgraded to LIVE and i have connected it to my router and i can stream/play the videos in my video file. i can also play my music. however i cannot see my HD content. MKV and such like.

yet when i put the content on a memory stick the WDTV LIVE plays it fine.



I'll be a little upset if this is not the case as i am planning to buy a networking hard drive to stream mostly HD films around my house.

any ideas?

Also i have a problem with the networking section as it asks for a user name and password...

i have had it working wirelessly to and it plays itunes content no problem but it just will not see my hd files.

please help i dont fancy telling the mrs another media player is being delivered as i manily have hd/mkv/1080p content these days
