I recently bought a new gen WD TV Live that has the updated GUI and when I go to play this movie (Men in Black) it will play it for about 30 secs with no sound then freeze. I hit "home" on the remote and went back to try a different movie that I've already played and it just says, "Unable to play the selected file. Please refer to the user manual on how to change the file to a supported format."
No matter what video/movie I selected after that it just repeated the same message, I had to do a hard reset by unplugging the unit then plugging it back in since powering it down using the remote didn't do anything. After that I tried several of my other movies, all worked fine. I went back to try playing Men in Black again to see if the problem would repeat, yep, so it's definitely the movie, however it is encoded messes up the player completely.
What's funny is I tried playing it on my older WD TV Live and it works fine, so they must have fixed the bug but didn't incorporate it into the firmware for the new gen WD TV Live.....fail.
The video/audio encode specs are below, if you want to replicate the problem, just visit the usual torrent sites and search for "men in black icebane" it's almost 3GB in size.
