i have a modded wdtv hd gen 2. and i have to say it was worth it for the ability of the mods. the factory firmware is garbage. i have been a wdtvforum member for a while and most wdtv owners will tell you that pch has no chance holding up to the modded wdtv. dont worry about wd factory updates because they do not matter. the wdtv modders update constantly and make vast improvements. i have only had 1 mkv file cause a problem which was easy to fix by remuxing with an older version of mkvmerge. i have modded my wdtv to do everything i want. and the moviesheet features alone are epic. i have never had a problem with dts though it will not play ogm and that is the only file type i ever saw it not play. i would recommend getting the wdtv live version because it has even more functionality then the gen 2 model i have. once you know how to do the mods and make moviesheets you will be glad you did not blow $300.00 on a popcornhour. but dont buy it if your not going to mod it. the mods are easy to do once you understand them. i have my own personal backgrounds and screensavers. but i intend to get a live soon because there is a new mod being developed for the live player that is going to make the interface look amazing. also the live can be modded to support dvd menu,s. here is what a moviesheet looks like. i have moviesheets for every 1 of my 2000 movies. next i have to make them for my tv shows:) there are endless variations of moviesheets to choose from this is just 1 version. and with thumbgen designer you can design your own from scratch. bottom line wdtv modded kicks popcornhour,s lilly ass.
