Western Digital's Wdtv - A Must Have For Portable Audio/video
When I bought the WDTV I was excited for the ability to watch digital video, listen to MP3s or play slideshows of photos on my computer. The WDTV eliminates the need to plug your computer in to the television. Prior to buying the convenient WDTV unit, I struggled with separate connections for audio and video, namely with s-video connections requiring an additional cable from my computer to the stereo. Well the WDTV eliminated the need for this.
The WDTV unit has two USB ports, rca video out and a HDMI out. Furthermore, it has an output for DTS. So very small in size, you can easily take it to a friends house to share videos and photos. Buy in conjunction with the portable Passport drive by Western Digital and you can take hundreds of gigabytes of media with you on the go. So small it can fit in a purse.
The unit comes with a small remote control. The interface is clean and to the point. You can easily browse between audio, video and photos. If your media has the accompanying data like title, artist or album you can easily sort and find the media you need. Furthermore, you can view folders either by the basic folder structure or you can set up playlists. The interface is very easy to use. During video play, there is a menu at the top you can access to turn on and off subtitles, zoom in or zoom out, or pause the movie. Furthermore, if you stop a video in the middle the WDTV player will ask if you want to start from the beginning, or continue from where you left off when you go to replay the video.
In the beginning, I found out that it lacks support for DTS. If you have an external device to decode Digital Surround Sound the WDTV will plug in to it. Otherwise it is necessary to play videos that have an AC3 tracks only. A good software out there to convert audio files is Popcorn Audio Converter.
Pros
Convenient, small and easy to use interface. Plays numerous formats of sound and video. Supports Hi-Definitinon videos. The unit is delightfully designed with a sleek black exterior and minimal lights on the front. Simplistic, yet a complex piece of machinery, the WDTV is a great addition to any audiophile or videophiles collection.
Cons
No support for DTS so may cause frustrations for the novice who doesn't know the differences between certain sound formats that are paired with certain videos. External hard drive lights stay on and so does the drive even if the power is off on the unit. The only way to turn off your hard-drive is to unplug it from the unit. A small price to pay for such a great player. The remote is very small and can easily get lost in between your sofa cushions.
All in all for the price, this is a great player to have.
