WDTV Live Hub - Stopped Playing Files

Hi guys,

Newbie here, I have had my LiveHub for about 5 months or so now and it has been working well, a little slow and clunky but well, I went through the process of adding as many sets of info to the files as possible using the tool on the hub itself, only for these to be lost over the last couple of weeks. (500+ files, slightly annoying).

After spending hours doing this I then looked for a quick workaround, so I downloaded TVDB XML Fetcher and attempted to do this in bulk across the network from my laptop.

Since doing so, I now cannot play any of the files which played perfectly well before I attempted to do this. When I try and play them they just sit on a black screen with the spinning wheel.

Anyone got any ideas? Has it changed the video format or made it unplayable for another reason?

Thanks for any help

Why not delete all the xml data for one of the movies that does not play and see if that movie now plays.

Try resetting the player to factory defaults.

Can you see and play the files on your PC?

Yes can see and play files from computer.

Wouldn’t restoring to factory settings delete all files on there?

A “Factory Reset” restores your device and settings to Factory Default … and does not delete your content (media files)

Ah perfect, have never wanted to try in case I lost all the files.

Will try both solutions and come back if they still don’t work.

Cheers
