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.

    We got this SONY BRAVIA TV, the skype worked well for a while.

    Login to Skype....the login seems that will go through, then Skype does not connects and the TV is rebooted... Any explanation here?

    Hi All
    Sony are keen to investigate this issue, but have had no reports of it via their own customer services.
    If you have been experiencing this issue, please can you post a message here with the following information:
    - TV Model Name
    - TV Software Version
    You can find both of these by going to the HOME menu on your TV, and selecting the SETTINGS option, then CONTACT SONY. Your TV model and software version are displayed on screen.
    If you can also please provide details of how your TV is connected to the internet (wired, wireless, wirelss via a dongle)
    Finally, if you could describe the exact problems you are having, together with any information (e.g. error messages) that appear on screen.
    Many 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.

  • How do connect my sony bravia tv as a monitor screen for mac pro

    How do I connect my Sony Bravia tv as a monitor for my MacBook Pro? I have an hdmi lead with an adapter to the computer and get a picture of factory setting cosmos with some of the folders of my desktop going off the side of the tv screen.

    If you have the right cable, and have set the right input on your Sony, then you need to adjust one thing.  Go to System Preferences>Displays>Set Mirroring.  I think you've got it set to Extended desktop, which means the Sony is just a HUGE extension of your Mac OSX desktop.
    That should fix your issue.

  • Optical or analog cable for connecting Macbook 1,1 to Sony Bravia

    Hello
    I have found a mini-DVI to HDMI adapter (plus HDMI cable) to take the video  from a Macbook 1,1 (all white) to a Sony Bravia TV. Now I need to find the right cable to carry the audio from the Macbook to the Sony Bravia. The Macbook has an optical (digital) audio socket (output?) and the Sony Bravia has 3 HDMI ports and 5 apparent audio jack ports (no idea whether they are 2.5 or 3.5 mm and whether they are analogue or digital). Please could someone advise me which or what sort of audio cable I should buy.
    Here are the Mac specs.

    Many thanks for any and all help

    OK. So I now have the sound connection working. The 3.5mm jack from the audio cable goes  into the headphone socket, NOT the optical (digital) audio socket on the Macbook, and the red and white jacks go into the respective red and white sockets (surprise, surprise) on the back of the Sony Bravia. I select 'Comp" as the input audio source in the TV settings, and the audio from the computer is broadcast perfectly from the TV internal speakers.
    I am now waiting for delivery of the mini-DVI to HDMI adapter and have a question related to this.
    The TV settings offer options for external devices corresponding to the ports on the TV, which include HDMI and Comp. When I have both the mini-DVI to HDMI and the audio cables connected, should I still choose Comp, or should I switch to HDMI as the external device. Will the TV be able to pick up input from 2 external devices at the same time although only one can be selected?

  • Unsupported output signal for Sony Bravia KLV-32T550A

    I have a mac mini 2007 running 10.6.3. I am trying to connect to a sony bravia KLV-32T550A either through VGA or DVI. Both keep coming up with error message (unsupported output signal, adjust your pc signal)
    I have updated setting on the TV as per some forums I have read so am sure its not the TV.
    Now the TV says the native resolution is 1366 x 768 but there is no exact match in display settings. Could this be the problems.
    I have read that i can download switchresx and this should fix the problem.
    Can anyone shed any light on this it would be much appreciated>
    Thanks

    Definitely the second computer can be a big help. If you set up Screen Sharing between the two so that the mini's screen is shared over to the MacBook, you will be able to see the mini's screen on the MacBook even though the display connected to the mini is dark. And from the MacBook you will even be able to control the mini, so you can go into Displays Preferences on the mini and make alternate selections for resolution and, if necessary, refresh rate. Hopefully you will hit on a combination that will light up the mini's attached display.

  • Firmware for Sony Bravia. What?

    I was planning to buy a Sony Bravia LCD HDTV, 32" from Best Buy.  I was reading the reviews and a lot of owners are saying that I would need a Sony "firmware update for video/audio" that can be downloaded from Sony.  What exactly are they talking about?  I'm not too TV/computer literate, and downloading/ flashplayer firmware might not be something that I would want to tangle with.
    Thanks in advance  for information about this issue.

    Since alot of the new tvs have what were once computer components within them, such as mother boards, the component may be in need of updates in order for the tv to run properly. The manufacturers will create these updates in order to keep your tv running at its best. The updates are to keep your tvs operations running smoothly. There are also firmware updates for certain blu-ray disc players as well.
    The updating of the firmware on the tv can be fairly simple if you have a newer computer/laptop that has an easily accessible usb port. You would check the tv manufacturer's website for any firmware updates listed under your tv model number and if you were to find an update available download it onto a flash drive and connect the flash drive to the usb port on the tv. From there you would go through a few menus in order to get the update to load onto the tv.
    Manufacturer customer support can often walk you through applying the updates to the tv.
    Hope this answers your question.

  • What connector do I need for MacBookPro1,1 for a Sony Bravia KDL-32L5000?

    I'm a little confused on which display connector I need to hook up my Macbook Pro (MacBookPro1,1) to a Sony Bravia KDL-32L5000. (http://www.sonystyle.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=1055 1&storeId=10151&langId=-1&XID=O:kdl32l5000:dg_ggldf&productId=819855292166574629 4)
    can anyone help me?

    As you have a 1st gen MBPO, I'd go with a DVI to VGA converter, as per http://store.apple.com/us/product/M8754G/A
    If you want sound, you'll either want a 3.5mm stereo to RCA / Phono stereo lead also, similar to this:

  • Apple TV or Sony Wifi Dongle for Sony Bravia TV??

    Hi,
    I have just recently bought a Sony Bravia 40" TV.  To access the internet capabilities i need a Sony Wifi Dongle.
    I already have a Macbook Pro and 2 iPhones that are used within the house on the wireless network.  Was wondering if i should get the Sony Wifi Dongle or skip that and get Apple TV which is about the same price??
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks
    Andrew

    I have a similar set up.  However, before getting my ATV3, I had gotten a
    ZyXEL 300 Mbps Wireless N Access Point, Ethernet Client, Universal Repeater, and Range Extender (WAP3205) to use as a wireless Ethernet bridge to my TV.  It's about 1/2 the price of the ATV, but it is only a bridge--no subscription service, etc.
    Having said that, the ATV is amazing!  The only shortcoming is that it doesn't offer Hulu Plus service at this time.  The upside is that you will be able to access services through your iPhone and mirror them to your TV through your ATV--and you can get app on your iPhone.  (Lastly, you WILL eventually succumb and get the ATV.)
    Hope that helps your decision.
    (BTW, I did not hook the ZyXEL directly to my Sony Bravia, but to my Sony Blu-ray player.)

  • 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.
