Screen mirroring on your Sony TV allows you to display the content from your smartphone, tablet, or computer directly onto your larger TV screen. The method you use typically depends on the type of Sony TV you have.
Simple Steps to Screen Mirror
Here are the steps to screen mirror on your Sony TV, based on the model type, as described in the provided information:
For Sony Android TV™ Models
If your Sony TV runs the Android TV operating system, the process is initiated through the Apps menu.
- On the supplied remote control, press the HOME button.
- Under Apps, select Screen Mirroring.
- Follow the on-screen directions to complete the setup.
This method uses the built-in Screen Mirroring feature found within the Android TV interface.
For Other Sony TV Models
For Sony TV models that are not Android TVs, you typically access the Screen Mirroring function through the input selection menu.
- On the supplied remote control, press the INPUT button.
- Select Screen Mirroring from the list of input options.
This action switches the TV to a standby mode, ready to receive a screen mirroring connection from a compatible device.
Quick Reference Guide
Here's a summary based on the TV type:
| TV Type | Initial Remote Button | Next Step |
|---|---|---|
| Android TV | HOME | Navigate to Apps > Screen Mirroring |
| Other TV Models | INPUT | Select Screen Mirroring |
Once you have followed the appropriate steps on your TV, you will then need to initiate the screen mirroring connection from your external device (e.g., smartphone, tablet) using its built-in casting or screen mirroring feature. The specific name of this feature varies by device brand and operating system (e.g., Miracast, Smart View, Cast Screen, etc.).
It's important to ensure both your TV and the device you wish to mirror are connected to the same Wi-Fi network for the connection to work correctly.
