Sony Blue Ray Player Upscaling
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hopeful that DVD player would work better than our older Sony. Unfortunately, we have an LG TV. This Sony does not communicate to our TV. Could not get it to upscale. Researched a patch or fix but impossible t get it to work for us. Guess we need to buy the same brand as our TV. Buy this if you have a SONY TV.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
Posted .Thank you for sharing your feedback, DeanneP.
We are truly sorry to hear about the frustration you've experienced getting your BDP-S1700U to communicate with your LG TV. We want to assure you that Sony Blu-ray players are designed to be compatible with all major TV brands via HDMI, and you definitely shouldn't need to match brands to get a premium experience or high-quality upscaling.
The issues with communication and upscaling are often related to the HDMI CEC settings or the HDMI cable itself. Ensuring both SimpLink on your TV and "Control for HDMI" on your Sony player are turned on can often resolve these handshake issues. Additionally, the upscaling happens automatically when the player is connected to a high-speed HDMI port.
We would love to help you get this working so you don't have to go through the hassle of a return. Please reach out to our support specialists at https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=bd so we can walk you through the specific settings for your setup.
We appreciate your patience and hope we can get your movies looking great!
Best regards,
Gus, Sony Social Media Team
