Works well but missing embedded wireless interface August 23, 2010 Bruce D. Miller (Boston, MA) The DMXNV1 provides the standard Sony network interface directly on your Sony Bravia TV. It works as advertised; however, there are some areas that are less than optimal:
1. This interface requires either a direct Ethernet connection to your router or a wirelesss network/game extender for network interconnect. I had expected a built in wireless interface given the cost of the DMXNV1. I did purchase a wireless game extender and it all works well.
2. The DMXNV1 can attach to Sony televisions; however, it is not really an integrated play. The unit uses HDMI and USB cables to interconnect with the television and requires its own inteconnect to AC power. I had anticipated that the module would fit on the television and mechanically make the appropriate interconnects...it doesn't. I have mine set up free standing with the provided stand.
3. The set up provides audio through your Sony television and requires that you use your audio output on the television to provide interconnect to a home theater audio system. Again, this all works, but is less than elegant.
Overall, this interface allow you to get internet attach for your Bravia television. It is useful for internet direct services such as Netflix. It is a bit inelegant, but functions as described.
Works Great for Netflix January 29, 2010 M. D. McCord (Wisconsin, USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I read a lot of so-so to bad reviews of this. But I got one anyway because I found out it now supports Netflix. I could not be happier with it. I have not yet tried the Amazon "on demand" feature and most of the other features are worthless. But the Netflix steaming does everything I want it to. At $199 it's a huge rip off. Buy a Ruku for less. I got mine for just over $50. Hope this simple review helps.
Great device to give internet connectivity to Sony Bravia January 10, 2010 S. Moore Does what it is advertised to do. We have been amazed at the video quality and speed we have gotten from high def shows downloaded from Amazon and Netflix. I highly recommend this.
Nice Ideal, but missed the mark January 4, 2010 Newport Tom (At the Beach) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
What a great idea but the product has too many issues.
1. No real customer support. I had a Slacker Radio issue and Slacker said Sony had to help and Sony blamed Slacker. One month later I reach a support guy at Sony who helped me but this was 45 emails later with both Sony and Slacker.
2. Amazon content: I bought several videos with both cash and Sony Promo money and some of the movies just can no longer be played due to the movie producers control. So you buy a video one year and the next year, or month you can not see it, all without warning.
3. Netflix content. If you lke really old movies from the 30s and 40s them your are going to love it but new stuff, good luck.
I would get the Apple TV if it were 1080p, so if I were you I would wait until someone somewhere get this product idea right. Steve Jobs, are you reading this?
Save your time and money.
Constant Problems December 13, 2009 ljh (Smithfield, RI, US) I purchased this product in September and it has been down frequently. I had difficulty initially with the internet connection and when I called the Sony support line, I was told I needed a gaming adapter or something similar. I purchased the adapter and I had decent service for awhile. I don't really ask it to do much, just recall my amazon video library and netflix. It is down again and after hours on the phone with different support people they have determined that the unit isn't working properly and want me to return it. For my needs the Roku I have on my upstairs Sony is 100% better. It was easy to set up, the picture is great, and I use it wirelessly without problems.
