Using Home Network Features
With this TV, you can enjoy contents stored in 
DLNA-compatible devices on the home 
network.
Devices that store and provide contents, such 
as photo/music/video files, are called

video files from the server via the network, 
and you can enjoy them on the TV even in 
other rooms.
To enjoy the home network, a DLNA-
compatible device (VAIO, Cyber-shot, etc.) is 
necessary as a server.
In addition, when you connect your TV to the 
Internet, you can enjoy displaying a 
photograph that shows its location on the map 
(page 26), or enjoy AppliCast while 
watching a TV programme (page 29).
