I think I download the app on my samsung droid which is like a sony remote control app. if you look at the last paragraph on page one of the following link (a review that i found on google) it talks about such a thing. i have used it only once or twice and did not try any actual keyboarding because i mostly use it to mirror my ipad. http://www.soundandvisionmag.com/article/test-report-sony-bravia-xbr-55hx929-3d-lcd-hdtv edit: added link i hope thats kosher on amazon

There are keyboards that work with iPad tablets and Samsung Galaxy Tab (mine is an 8.9) that can input both wireless and HDMI; plus there's a USB input. However, what solution are you looking for? I don't know if the Sony accepts changes in programming code through those input sources. davzway

Hello, I bought my Acer in the US, it has a qwerty keyboard, if you install the windows Spanish keyboard (by software) you will not get a one on one mapping of the keys with the spanish letter question-mark up-side-down is mapped on the + key. That will not be handy for you. And the ~n is mapped on the : key. I hope this helps you. Good luck in finding a nice laptop. Kind regards, Peter

it would work if you enabled HDMI control. :) that lets you use the Bravia Sync feature since it uses HDMI signals to allow you to navigate the XMB with the Receiver remote or a sony tv remote or any other device that does hdmi control.

I wish I could help you. It was not compatible with Vizio TV despite their description. I also have a sony tv (not bravia) and it is not working.

The nvidia control panel displays an option to setup the digital audio, but it is not available with my Sony Bravia; I'm not sure if it works but I think it is better to have a sound card.

Hi Beth, the only reason I can immagine is that you might have the keyboard in another language. My Zero key in Spanish gives me zero and = Does this help?

nope, keyboard is not bluetooth compatible, that is probably why most key combinations do not work

I have the same problem. It only worked for about 2 weeks and gives me trouble. I have tried all of the steps and they don't seem to work. I may try a replacement, and if that doesn't work will go back to Logitech which always works and has a bigger keyboard.

This unit did not work for me. From what I know, it works with most AT PS2 keyboards. Mine is a XT/AT PS2 keyboard. I found a unit that works so well that I forget I am using it. I have had 0 problems with it. I bought it from Hagstrom Electronics https://hagstromelectronics.com/products/modules.html

I no longer have the TV to test. I do have a new Sony 65" Ultra HD TV now. It has 3 USB inputs. I tried 3 different keyboards in each input port and each time I got a message "does not support this USB device." All of my keyboards are Apple. They are from 2001, 2003, & 2008. I use a bluetooth keyboard with AppleTV but cannot get the TV to recognize it. Going thru the on screen guide I found that under "other devices" it did list USB. The only thing it had under it was external storage with the image of a thumb drive. It spoke about pictures. Try surfing to the on screen guide and see if it gives you the same info.

I just bought a Sony Bravia r52 smart tv from a local warehouse store. There are 2 usb ports which you can plug in a mouse and keyboard to. You can get a wireless mouse and keyboard that have USB dongles.I cannot get them to work all of the tv interfaces. There is a web browser that I can use the mouse on, but the web browser is terrible - it doesn't support flash. the native youtube and other embedded apps from the web browser do NOT support a keyboard and mouse interface.Just do a web search on Sony bravia wireless keyboard and you'll find some links listing the same findings that I have found as well.

Has anyone tried hooking up a laptop? I tried it hooked up to the PC input on my Bravia TV and get NO (ok, very little) volume. It's been suggested that a setting on my laptop needs to be changed. I need to watch streaming video for work. Anyone have ideas?

I'm not sure how credible the source is since I was only able to find one source: http://bigdeal.com/auction/televisions/sony-bravia-ex500-40--lcd-tv 8ms pretty slow for a gamer. I'm pretty shocked that it's embarrassingly hard to find this information. It's not even on the official site. Ugh.

Not sure what options there are, but in the past, when I googled AlphaSmart I was directed to a source that was helpful. Mine is a qwerty keyboard

I must have missed this. Vizio sound bars are very common (Costco). The fact that Sony doesn't support it is a major oversight. I'll have to send mine back. Tried the learn code on the remote and it doesn't find a match. Vizio is listed on the TV, just not audio. Too bad.
