    Hi,

    I've been using the WD TV Live for a while now with a samsung 500gb usb powered drive attached & connected to my TV by HDMI.......worked fine.

    I have just switched to a MAC and found i couldnt save files to that drive when it was connected to the MAC desktop...figure that I need to format it so I can copy .avi files to it on the mac and that the WD TV can then read them.

    I've tried a couple of formatting options using the disk utility on the MAC and can get the copying thing happening but the WD TV won't recognise the drive when i connect via the USB.

    Sorry for such a newbie query but I'd be real grateful for any suggestions.

    Cheers

    Nick
