Sony Bravia S for Skype?

I am looking for a way to synch my Sony Bravia S TV to Skype.
I purchased one Sony Smart Blueray player, the sales person at Best Buy said would work, but Skype wasn't supported. Then purchased a Google TV (the box) after the sales person said it would "for sure" work.... and that didn't either.
Help! What options do I have to get Skype on my Sony Bravia S. ???
Sony BDP-S780 ($249) + Sony TV Cam ($149) ??? Anything cheaper???

I have started having this issue on my Samsung TV! This used to work perfectly fine and I have been using this for more than a year, and now (like a few days now) this has stopped working. The auto-logon when TV starts option is frozen and I am unable to set this.
Can you please help me know what I should do to have this working again?
THanks.

Cannot get free Skype on my new Sony Bravia

When I access Skype on my Sony Bravia all I get are the features which use credit. Am I doing something wrong or is it not possible to Skype from tv to a computer. Please help.

In order to use Skype on TV you will need to purchase a specific Sony TV camera.
The camera is designed specifically for TV along with a special microphone array.

RE: Failure to Connect on Sony Bravia TV

Hi all,
Anybody encountered any issues trying to log into Skype on a Sony Bravia TV? I have a NX720. Everything else is fine. Wifi set up, internet connection and internet TV, although alittle slow.
But when it comes to Skype, after plugging details. You see a message 'logging you in..' with the little blue bar moving from left to right. After about close to a minute, a message comes out but only at a split second, so u can't read it either and then it goes back to the main tv screen.
Be grateful for any help. Is it a Internet connection signal problem? Do I need a new router?
Thanks.

Hi,
It seems to be a general problem, see this thread also http://community.skype.com/t5/Skype-on-your-TV/Sony-BRAVIA-not-able-to-Login-to-Skype-quot-kicks-out...
Who can help in this? Is it a Skype or a Sony problem?

Sony BRAVIA Call failed error message

I'm trying to use Skype on a Sony BRAVIA TV and with the CMU-BR100 camera installed. I cannot make a video or telephone call to another skype user. I get call failed error message for both video and telephone. Do I need to buy Skype credits to be able to use Skype ??

Shorty wrote:
Can anyone experiencing the 'call failed' issue comment on whether the problem occurs 100% of the time, or is it always within the first 10 minutes after powering on the TV?
Sorry.... Maybe I'm a bit thick, but do you mean 1/ switch the TV on and try Skype after 10 minutes? Or 2/ Try Skype within the 10 minutes? I'm happy to help with research if I can, even though I don't even switch this TV on anymore!
My issue is constant. I.E. I turn the power off at the socket, wait at least 10 seconds, turn on, start the TV and make a Skype call. That works..... ONCE. If I try to call a second contact, it gives the "call failed" message, without even waiting for any type of connection, or pausing for any timeout. If anyone tries to contact me, they get a "busy" message.
To be honest, I've not tried leaving the TV on for a while before trying. If I've nothing better to do over the next few days, I'll try that. I'm not that interested in it anymore. In fact... I don't like to see that TV in my living room and don't even use it!
Skype on my phone works better, with better video and sound quality. That's where I'm at.....
Maybe I'm on a downer tonight...

Sony Bravia "There was a problem signing you in to...

Hi,
I have a new Sony Bravia TV (55": KDL55W800A) and just bought the Skype camera so I could use Skype (CMU-BR200).
When I try sign in I get the message "There was a problem signing you in to Skype. Please try again later." If I enter incorrect details it gives a standard "wrong username/password" so it knows these credentials are right.
It is the same with other skype accounts. I have done the usual steps of restarting the router, veriying the account works on other devices, checked the internet and other apps on the tv etc. I am at a loss.
Any advice?
Thanks

I agree with Laith, but I did the factory reset this morning (before reading the forum), and this also did the trick. Far from ideal, and pretty irritating that this should be necessary... but for now, it has worked. We'll see if I'm still able to logon later (especially as I've now logged into my account from this laptop to post a comment on the forum!). Will update either way.

Mounting Sony Bravia 46" TV

I'm trying to wall mount my Sony Bravia TV and found that the mounting holes on the TV are not verticle. They are at a slight angle which will cause the hangers to not lie flat on the hanging bracket. Does this mean I have to buy mounting bracket specifically designed for my Sony TV?

My Sony KDL42W805A did exactly the same - Skype worked early last week, then would not connect. The Sony website - http://www.sony-europe.com/support/en/content/cnt-hn/prd-tvhc/skype-disabled-on-some-tvs/KDL-42W805A - has details of the models affected.
However, my TV updated itself this morning and Skype now works again, once I had logged back in. If your TV has not updated, connect it to the internet, go to settings > product support > software update and, with luck, you should be able to use Skype again.

Sony Bravia XBR-55HX929 internet TV looses wi-fi n...

I have a Sony Bravia XBR-55HX929 internet TV. Experiencing home network connectivity issues only when using Skype. Skype video calls end 2 to 3 minutes into the call with network connectivity error. Network is fine. When this happens it hangs up all tv network connectivity and none of the tv features work including network troubleshooting. It fails due to loss of network connectivity. To correct the problem, the tv must be powered off and back on to re-establish network connectivity. Looking for solution.

I have a similar issue with a samsung smart TV, where the single strength is so low it ends the call after 20 ish seconds. The mobile to mobile works on same network. TV is connected via Ethernet cable. Any ideas?

Macbook to Sony Bravia - Problems

Hey -
So I'm trying to connect my Macbook (I got this back in like 2006-2007?) to my Sony Bravia TV. I have the current set-up:
VGA Cable connected from the back of the TV to a Mini-DVI-to-VGA connector to the MacBook. When I plug it in, the Macbook detects it (since I can see the MacBook screen adjusting to it) but when I go to find it on the TV (Input/Source), the "PC" option is grayed out. I've been trying everything (Detect Display, etc) for the Bravia to detect it but no dice. Any help would be great.
For the time being, I'm using a S-Video to Mini-DVI-to-S-Video adapter to the MacBook but the quality is really poor (except when watching movies).
Is there something else that I need to do?
Thanks!
Albert

hello, people.
I'm trying to sync my mac to Sony Bravia as well.
And it was tough.
But on my last try I find a way.
You have to put a resolution 640 x 480 on your mac
and 1920 x 1080 on Sony TV.
After that, you have to go on menu of your TV and follow the steps:
ajustes > canais de entrada > controle de entradas
I know the names in portuguese.
But in english should be the same.
And set you PC from AUTO to "SEMPRE"
The TV is already set on AUTO (automatic)
It works and I really happy.
I wish it works for you too
Good luck

Cannot Connect Imac 24" via mini dvi to HDMi adapter cable to Sony Bravia 3

Hello Everyone,
I'm having the worst time in trying to connect the following:
1. Imac 24" 3.06 dual with dvi connection
2. Mini dvi to HDMI adapter (this mac with this connection was produced only for a short while!).
3. 10' (foor) HDMI wire
3. Sony Bravia 32" model KDL32L-5000 with 3 HDML connections
i.When I wire everything up, I keep getting"no signal" on my Sony Bravia TV.
ii. It doesn't matter whether I connect the HDMI wire to HDMI 1,2, or 3 on my Sony
iii. On my Imac Hard Drive>>Applications>>System Preferences>>Displays
all I get is a list of different resolutions. There is no mention or mirrors etc.
Nothing happens when I press "Gather Windows" or Detect Displays"
Can someone out there please help!!!!!
Can you also give any solution in very simple and small detailed steps!
Thanks,
Stacey Bindman

Majortrout, there is a major disconnect going on here.
1. You are showing an Ebay link with a mini-DVI to HDMI adapter.
2. You report that you have an Early '09 24" iMac.
3. That iMac does not have a mini-DVI port. That iMac has a mini-DispayPort.
4. You need a mini-DisplayPort to HDMI adapter.
It is physically impossible to attach the adapter to which you link at Ebay to your iMac. So you need to take a step back and figure out what you really have; which iMac, which adapter, etc.

How to connect a Sony Bravia TV to the internet through your Airport network

Since it took me a lot of time to figure out how to connect my Sony Bravia TV to the internet through my Airport network, I better share how to do it. Hopefully saving others a lot of time.
My 32EX600 Sony Bravia TV is Ethernet connected to my Mac Mini, which is part of my Airport network, together with another Mac, an Airport Extreme Base Station and an ADSL modem/router. Moreover, the Mac Mini is connected to the TV by HDMI.
Whatever I tried in the TV’s Wired Network Set-up (Auto, or Manual with manual IP, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway and DNS IPs), I couldn’t get it right. Cable Connection and Local Access were mostly OK, Internet Access always Failed.
The solution lies in the Sharing panel of the System Preferences of the Mac Mini. In the Internet Sharing item of that panel, you should choose to “share your internet connection from WiFi to computers (the TV in this case) using Ethernet“, and NOT (as I had chosen before and seemed so obvious) “share your internet connection from Airport to computers using Ethernet“. After that change, the Bravia Network Set-up, using the Wired and Auto options, flawlessly connected to the internet. No expensive (Sony) WiFi USB dongle needed.

I have now had a detailed reply from Sony Europe and the way to do this is to:
1.       Press Home on the TV Setup
2.       Use the right and left arrow to select Setting.
3.       Use the up and down to select Network, press Enter.
4.       Select Network Setup.
5.       Select Wireless setup.
6.       Select Scan
7.       Select your network
8.       A new screen will appear asking for entering the security key.
9.       Enter your WPA2 key.
10.   Select Enter.
11.   It will take you back to the same screen asking for entering the
security key.
12.   Press the right arrow.
13.   Select Auto.
14.   Press the right arrow.
15.   Select Save and connect.
These instructions are not the same as shown on the TV but they worked fine for me so they may help others with a similar problem.
