Can you add a VPN, if so where. I'm in Cyprus and bought decive in the UK. On returning to Cyprus I can't even get Sony Entertainment. Not happy.

I purchased this device from Amazon US, and enjoying it thoroughly. About the VPN, well like mike said , the best way to get info is to contact Sony technical assistance. and if like you say the sony logo is not showing up, that device may be faulty. talk to the sony customer service.

I don't think you can add it directly, but you may be able to find a router out there that can handle the VPN connection for you

Try customer service. I bought this as a gift for my dad. I remember it being pretty imtuitive on setting it up in the network settings. I say try contacting Sony or keep even ask google "how do I add my smp-n200 to a VPN".

Yes because like me you bought the UK version right or Asian. End you are trying to play it in the states. Which is a different format and the download content only works on the US version so they match up I bought all the downloads and can't use them either

I'm experiencing the same issue. I'd ordered a few Blu-Rays from Target, Amazon, etc. and none of them work. They're Region 1, and I set Blu-Ray to Region 1 on my laptop. Any advice from others would be welcome as I bought this laptop partially for the Blu-Ray. I wanna watch James Bond Blue-Rays!! WAAAAHHH!!!! :-(

Akumar, were you successful? I too have an Apex TV and a laptop PC I want to work together. I can't wait to cancel my cable subscription, and watch programs from the internet on my TV. Which cable did the trick. Any advice? -Audrey

Is there any information on when a Canadian version will be available and where? I'm definitely wanting to try this if it's in Canada.

Yes! PerfectlyThe only thing that may require extra attention is any Downloadable content or network playablility.Since it is a U.K. version, the buyer may have to create a second PSN Network profile under the U.K. network to access any of those extras.

I can tell that I play without any problem the US market Bluray media as well as some I have imported from Italy. Pay attention to a paper that is inside the box, with the instruction on how to activate the areas - click 1 for zone 1, 2 for zone 2 etc.

I contacted Sony customer support, here is the question and response: Model : bdp-s570 Question: When will you offer firmware that will allow more video file formats mkv, m4v, mp4, m2ts, etc... to be streamed over the network connection from a DLNA media server? At this point it plays very few file types. one of the main reasons I purchased this product was to stream video over my network. Thank You Response: Thank you for contacting Sony Support. I'm sorry, but there is no update available to support the additional file formats via DLNA. I've provided a link with the information on the file types that are supported when using the DLNA feature: http://www.kb.sony.com/selfservice/documentLink.do?externalId=C1017936 Thank you for your time.

Has anybody actually tried this on the 5960 to see whether it works? I'd like to hear some success stories before I try it. I plan to go to the UK next year. Are most of the DVD's sold in the UK PAL Region 2 or "All Regions" ? Several of the British Railway ones I've ordered are Pal and "All".

Shoko, am I correct that the Archos Media Club is in French and possibly has a UK version coming, but that there is no USA version? Brian, thanks for the mention of ArchosFans.com - I'll be sure to check it out.And if the FBI is looking in, I certainly wouldn't do anything illegal!
