What is Wi-Fi Direct and how to set up a BRAVIA TV to connect it to a Wi-Fi Direct capable device
Wi-Fi™ Direct is a feature that allows audio and video content to be played back wirelessly from a personal media player or mobile phone directly to a compatible BRAVIA® TV without the need for a home network connection.
Using a computer, wireless access point, or cable is not necessary. It is a great way to share movies, pictures, and music when friends and family come over using the big, beautiful BRAVIA television screen, instead of having everyone pass around or crowd around a smaller portable device.
