don't have a Sony but I once read saying only LG bluetooth work with LG TV. But since gotten a LG, I have plug in 2 wireless bluetooth headphone and they both work without a hitch.

so I presume you shouldn't worry too much and just go ahead and try.

Thank you for the info.

Probably it has something to do with your WIFI connection; it just needs a stable connection (mine registers 200-300 Mbps WIFI5@5G connection). I face no issue screen mirroring any content from Ipad mini 4 (running IpadOS 14.3) to Sony X9000H TV (with the latest firmware v6.0414). For example, I can watch a live game stream from Facebook Gaming for a long as I want over AirPlay. Other than that, I think there is a timeout if no AirPlay activity.

I think not update yet for x90h. But my wife use an ip11 wth latest firmware. N my line is unifi turbo 800. I try to update to latest version.

I also have played a 12gb ultra hd 10 bit video but it said video cant be played. I am using a sandisk thumbdrive. Is the usb port have low transfer rate or it is the thumbdrive? Have any tried with a hdd. Any problem?

Thank you. I try to search for plex device. The youtube 4k documentary like in ocean or forest scene is throughly breathtaking. I have seen other 4k lcd tv can do. But this tv is really good. Sound is average. But enough for me, as my ear not use to soundbar or m system.

We are not concerned about your Unifi package. We are only concerned about the WIFI connection capability and stability to connect all devices in your home network.

Remember, the Airplay is only capable of a maximum of 720p playback for screen mirroring mode in a 4:3 TV aspect ratio (for Ipad).

I found out about this when trying to screen mirror a media source at 1080p but the Ipad mini 4 cut the video stream and only allowed the audio (with a centered dialog box showing the audio icon only on the Ipad) to be screen mirrored to the TV.

But, if your stream media has the Apple AirPlay Cast icon shown, enabling the Cast icon will allow a full-screen TV ratio casting irrespective of source resolution; albeit with degraded cast quality on a 4K TV. So, I suspect there is still the same Airplay resolution limitation applied here.

About USB playback, X90H only supports the following codecs:

USB PLAYBACK CODECS:
MPEG1: MPEG1/MPEG2PS: MPEG2/MPEG2TS (HDV, AVCHD): MPEG2, AVC/MP4 (XAVC S): AVC, MPEG4, HEVC/AVI: Xvid, MotionJpeg/ASF (WMV): VC1/MOV: AVC, MPEG4, MotionJpeg/MKV: Xvid, AVC, MPEG4, VP8. HEVC/WEBM: VP8/3GPP: MPEG4, AVC/MP3/ASF (WMA)/LPCM/WAV/MP4AAC/FLAC/JPEG; WEBM: VP9/AC4/Ogg/AAC/ARW (Screen nail only)

About the AV1, the new video coding format for streaming media (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AV1; don't confuse it with AVI, the Audio Video Interleave):
No native AV1 codec support even though the custom MediaTek 5895 chip used in X90H is based on S900 SoC which the latter is able to support the AV1 codec at up to 8K@30Hz. I read somewhere that Sony didn't use the GPU in the chip to process images; it routes the image processing to its X1 HDR processor that is unrelated to codecs. If you play any AV1 video available on Youtube, the video stream will be running using the VP9 codec instead (open the Youtube Nerds mode option to see which codec used). I have verified that the AV1 codec is not reported in the AIDA64 system info app.

Note that the same chip may be used on all coming-soon Sony 2021 XR series TV models which will have Google TV support. Maybe, Sony will do something to support the AV1 codec with this chip.

The AV1 codec will be important since Google has recently announced that it requires AV1 support available on any TV device that wants to run Android 10 and beyond.

You need to connect your USB HDD to the faster USB 3.1 port (the blue-colored one) on X90H TV and make sure the HDD supports USB 3.x speed.

Good info. Thank you. The kdrama stream at lower reso of 720p. Probably they have like security to disable the stream. I try with android mirroring, see what happen.

X80h 65ā€ and X90H 55ā€ is about the same price. For this budget you would recommend going for X90H?

I think if you compare it side to side, you will see some differences. But once you bought it and bring it home and tune some setting up. It will be a good tv. Bigger is better.

Still dilemma between 75inch x80 & x90, diff 2k.

Even when buying an expensive tv, you still has a limited number of good 4k movies to showcast your tv. Netflix has few only 4k qualities, and fewer good ones. Even the 4k are decent qualities.

For me x90h, i like to use it for future console ps5 xbox etc . Because of the gimmick 120hz they advertise and the lower delay in gaming mode.

Now watching only good hd movies in netflix. Feel sad and nostaligic watching man tat n stephen chow.

VPN is a hit and miss type thing.

Today this server doesn't work, may be tomorrow can. You just have to try several. That is my experience.
