I think no because the SP not have IR technoligy

There are some applications you can install on Google Play Store.
You can search them up.

No the sp doesn't have that ability

[Q] When does the Sony Bravia Engine 2 work?

Searched online came out empty.
When does the engine2 work?? YouTube videos? Movies that I add to the phone?
Any pictures or videos that are viewed in the Sony Album app perhaps?
THanks!

It works when viewing pics on the album, watching movies with the standard video player. It also works on youtube and with some 3rd party video players that support hardware decoding, such as MX player
It also should be noted that when you unlock your bootloader, you also lose BE.

As stated before videos, pics and supported 3rd party players. you can notice the effect if you open one of the standard sony pics from the widget. it opens it up and then changes the color nocitebly

Stop "Throwing" to Blu Ray Player

Just got my XZ and was playing around in the album. I decided to have a look at the Throw menu option and was pleased to see an option for my Blu Ray Player. So I press it and it ends my viewing of Game of Thrones but then links perfectly via wifi
However, I can't disable this and each time I view something "Throwable" it again interrupts my Game of Thrones How can I stop this now? Short of restarting the phone, as I'm trying to run the battery down to then get a full charge.

Settings -> Xperia -> Throw settings
Perfect
Kinda off topic but, would it be possible to remove just some of the Sony software while keeping others? Or if I were to download a debloated rom, could I then put back some small items like this "Throwing" to Sony devices?
Or does the Sony suite all act together?
I know the media remote for Blu Rays is available in the market, but what of the other stuff?
Any feedback would be appreciated

Haha I happened to do this while my kids we're watching a blue ray, they wasn't impressed

Haha, we just have to press buttons...
Were we able to do this because our Blu Ray players are Sony? Or is it a standard like dlna?
Also, did you try mirroring your screen? Mine wouldn't connect. On the videos they showed pairing via nfc to a bravia remote, but I don't have a bravia tele so I was hoping to do it via the Blu Ray player.

You'd be amazed how much Sony is contributing to Android in terms of DLNA...
Even on the current android tablets, you can use them as a wifi keyboard to type in the Tv screen, etc
Not only tablets, you can download Sony Media Remote on any android device and use it to type I used it to YouTube stuff on my Blu Ray player on my old x10

[Q] PS3 DualShock 3 Controller

Greetings,
Thinking of buying a PS3 DS3 controller for gaming on my Xperia Z, viewing on my Samsung 42inch HDTV via MHL adaptor.
I have searched this forum and Google in general but cannot find an answer to my question.
Can anyone who has the DS3 set up with their Xperia Z tell me this..
As well as using the DS3 for gaming, can you also navigate the Android OS using the controller? Can you use it in non-game apps like YouTube, Play Store, Play Music etc?
Would be cool if I could :good:
Thanks
I had played it only for a while, just for fun and yes, I was completely able to navigate whole OS using DS3. I hadnt checked if it does work with youtube etc, Im guessing it does.

Thank you - exactly what I looked for

Is there any better app to control Infrared devices (Like TV/AC) Stuff?

Is there a better third party app to use the IR Remote on the device?
I'm using Sure app.
Try this one it's the best by far. supports every kind of device. Stock remote is very poor
