DLNA Performance: However I am wondering if any of you have experience with other Sony products' DLNA performance?

The good news is that with recent updates, DLNA support is provided. The bad news is that is only supports DVD formatted mpeg2 files. To play other formats, you have to copy them to a USB memory stick and plug them into the USB port.

My Sony all-in-one is very fast and I have no more problems with WiFi than any other computer. There WAS a problem with Windows 8 and 8.1 but by resetting the WiFi adapter every time I rebooted I was able to work around that problem and now it appears Windows fixed the connection issue. I haven't had any internet connection problems in months.

yes but have to make sure your using the latest windows media player that supports dlna and have a router that supports dlna (this is the key to making it work).... you can also you air play as well... the remote that comes with it will not give the user a much visual control... you will not know what the device is actually doing.... i would download the sony app "media remote".... thats the easiest control method

I haven't used DNLA... as far as wireless sharing from home my PS3 connects to it wirelessly and will automatically change the input when turned on (kind of nice). My other devices had more trouble, wound up having to hard wire my Jambox (bluetooth) to the TV because I couldn't figure out how to wirelessly connect the two... same with my iPhone. User error? Possibly, but I'm not a schlub when it comes to technology and I made several varying set up attempts.

This is exactly what I am wondering, too, whether it be the Samsung or the Pioneer plasmas with DLNA. I hope someone here can report whether these sets can access media on uPnp NAS drives. That's where this interconnectivity really needs to go.

I am now in the same boat as the original poster. I ordered a Samsung LN52A650 that will arrive Monday. Hoping the DLNA will allow access to my Western Digital NAS, but not sure. Since it's back to work next week I'm not sure how soon I'll get to try the DLNA features. First priority wil be to get the TV set up and working for the BCS game Thursday. Go Gators!

Thanks a lot for the reply. Sounds like this player does everything I want. Now, if Amazon would get them in stock...

Hi, I actually have not noticed any performance degradation on my network, and love the product. The sound is incredible. I actually purchased two, and put them on both sides of my room. Additionally, I use one of the units as the speaker for my TV. I cannot recommend the Zeppelin Air enough.Steve

I am not sure about lossless. Sounds fantastic however. No detectable latency. See my other comments too. Low end was a problem they are working on. I am not sure they have fixed it yet. Without a sub, you'll probably not notice.

I like it very much. If you have any questions about it, just let me know. The do post firmware upgrades frequently. I had upgraded to the latest, but had to roll back as there was a bug in that update where it quit playing my protected wma files. I put an issue in their bug tracker and they said they'd resolve the issue soon. But I really haven't found the need to upgrade the firmware anyway.

Seems a bit slow compared to what I experience. I've found that using an SD card with a fast write speed (45mbps or higher) and turning off auto-image-review in the settings really helps to significantly speed up shot-to-shot time. I'd also recommend checking Sony's website for the latest firmware updates (can be found here: http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-home.pl?mdl=NEX6&template_id=1&region_id=1&tab=download#/downloadTab). Hope this helps!

I have no idea what a DLNA device is. We watch videos and music from Hulu, You Tube, Netflix etc. using our high speed wireless internet connection. Sorry I can't be more informative as I just got the TV a Christmas time and am still learning how to use it.

C. Ady is 100% correct. If you don't have anything else than the DLNA functions are serviceable. From a complete product. I purchased a 850 Samsung in part for the DLNA feature. Your better off getting a Slingbox.

Allan, Thanks for the input. Could you clarify which TV you bought?Did you try utilizing the DLNA to connect to a PC and play movies off the PC?What are your views on the quality of the TV's picture/sound/color...etc?

I have a LN46A750 and even though it says it DLNA compliant, it doesn't seem to work with all servers directly. I can confirm that it does work with the Samsung software and using TVersity, it does see the server and its contents, but it doesn't stream video. I haven't tried music or photos, but videos don't work. It's because of some strange HTTP header requirements that the TV is looking for and the TVersity doesn't send. I don't know if this extra header is part of the "DLNA standard" though.

I use my 3TB Seagate Central with a Plex Server. It supports DLNA. Tried Twonky before finding Plex.

I bought Samsung 52'' LCD with DLNA support and already have a NAS drive (DLink - D232) that supports UPnP. All my media is in the NAS device. I haven't received the TV yet or else would have tried myself, but does anyone know if DLNA supported devices (my TV in this case) can access media from UPnP supported servers (my NAS in this case)?
