I recently purchased the Sony Bravia 46V5100, and wow is all I can say. This is my first HD purchase anything, although I did much research for over a year, with pleasure, I chose this Sony. Quickly acquired the playstation 3 games and Blu-ray, HD cable with the company, and I’m blown. The image is not removed or something like that, at a huge NASCAR fan and there is no blur, no passes and never miss a bit of action and, of course, fastest sport on television. With all the HDMI inputs, I do not know what I can put there to do better, theres more than enough space for all accessories.

The screen is what makes the difference for me between this Sony and the Samsung equivalent. The screen is not as bright as the Samsung, but the bezel is as bright as the rest, barely noticed. The white glove delivery was great, I was informed of all stages of the journey of my TV, delivery guys have reviewed the operations of unloading and explains some of the features. The only problem was a “feature” that comes with television, which darkens the screen during dark scenes on a film or TV show, this problem has been corrected in a software update, which is on the website Sony assistance. very easy to fix,requiring only a USB memory device, or if people do not, you will receive a Sony.

The update takes a few minutes and a world of difference. I was a little nervous about buying a TV online, but I went out and checked at the best price, and is about $ 400 less than Amazon, at the best price, so my decision was made for me. Especially great tv, and a great price for the size of the TV. Thank you

I researched 46-inch LCD TV for the month, and each site recommended the Samsung LN46B550, so I bought it. I am not a technician, so I’ll say this: all the speakers on Samsung are at the bottom of the package, at least they know how to connect to a sound system, the sound of each show as if you were Inside you can with the lid closed. I sent back to me, and Sony, which is a big improvement, the speakers are on the front of the whole, they belong. The image is sharp and beautiful saturated colors, easy to navigate. It is a great TV. Unlike Samsung, which is incredibly bright and reflective, Sony even look in my living room. I love it!

This TV is great value. It sounds great (especially when connected to a Sony BluRay). Backlight with adjustable light sensor is an attractive option.

It has excellent image quality. Watch in standard definition channels better than a tube TV. View HD channels.

At a number of HDMI inputs and adequately to other connectivity.

The sound quality is excellent – you can always improve, but connecting a surround sound system.

You will not regret buying this Sony Bravia V-Series KDL-46V5100.

Ways To watch BBC iPlayer abroad?

It is perhaps the most asked query of expats, but the answer is an easy YES.

For people who live overseas, like me, there comes a time when you miss a bit of good old Brit television. Ever since the BBC launched iPlayer there was a little hope out there for watching BBC iplayer abroad. However if you have attempted to attach while abroad all you get is ‘Currently BBC iPlayer television programs are available to play in the United Kingdom only…’ How annoying!

So its now possible Watch BBC iPlayer abroad?

Of course it is possible, if you search through Google you will find heaps of options. A lot of them are either expensive or just do not work. I’ll list them all, so you can decide for on your own, but in the end there are just a couple of true options to watch BBC iPlayer abroad. That is methods which will always work.

What you need to Do

The BBC restricts access to its iPlayer service by checking the physical location of the Internet provider you are using to connect to the Net. If it’s based in the UK you will be able to view, if it isn’t then they block you from viewing. It is as simple as that!

All you require to watch BBC iPlayer abroad is make it seem like you are located in the United Kingdom.

No Cost techniques to watch BBC iPlayer Abroad

If you’ve got access to a PC back in the United Kingdom you can make a virtual private network tunnel back to that PC and connect to the iPlayer web site thru that PC, this can cause it to look like you are in the United Kingdom.

So How Well Does It Work?

Not well to be honest, there are a number of issues. Firstly you must have a PC on in the United Kingdom all of the time, and if there is any technical problems with that computer you are going to be stuck till you get back to fix it. Second, and more importantly, while your download speed in the United Kingdom could be good you will find the upload speed is far to slow to allow consistent TV viewing.

Any other free methods to watch BBC iPlayer abroad?

Well you can look at TOR or Foxyproxy which both offer a free proxy service, which like a VPN makes it seem like your PC is in the United Kingdom. However all free proxies are too slow to watch BBC iPlayer abroad, they just do not have enough speed for all the free users. They are also quite hard to setup, without help.

The Best Option to watch BBC iPlayer Abroad

Firstly should you pick substitute or VPN options, well the neatest thing is to have BOTH! The software I use is Identity Cloaker which gives you a premium high speed United Kingdom proxy and United Kingdom VPN option. This will enable you to view iPlayer live and download programs to view when you want.

The software wasn’t originally made for television viewing, it is just a byproduct of what it does. As such they do not even state this use on their website!

There is a ten day trial available for a few euros (the free version is of no use if you’d like to watch iplayer abroad {as it is too restrictive|ass it only works for certain sites, as it does not work for TV sites). After that the software costs less than seven euros a month, so it is reallly a bargain for those among us who need to watch iPlayer abroad!

Have a look…
