HELP! Connecting Sony Blu-Ray to BD-LIVE

leboof

Hi, thanks for looking...

Has anyone managed to connect a Sony Blu-Ray player (I have the BDP-S470) to BD-Live?

I'm doing this wired. Router lights indicate connected to internet. USB Drive in back usb socket and recognised. All diagnostic settings state ok on Blu-Ray and even say connected to internet.

As soon as I try to connect with a disc or even the Update Firmware option, it's just not having it. It's saying it's not connected. Sony's support site and manual are of no help.

Thanks for helping.

Have you been through the set up process in the main menu ?

My Sony Blu Ray connects via Wi fi. and i have to go through a whole process to make it connect up. also what size USB drive are you using?

Hi, thanks for the reply, pulling my hair out.

Yeah, done the whole setup process several times, and it's a 32gb Pen Drive.

I can't stretch to getting the Wireless Dongle I'm afraid.

Don't know then. If it is any comfort BD live is one of those things you use once or twice , then just get on with watching the actual film/ show.

Cheers trets77, I'll maybe have to give Sony a bell, you think that's the easy option, but as I work, their 9-5 call centre is pretty useless really.
