Hi QOkino,

Welcome to the community.

I'm just going to try to find some answers for you. In the meantime, maybe someone else in the community might have some ideas.

Thanks,

Pascale

Hi QOkino,

What's the exact model number of your TV? It should start with KD or KDL.

Why does it matter?

You can. But I don't recommend it. I only get stuttery video playback or no playback at all in Chrome on Android TV. Vewd is the best browser on Android TV for video playback I found so far.

But try yourself... Open the Google Play Store in a browser on the PC. Login with the same account as on your Android TV and search for Chrome. You can now check for compatible devices which should list your BRAVIA on which you can "remotely" install it from the PC now.

This one and it is awesome, customised to work as browser with TV remote.

Video playback didn't work very well when I tested it some weeks ago.
