Is this based off the Network Media Tank project?

This box seems perfect if not lack of the ethernetsupport.
Has anyone tried to connect a USB to ethernet adapter? Can this work? I mean a ethernet adapter that makes itself behave as MassStorage adapter. Is this even possible? Has anyone seen such?

Anyway here is specification link:

WD TV HD Media Player ( WDAVN00 )

And here is link to where to download latest GPL Code:

WD Support > Downloads > Home Entertainment > WD TV HD Media Player

This seems to be a hit, if only one would have native support for ISO, Blueray container and network. Maybe possible to add into GPL code? Even drivers for USB network cards?`

I am thrilled!!! :D

Did you have to format the pen drive in NTFS? (Because of the FAT32 4GB filesize limitation). If so, how? through windows? separate app?

I've formatted my friend external hard-drive for this WD Media Player and it works fine.
