How to Setup a Sony Blue-Ray Disc/DVD Player

[@kentmagruder390]

It is 2024 and your video is still helping people like me. Many thx!

[@lisayoder5686]

Thank you for this! I know it may seem silly to young people, but us oldies (I'm an x-er), we need our hands held throughout new technology set up. I bought a new (refurbished) one for the first time this week, so I needed instructions that were made 8 years ago. I finally gave in to the post-dvd world, many years after most. 😃 Thank god for KZbin instruction videos

[@m.g.n4898]

Oh my gosh! You're video solved my problem in two minutes. I spent 20+ minutes on the phone with Sony and it was quite apparent that the telephone operator was NOT a technician. After telling her she was no help, I turned to KZbin and found you. Thanks so much for a great explanation.

[@wendy444]

Excellent ~ You were the only video that actually showed step-by-step instructions!!!

[@Revolver1981]

It's not rocket science lol.

[@Noah-td3pn]

@@Revolver1981fr thought the same thing lol she’s acting like hes a genius 😂

[@caroldiloretta749]

Thank you. I was ready to return the DVD player and then found this video. Everything is now up and running.

[@jimmbear3998]

Thanks for video I hadn’t used my Sony Blue Ray player in a couple years and for some reason I had it plugged into some weird outlet in the back of my TV instead of the HDMI 2 port and it wasn’t working. You reminded to use the HDMI 2 port so I unplugged it from the whatever port and plugged it into the HDMI 2 port and now it works great! 👍 Thanks!

[@louisemcintoshmcintosh6836]

within 2 minutes I knew exactly what I did wrong and was watching the movie i couldn't wait to see thank you!!

Thank you so much for this video. It was comprehensive, yet easy to follow. It helped me immensely.

[@brittwood792]

This was perfectly easy explained...great job. Thank you!

[@alanmcdougal]

THANKS GEO. Helped a lot. Got my 1st blu ray today and watched you before even reading the instructions! Cool and thanks again. Well made video you recorded. Will see you again for sure.

[@moxlos100]

You always connect home theater to HDMI ARC(Audio Return Channel) tv input so you have both video and sound via one HDMI cable.Connecting to other HDMI tv input you gonna need an additional cable (like fibre optic) to get sound back.

[@006daredevil]

Thanks alot it worked for me.

[@samp7003]

I can't get the audio on with my new Sony Blu-ray player. When I first set it up it worked. Now I can't get it on no matter what I try. What am I doing wrong? Getting ready to go nuts pretty soon!

[@tammywall9651]

Such a great step by step instruction video. I will be watching this again for installing my blue ray to my Samsung TV, and for future reference(s). Thank U so much!

[@JerryGDawg56]

This came in very handy. Saved me some time. Many thanks!

[@nothingness55]

ughh just got this as a gift but my TV is so old that it don't have anything but the audiovideo cable ports. it'll be a nice decoration

[@HowToWithGEO]

You can get HDMI to composit converters.

[@dominique2966]

The first 3 minutes is all I needed 👏🏾 Thanks!

[@xoxo77777]

this was the perfect laymen's setup guide, thanks!

[@TheOneill3914]

Have you used the digital coaxial audio out on this model? I just bought a projector and am trying to connect this model to it. The projector takes HDMI but is not compatible with Dolby 5.1 audio. I can switch the audio output to PCM, but Id rather have the Dolby 5.1 go to my stereo. I have the digital coaxial to 3.5mm hooked up to my stereo with the HDMI to the projector but the audio does not go to the stereo. Any idea why the digital coaxial cable does not take the audio when the Blu Ray is connected to the projector by HDMI?

[@reneetaylor55]

Thank you!! Very informative, step by step really helped. I just moved & don't have my cable hooked up. Big help!!!😄😄

[@sandzz1nce]

Now it's simple to hook it on tv with the HDMI, but I want the sound to come off from the theatre.... how do I connect the blueray's sound to the theatre ?

[@estusflask982]

connect bluray player to your receiver, not tv

[@jillkeith8768]

Thank you for this Video I am not tech savvy and wanted to watch Netflix on my blue ray and now I can

[@Butterfly082609]

I'm having issues trying to switch it from wired to wireless connection. There's no option for it in network settings!

[@coletrick8748]

I miss the old school DVD players that had the digital track number, counter and all the cool led display stuff and you didn’t even need the remote .

[@charleysturbos7320]

It should I see USB connections as well as screen mirroring for both DVD and google Chromecast and more.

[@charleysturbos7320]

Factory reset and try again. And unhook all the connections and retry them as well.

[@marykohler3655]

😂😂😂 I ADVISE you and trust me I have owned both DVD 📀 and Blu Ray for years You may not want to be so quick to throw out that DVD Player and trust me how much it pissed me off that my blue ray will not accept all of my DVDS so I keep both players on my tv since we are talking Sony here 😎

[@user-br9eb5dt3u]

I have a Sony Blu-ray 3D it has wireless LAN built Bluetooth and 4K UHD upscale how do I hook it up to my element television Smart TV

[@Playlist-sj3vx]

OK, it looks like a common problem with the wireless vs the wired and having it stuck on wired. I have the same issue with my Insignia TV - brand new mind you. So, can you explain how to switch it over to wireless? Or like the rest on this page, not answer the question?

[@mrflipperinvader7922]

what about programming the remote to the tv

[@Shonda-vj7qb]

Thank you so much for the clarity!

[@DavidSmith-eg5le]

I'm getting a Blu-ray player and I just simply want to watch DVDs on it is there a way I could just plug in and go

One Question that Coaxial cable from blu ray player could give sound to my soundbar?

[@jerrywright4349]

Sony DVD S3700 Wi-Fi works great! I am able to access included apps, like Amazon Prime and Netflix. But I am using it away from my home and want to access Spectrum/Charter cable through the Sony like I would with a Roku stick. Does anyone know if it is possible?

[@maurahoward5728]

Very informative! Thanks

[@akakiddo6566]

Thank you for your video, it was a big help

[@javtimestwo]

When I choose Wireless set up, I get an error message: USB Wireless LAN adapter cannot be found. Why is that? I have a Sony BDP S3100, which has the built in wireless. Can you share what I might be doing wrong?

[@bantawa5273]

Same problem me too

[@AP-wb8ql]

My tv is a RCA with Hdmi 1 and 2 but does not work with my new with a new sony BDPBX370 BM2 tried both hdmi it did not work in hdmi One but when put in hdmi 2 but the picture went pink and so did the picture with a Dvd in it. So what am I doing wrong

[@thenorgalofthehills5688]

I wanna setup a broadband connection to mine so I can access BD Live. Will it accept a broadband connection if I just use a bridge with an Ethernet cord?

[@sachagordon1242]

I did what you said it's saying physical connection established but cannot connect to external network contact your provider

[@valdusambrizzi4800]

I have the same blu ray player but I can't connect it it won't give me the option to connect to my wi fi

[@Sephiroso.]

You're a pretty cool dude GEO. Great job with the videos.

[@russellrenneberg6578]

I only want the player to play blu ray , dvds and music cds for I have a roku box for my apps so would I have to download the player to WiFi for it to work ?

[@charleysturbos7320]

Try it and find out. Sounds like you don't need wifi for DVD but just for the apps and other garbage.

[@victoriahorror4821]

Accidently got the old sony version of blue ray so we will have to go back and get. a different one.. this one does have netflix though hoping the Samsung will. I can't connect this one at all and it turned off my tv.

[@ryuken1580]

Hi how I play japanese blue ray movies on the player?Also what colour do I press.Many thanks

[@troyjennings4831]

okay so I first got it and I didn't press what I should have in the beginning for the wireless connection how do I go back to set up to that?

[@tgahret]

Same issue I am having now. Did you ever figure out how?

[@angelacannizzio8294]

I followed your steps exactly, but it wont show anything on the tv screen where it says No Signal. I set it up to my sons t.v. which was just taking out of the box today, so theres no cable hooked up to his room yet, but that shouldnt matter?? right..? I do have wifi, but it wont give me any options... The blu ray turns on, opens etc., & the t.v. inputs on hdmi2/bluray. Could it possiably be the HDMI cord im using? Thanx for the video, i know this should be fairly simple to do, so this is buming me out big time!

Hi! thanks for the vid. Can you connect it as a CD played with a cable from the digital out coaxial to a JBL speaker that has a mini plug in?

[@Pipsterz]

Hi Geo, I have only used my player a few times but now I only get a picture, no sound. I've checked the hdmi cable, updated the software, volume is up. Any ideas?

[@charleysturbos7320]

Reset to factory and try setup again.

[@lercmarie7309]

I followed along with the video and my dvd player still isn't showing up...

[@yescarycan]

Cool video i watched it all ,one thing tho. You might want to go back and delete the "e" from blue it's Blu - Ray.

Hi Geo! I'm hoping you or someone can help me figure out how to safely eject my usb stick from the Sony bdp s3700. I cannot figure out how to do it. I've googled it and didn't find an answer. Someone please help! I don't want to lose all the content on my USB.

[@MsSilviaIvette]

How do I download apps to mine? I'm not sure what I touched but they all have disappeared.

[@garygullikson6349]

I put a DVD in my new Sony player then turned it on, nothing appeared TV screen. Finally, in desperation, took DVD out and unit initialized with some inputs. Now I would like to get player remote fully integrated with TV so I can toggle between Cable TV and DVD, access player menus, etc. I did not connect Wifi via ethernet, my player has only ethernet cable input. Argggh! have to deal with cable, TV and player remotes.

[@JazmineMagallanes]

I'm trying to set mine on wireless but it just doesn't seem to give me an option to set it on wireless it has to be on wired how can I do that

With a new BDP-S1500 I had audio dropouts about once every hour, whether I played a DVD or watched Netflix. When I noticed a dropout I rewatched the video where the dropout was and there has never been a dropout on the second pass. I bought another unit of the same model and again I'm hearing audio dropouts. I've gotten the audio dropouts using three different HDMI cables including a new cable. Am I observing a defect in the BDP-S1500 player?

[@alberto0521]

Well done Sir.😎

Would this work with the PlayStation 4 HDMI cable? Thanks
