System Maintenance

The system firmware of your WD TV Mini Media Player can be upgraded to the latest release, which can improve support for media file playback and includes bug fixes and product enhancements. To ensure that you receive the latest update, we recommend registering your product at https://www.wdc.com/register. This chapter describes how to upgrade the system firmware and perform simple troubleshooting.

Solutions to more serious problems may require contacting your dealer or an authorized service center for assistance.

System Firmware Upgrade

Firmware is an important set of instructions that tells your media player how to operate, what the interactive screens look like, and how to do what you tell it to do. Upgrading the firmware is important because WD is always developing newer, faster, and more efficient ways of doing things that your media player needs to know. Important: Make sure the media players AC power adapter remains connected during the firmware update. A power disruption during the update process can corrupt the system firmware. Also, make sure that you do not unplug the USB storage device. To update the firmware: 1. Go to support.wdc.com and download the latest firmware update file for your USB storage. 2. Click Downloads, then the product name (or photo). 3. Copy the firmware update file to a USB drives root folder. 4. Connect the USB drive to the media player's USB port. Upon detecting a firmware update, the media player automatically opens a screen asking you if you want to apply the firmware update. 5. Select the check icon, then press ENTER. 6. Select on the firmware update prompt, and then press ENTER. This will update the firmware, then automatically restart. Once the media player restarts, the new firmware is automatically loaded.
