Sky Go On Sony Bravia



Question

Open Zoom, rotate your phone into landscape and off you go. It's worth noting that whenever you are mirroring, your phone needs to stay on - what happens on your phone, happens on your TV. Hi All, this is my first post so hopefully get it about right. I have had a bit of a search around this topic but cant find an up to date answer. I have the full sky package and a sony HX803 internet tv. I wanted to get sky anytime plus to access hundreds of free films and programs rather than be.

Bravia

Sky Go is Sky UK's official app that brings all the content this channel as to offer to your Android device. With this app, you can enjoy your favorite shows anytime and anywhere, so long as you are within the UK (or using a VPN with a server in the UK) since this platform uses region restrictions.

I have a new SKY HD box and have been trying to connect to my Sony Bravia 32D-3000 via HDMI with no success. When I try to select from the source list, the HDMI device list is greyed out. I can connect using SCART, but this is not HD. Any suggestions?

Our Answer

Connecting a Sky+ HD box to an HD TV set via HDMI should just work. There’s normally no need to alter any settings.

If you’re unable to get your TV set to recognise the HDMI feed from the Sky box, here are a few things to try:

  • With the box connected to the TV, try switching the set-top box off and on again
  • Try switching the TV set off and on again with the Sky box connected
  • Try rebooting the Sky+ HD box (by removing the mains plug for 30 seconds)
  • Using a temporary SCART connection, make sure the Sky+ HD box output is set to one of the HD resolutions, 720 or 1080. You do this using Settings > Picture> HD Resolution
  • Try connecting to a different HDMI socket on the TV (if your TV has one)
  • Try connecting with a different HDMI lead (in case there is a problem with the lead)
  • Try connecting another HD device to the TV set (to confirm that the TV and lead are OK)

Still not working?

If you’re still having a problem, check your TV’s manual in case there’s some other step you need to take with that particular make/model to get HD working. Each TV is different, so you have may to go through the on-screen menu options and/or the manual to see if there is anything special needed for your TV set.

Other Suggestions

If you’re still having a problem, you need to determine whether the problem is with the Sky box, the HDMI lead, or the TV. You can do this by:
