I cannot view puchased full owned WMV Media (VOD) on the EVA 8000.

Even after I full scan my PC, the WMV file will not show on the list of videos.

 I guess the encryption of the file that allows it to play on the WMP 11.0 is not active on the EVA 8000, or else it is because the files are too big.

 Is there a work around?

Thanks again for answering me. 

If I use the bittorent option as shown do other people have access to the movie I purchased for my personal use? 

Am I liable to breach of copyright if someone else views the movie?

It doesn't matter where you purchase it from, you just need to setup WMP11 and the EVA8000 as explained in the article. Once you have it setup correctly (i.e adding the WMP11 share with the ":" in it so it's included in the scan and playing it once on the WMP11 machine to authorize the license for playback), it will show up when you browse for it. It will not show up if you browse by folder though.

As far as buying from BitTorrent, once you buy it only you have access to your copy (you download the file and when you go to play it the first time, you need to authorize it by putting in your usernameand password from your BitTorrent account). I have 2 movies I purchased from them and I am allowed to view them on up to 2 machines.
