Hu guys,

Saw HD800B on the Himedia website. Does any one know if its available in India and if so how much does it cost?

Well, this thread tries to differentiate between WD Live (Plus) and Himedia - but what would the gurus out here recommend?

thanks for your replies in advance.

cheers

Re: HiMedia HD600B or WD TV LIVE in India Pune

Hi HiMedia users,

I have just setup my himedia and all seems to be fine. One issue I noticed is when I switch off the hiMedia player, I see shutting down in "Unsafe" mode! I am not sure is it because I have USB drives connected.

I have tried stopping the movie being played before power off and also tried the eject option on the remote! Has anyone noticed this message on the TV before the actual power off?

TIA,
Raghu

Re: HiMedia HD600B or WD TV LIVE in India Pune

I upgraded to this firmware yesterday. Did any one of you face problems with scanning files? Upon finishing scan, the database remains empty. Sometimes the scanning will finish in just one second and nothing is added to the library. After upgrading to this FW, the database view works fine.

I use a usb 2.0 cable of printer to connect the player to my laptop. Windows will always show a message to scan and fix the drive, even though I use the safe shutdown option of the player.

Hi,

I tried the above and I see the screen saying "UPGRADING". It is in this state for more than 10 mins now. Can you pls. tell me how long this would take? Worried as I see nothing much happening on the screen!

Ok, on trying this again, this time it worked!! Firmware upgraded and player rebooted properly.

TIA

the download speed for that upgrade file is 12KBps lol......

@dashdash

do the safe mode upgrade...by pressing the button on the back. Upgrade should not take more than 3 min.

Take ur ins file in a pen drive. Put the player in standby ...press the tiny button on the back..and bring the player back from standby keeping the button pressed. Once you see the upgrade screen leave the button and let it upgrade...


@baijuxavior

u can switch back to the old firmware 1.03.4 if you r having problem by using the safe mode ..as I wrote above..

Re: HiMedia HD600B or WD TV LIVE in India Pune

Has anyone bought HiMedia 600C. Really wanted to know if the FAN sound was that high that no one is considering it.

Apart from losing the front panel I see other benefits:
1. Fan for cooling (Can come in handy if one plans to use torrent dloads)
2. Higher reliability for high capacity HDD and longer running hours (24x7?)
3. The easy plugin of new HDD.
4. The price is effectively Rs1500 lesser at just Rs 7000 (comes with wifi)
5. Looks like the website shows more features : HD600C - Products - HiMedia

Any suggestions/comments? (I have sent question to Raghu too btw)

Everywhere price of 600B is higher, maybe due to USB3.0 and front panel, but they don't interest me as I will fit it with 2TB and forget abt it.
 
Re: HiMedia HD600B or WD TV LIVE in India Pune

^^. If you want to use the player 24X7, then hd600c is the best as it have fan. The bodey of HD600b gets warm and the hdd gets quite hot after 2-3 hours.

Both players use the same firmware, so there won't be any feature differences apart from hardware front. The usb 3.0 in 600b is only for connecting to a pc and you can't hook your external storage devices to it.

Installation of hdd is the easiest in 600b.
