I never use it, and if I did it wouldn’t bother me much.

no offence, but just cuz u dont use a major feature doesn’t mean that it odesnt count as a con…

forwarding is really important and WDtv does a poor job at it.

It may seem like a con, but I don’t use it because I don’t need to. I use the feature they included to continue where you left off. Removes the need for any fast-forwarding.

I can rip a dvd into one large VOB file with DVD shrink. I assume the WDTV will play this. My question is, will it rewind, and fast forward a VOB file? I can’t seem to find this info anywhere. BTW, no need to convert to ISO for one large VOB file. DVDShrink – Edit – Preferences – output files tab – uncheck “split vob files into 1gb size chunks”. Then run DVDShrink, this will give you multiple files, and one large VOB file being the movie. (and only the movie)

You can yes, and it should ff/rr on them. However, Your best bet is to actually convert the files back into a .ISO. I don’t really see a point in converting the entire DVD into one huge VOB when the main movie of a DVD will play fine. If its a TV series, this may be your only choice I guess.

Hey…at wired network speed does it stream like a 720p MKV perfectly??? Like in full honesty?

The video I used in the review was 720p, streaming off my wired network. I’ve streamed a full 1080 (40gb) file off my network and I didn’t even notice any problems, It played like any other video.
