![]() ![]() I installed Playback on my iMac and idenified the folders to share and still had no luck. I’ve done a lot more than drop a file into the root directory on my iMac in response to the message “There is no media in that folder.” That was just one stop on my journey. But the inability to access my computer is disappointing, to say the least. Fortunately, I can access the local drive from the MacPro so can transfer files for viewing. My MacPro is set for file sharing (SMB & AFP) but the TV Live says “This server cannot be accessed.” I have tried every permutation I could think of and still get that message. It’s a small problem in any case as I use my MacPro for most media work. ![]() However, this iMac is running OS 10.4 (Tiger) and I understand that may be the problem. Well, I put media at the root level of the boot drive so I’m not sure what folder it means. It sees both computers, but gives me “There is no media in the current folder” for my iMac. I’m stilll trying to get the WD TV Live to connect to my computers.

What are other people using? any problems? or what has been your experience using the Mac with WD HD Live Would be nice to have the PC server PlayOn or TVersity ported to the Mac. It only supports one iPhoto Library and won’t transcode my years of DV files. A good deal for $15 bucks–really improved the experience. My best experience is using the media server Yazsoft’s Playback which greatly improved large MKV and TS HD files. I was able to get iPhoto working by connecting to the iPhoto Library on the Network Preference Pane/SMB by selecting the Library and control+click> “Show Package Contents” and added (dragged) the modified photos folder to the SMB sharing window. I love my WD HD Live as it does everything it says it does. Would be great if we could share information. On the forums I’ve been reading a lot from PC users networked to WD HD Live but have yet to see discussions of how Mac users are using their WD HD Live. ![]()
