Connect to Shared Network - Bravia

I have a Bravia KDL-42W706B. I have a USB with some media on it attached to my BT Home Hub. My Mac identifies this USB device under 'Shared Networks' and lets me view the content.

 

Please can someone advise how I can view this directly from my tv also?

 

Thanks!

Hi Benlevy,

 

Welcome to the community.

The file you want to view will have to be supported. You can find out more about this here.

 

Best wishes,

Ed

Hi Ed,

Thank you for the reply.

My current issue is that the tv doesn’t seem to find the USB that is connected to the router? I have ensured that the file type on the USB is supported.

My laptop for example can see the USB as a shared network but the TV doesn’t.

Thanks again,

Ben

Hi benlevy,

 

I've found the available Home network functions that your TV supports in this Guide: https://bit.ly/2UVirYy. However, since what you're looking to achieve is not the usual setup for the DLNA network, I would suggest that you contact the router manufacturer to get more information on displaying this content on your TV.

 

Thanks,
