My HR20 currently has version 13d installed. I have always been able to connect to my PC's (1 windows XP with TVersity and 1 Vista). I can play .wma files no problem, but I cannot play MP3's. I can view pictures, but if the file is very large (6MP, or so) they have an X next to the title. it displays small files no problem. Am I missing something?

Try reading this thread - there are some good suggestions on settings in Tversity...

Which one is giving you the problems, TVersity or Vista? Is the Vista machine a ViiV? I can tell you that I had no problem playing back a large (43Mb) WMA file (Rush Limbaugh program) via the ViiV PC, but I haven't tried it with one of the XP machines (Mine run Twonky). I know that Twonky only did MP3, not WMA.

XP w/tversity. After changing the setting to XBOX, it worked fine.

I have not tried Vista lately (I have Vista on my laptop) I believe Vista played WMA I will Check tonight. After my Laptop disappears it never reappears until I reboot HR20 with my laptop turned on.

Does anyone find the menu for pictures and audio very user friendly? I think it should be a larger menu, but what do I know.

Even though the OP is running the cutting edge version...
The feature being asked about is not tied to the latest CE version.
