Problem using WiFi Direct & Mirroring with Macbook Air on KDL-32W653A

[johnw636]

I'm trying to connect my Macbook Air to a KDL-32W653A TV with WiFi Direct, and although I can connect, I can't get anything to play or Mirroring to work. The TV can see the laptop but is saying 'unverified device' or something like that. I think I need to download some software for the Mac to get this to work? Can anyone tell me what/where? Thanks.

I'm having another go with this!  Has anyone had issues streaming video from their Mac laptop?

See my post - can you help?

Maybe Mac users aren't welcome on the Sony forums....!

Hi there

I dont know anything about Macs (and never bothered to use Wifi-direct - too fiddly) to be honest, But as an alternative, Sony have released some software called Homestream, Which will work on Macs.  See link for further details.

Hope that helps.

Hi Quinnicus

Thanks. I've downloaded Homestream and will post again to say how I get on.
