can this be used with BOSE Optical and convert to HDMI so I can watch/hear Netflix?

I'm not familiar with Bose Optical but if that is optical fiber audio, yes. It will route the optical audio to HDMI audio. The video would have to originate from component video(Red,Blue,Green).

Yes you can but the software is so slow its not even worth it. It takes about 4min to connect to netflix and thats with a broadband connection running at 18mbs. I really only use it to watch 3d blu rays cause I can adjust the depth of the picture(which I am unable to do on my newer lg 3d blu ray player).if you really just want a device to stream on thats cheap I would suggest the matricom gbox midnight it comes without instructions but there are a ton of youtube videos on how to load addons to learn from. I actually ditched my cable after buying one and get 3 times more programs without comercials for a third what I was paying for cable. I think its well worth looking in to but thats just me.

No, you cannot in the way you probably mean. You could watch movies on Netflix or other apps on the smart tv but not from a blu ray disc and you wouldn't need this player. Relatively rare and expensive products can transmit hdmi signals wirelessly, but it cannot be done over standard WiFi. There is far too much data after it has been decompressed by the blu ray player.Why do you want to do this? A low profile active hdmi cable may be the best solution for you. This is one of the smaller players out there so maybe you can find a spot near the tv and use a small hdmi cable.

You need a receiver, which allows you to stream television, netflix (either through a Wii U Or Blue Ray Player). I don't recommend any Sony devices because it does not work well with HDMI and therefore slow to communicate. Most of the time we use the WIi U through receiver to stream Netflix. We used to stream Dish through the receiver but it was getting too costly. Thus, you need a receiver to use this Epson.

I am not sure about Netflix. Our sole purpose for this projector is for movies and xbox. It does both very well. We did have to buy an HDMI adaptor cable to connect it to the dvd player.

I don't think you can. My advice is to take it back (send it back) get a sony blu ray player and get a newer tv. :) You probably will not be happy with this unit if you use Netflix. I'm not.

Yes,it can work with Windows 8, and if you use Netflix app, the sound will go through your TV Soundbar via HDMI

You would have to purchase a sound bar or similar product and connect them using the digital audio out on the back of the TV using a fiber optic cord. The Bose Cinemate series 2 would be a good example. I have the Bose solo. It sounds just as good and it only 3 or 400 bucks.

I bought it to use with a Roku streamer connected to a 10 year old TV projector in my theater that did not have an HDMI input, but first tried it on another tv that was connected to an Apple TV. It worked for both, and equally important, it did not affect the ability of either to stream subtitles for Netflix movies.

Yes. FYI video does not work with it. I would love to plug in my iPad and watch netflix, but it doesn't happen.

Yes, provided the cable box has a 3.5mm output. To use the RCA output connections (red/white) you would need an adapter. In either case, more than likely you would need to turn the dial, rather than use the remote to adjust volume.There is a bit more fullness compared to thin TV's sound, but not enough, in my option, to warrant the high Bose price. That is my biggest beef with this product--high price for little benefit.Good Luck

No; however, look for same style that has Optical "Out" and RCA "In". That way you can plug the RCA cables from your Bose Surround Sound system into the input side of the device and use the optical cable to move the sound to your TV.

This is not a SmartTV, just a simple but effective HDTV. You will need a Netflix ready device to use Netflix with this TV

Yes you can but the speakers are not very loud. You will need headphones. I bought a stand that has speakers for the tablet and watch Netflix regularly.

I use a Roku on mine for Amazon/Netflix... It connects into one of the HDMI ports. Works great!

Does not freeze for me when watching Netflix. Does not have HDMI cable out capability

you could get a $10 ish converter box to take the optical to rca digital, I've had to do that for my audio receiver as it came with more rca digital, than optical, and HDMI was yet to include audio pass through at the time.
