Network share issues, Video over network always stops Options

[Gemni]

Hello everyone,
Not sure if anyone else is experiencing this issue but i cant stand it anymore. Makes this device just useless. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/angry.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/angry.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/angry.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/angry.gif)

I have all my media files on my synology ds110j nas. My network is run off a gigabit switch and everything is physically conencted via cat 5. I can connect to the samba drive via network drive on wdtv live plus. I can play the movie but it keep stopping the movie after a few mins. Regardless if its a 1080p movie or just a normal avi tv show. I get booted back to the list of media files. I have a popcorn hour player and it works fine with 1080p dts movies. No disconnects no freezing nothing. With this player I can barely get through a movie on this player with out it stopping. With the 1080p movies it freezes for a good 30 sec or so then goes back to the media list. I cant stand this disconnect anymore. I have the latest firmware on the box.
Any help would be great. HELP... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

I was thinking of going to brad firmware but not sure. Does brad firmware work well for samba media player on this wdtv live plus? Does it have the new netflix player that is out? Can i go back to stock firmware with out any issue? Any additional info would be great.

Anyone?

no idea, I don't have a similar setup.

as for WDLXTV, you can flash back and forth to OEM firmware all you want, it wont hurt a thing.
for shares, WDLXTV has the ability to mount shares so it's like having a directly connected drive (more or less..)

Thanks for the reply. Does the latest Brad software have the newest netflix or the old one? Just wondering that so good and different about the brad software. I know you can do cover screens for the movies what else?

no idea if it will resolve your issue or not, it could be a network problem..

latest base for WDLXTV is 1.03.49, new one for 1.05 is being worked on, no time frame for a release yet as the work is early on.
no idea about netflix because here in Canada everything they offer is at least 2 years old, I have already seen it or am not interested in what they offer us..

as for WDLXTV, many plugins, totally configurable through a web page, youtube HD plays everything I have tried, no restrictions..
ftp server, nfs server and can mount NFS shares, torrents, nzb's, samba server and can mount samba shares..

just the config for UMSP items, this is what's currently available on the web frontend config page
