WDTV WDLXTV Problem.

Sorry if this is in the wrong place, if so please point me in the right direction.

Does anyone else have a problem with this firmware not recognising drives? Or recognising them but when you click to open it it says 'folder empty'?

I have an Icy Box IB-3221STU-B, with one 1tb drive in and one 500gb drive. I had previously been using the official 1.02.07 firmware as the firmwares released after that didn't detect it. So I upgraded to the WDLXTV (0.5.8.1 and the version before that) firmware and everything was fine, until I removed the drive from the icybox to connect to the pc because I wanted to put some new stuff on it. When I reconnected I kept getting 'folder is empty'. Yet if I unmounted the other drive (there's two in the icybox case) it would recognise it fine. After numerous switching on and off it detected both drives and all was fine again. But the same thing happens every time I put new stuff on the drive. And I have to spend a seemingly random amount of time turning both the icybox and the WDTV of and back on until it decided to recognise both drives.

It took that long yesterday that I gave up and downgraded back to official 1.02.07. Both drives recognised straight away.

Any help here is appreciated as I do love the extras using the WDLXTV brings, but it's pointless if I can't get my drives detected.

Posted this over in the WDTV forum too, but thought I'd see here if anyone has any idea.

Thanks.
