Sony updates Bravia TVs firmware

From High Definition YouTube to Twitter Ticker, the evolution of BRAVIA TVs brings even more entertainment to your home: watch YouTube in High Definition and enjoy Facebook videos and photos in full screen, stay in the loop – Twitter Ticker shows rolling updates of the latest tweets while you're watching TV and share your TrackID song search results straight to Twitter.

Watching the latest Internet sensation on a smartphone or laptop simply doesn't come close to the big screen experience. Now with the latest firmware update you can enjoy High Definition videos from YouTube in HD quality on Bravia TVs. From sports clips to music videos, YouTube has never looked better.
Expanding your social network will take on a whole new meaning too with Sony's new firmware update. Log in to your Facebook account and view shared photos and videos in full screen on your TV – so friends and family appear larger than life. Follow any URL links posted by your friends direct from your TV screen, as well as updating your status, sending messages and more.

Another feature new to Bravia TVs is Twitter Ticker. Follow a real-time Twitter newsfeed scrolling along the bottom of the screen and keep tabs on your favourite tweets without missing a moment of your favourite TV show. You can share Track ID results straight to Twitter quickly and easily too. Heard a song you like on an advert? Just hit Track ID on your remote to find the title and artist, then pass on the results to friends and followers on Twitter at the touch of a button. You can already use your smartphone or Vaio keyboard to control your TV and surf the web – and now you can use other Windows 7 equipped laptops too. From typing a web address to searching for information about the latest movies, it makes entering text on-screen even easier than using the TV remote.

The easiest way to stay up-to-date is to connect your TV to the Internet, either with a cable or through a wireless network. Whenever you switch on your Bravia, you'll be automatically notified of any available firmware updates. Firmware updates are also available from the Sony Support website and can be transferred to Bravia TVs using a USB memory storage device. This firmware update is only available on FY11 models.
