Sure, it doesnt do thumbnails at all whcih is dissappointing, but i have all my anime seperated into different folders which it sees, so that makes it easier to scroll threw.

The only flaw i see is that theres no ethernet hookup which would have made it easier to do firmware updates and also stream from computer instead of getting another external hd. But i have a nice 500gb drive conncted to it and it reads and plays off it without any issues.

One thing i noticed people bitch about is that problem if you shut off a movie you have to ff or skip chapters to get back to your spot. I dont know what they mean by that. I turn this device off in middle of movies when i have to go out and it ask me if i want to resume it when i go back to it which it does no problem.

So if anyone does anime and wants a easy way to watch it on the tv, this is deff the device for you. Oh man, sony ps3 has got compitition now.

I'd agree that the only thing missing from it is a network port. Once it has that, it'd be perfect.
And the price is great. Maybe $75 would be sweeter. I can already see a new version coming out with a network port and Netflix support. It'd cripple Roku's in a heartbeat.]]>Jan 8th 2009 2:28PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2009/01/08/western-digital-hd-media-player-gets-a-longer-term-review/http://hd.engadget.com/2009/01/08/western-digital-hd-media-player-gets-a-longer-term-review/Problem with freezing after about 8 minutes of video playback. ]]>Mar 16th 2009 12:23PM
