        • remove displaying the progressbar while ffwd rwd or pause

          I don't think we need the progress bar displayed during pause (we can pop it up by pressing enter). Whike ffwding and rwding there should just be a little or no time display in some corner

                    These can allow to use any PC monitor with the WD TV HD player, since almost all PC monitor have 16:10 aspect ratio and HDMI input doesn't allow to change aspect ratio via the monitor menu.

                    • Additional button in menu for multiple video tracks in .mkv .ts .m2ts container

                      I have a lot off blu ray films and these films have a lot of audio tracks and some films have one to three video tracks.

                      So WD TV have an option to select from menu audio tracks in language that is more native to me, but it doesn't have option to select video tracks.

                      For examle one of my favorite films The Chronicles of Riddick have 3 video tracks - on PC i can choose tracks in player, but WD TV doent have this option - it would be great to make this option:

                        Enable both HDMI and Composite playback at the same time. So that the composite output can be used on a monitor for queing up a movie while the HDMI is connected to an HDMI switch.

                        • fix playlists so they can play files in a directory hierarchy greater than 1

                          Playlists residing in the same folder as the music files, or placed in the directory above the music files will play as expected. Playlists trying to access files listed in a path of 2 directories or more, fails. It shouldn't matter how many sub-directories a file is located in, as long as the relative path from the playlist to the file is accurate. Somehow this fundamental aspect of playlists is too much for WD to comprehend, as they designed it to only play files found 1 directory down. I take their "design" for "complete lack of knowledge for the technology…

                          • Make WD TV Gen. 2 compatible to 16:10 displays.

                            If a WD TV Gen. 2 is connected to a 16:10 display via HDMI/DVI-D, e.g. a display with 1920 x 1200 pixels, the WD TV is not able to use this high resolution. Only a poor resolution (720 x 480) is used.

                            Please, make the WD TV Gen. 2 compatible with 16:10-displays.

                            Thanks in advance.

                                2) Reprocessing of photo on zoom: currently WDTV processes the photos only once when loading to fit on the screen, and then when you zoom in, it zooms into the "scaled-down-&-extremely-sharpened" picture instead of the original file, generating a blurred, upscaled-back output whereas the original file has enough data to fill the screen. Nowadays even many cell phones come with 2.0MP + cameras. Full HD resolution is 2 MP only. So most of the time, when you are viewing a picture/photo, it is scaled down to fit…

                                      • AutoPlay Auto Play for WD TV HD Media Player

                                        Make the Auto Play (automatic playback of media at power-on) feature available for existing WD TV HD Media Player owners. This is a feature that is available in the new WD TV Mini Media Player. Auto Play should be made available for early adopters who purchased the WD TV HD Media Player to use in digital signage applications.

                                        Example: I work in a movie theater where the WD TV HD Media Player is used for playback of video advertisements. Pressing "Up, Up, Enter, Play, Enter" every day on a remote control is very tiresome. There is no desire to buy…

                                        • Selectable audio and subtitle stream for default settings.

                                          Just like a regular DVD player we should be able to select which audio and subtiitle stream we want our WD TV to have as default.
