I have a WD TV which I need to update its firmware manually as when I get to check it whilst connected to network, it prompts that it is up to date. Currently, the F/W version shows as 1.02.17. I have checked the WD Support and found out that this version doesn’t even show at the bottom of the list. In fact the list starts at 1.04.12! The most recent version available is 2.01.86, which I.

WD TV Live Plus (WD TV Live 2nd Gen)[edit]

Released early in 2010[11] and having all the features of the WD TV Live along with Netflix streaming support. In order to support Netflix, a macrovision enabled SoC was required (Sigma Designs SMP8654) and the Linux system is also now encrypted.[12] However, actual user experience has lagged for some. As of April 12, 2011,[13] Netflix Canada works on a WD Live TV Plus as long as the firmware has been upgraded to version 1.04.31_B or newer. It is also known as WDTV Live Plus (Model number WDBABX0000NBK, WDBREC0000NBK, WDBG3A0000NBK).

WD TV Play (WD TV 4th Gen)[edit]

According to the WD Site, it was released in early 2013.[17] (NTSC model number WDBMBA0000NBK). Their exact words are:

With the WD TV Play Media Player, we have changed the interface, while retaining all of the favorite features such as customizable themes, the ability to get content info from the internet, as well as the same built-in wireless capabilities used by the WD TV Live Streaming Media Player. Also, like the WD TV Live Plus, WD TV Live Streaming, and WD TV Live Hub, the WD TV Play is capable of playing DRM protected services. The remote control has been modified to fit the model's compact design, and we added specific buttons to the favorite Online Services for quick access to them.

The software does not support DTS or MPEG2, as these features were removed.
