Serviio

Hi allI am rather frustrated connecting a Sony BD to my Mac Pro to play BD via my computer. I have connected the player to the network and it says the connection is fine. If I install Serviio will I be able to access the payer via the network and my Mac?

thanks in advance!

I haven't used a BD player to access Serviio in many years. I do have a Sony BD player that's about eight years old, and I can't tell you the last time I actually turned it on. But I do know that Sony had been degrading the DLNA support. I had an older Sonly BD player that would bitstream both Dolby TrueHD and DTS Master Audio, but my current model will only bitstream one of them (TrueHD if I remember right) and required DTS/MA to only play the lossy DTS core tracks.

That said, I never had any issues with my Sony BD player connecting to and playing media from Serviio. I use Windows, not a Mac, but that should not make any difference.

Thanks Dan. I’ll give it a try.
