i'm making use of a 40 seven" Bravia on the foot of my mattress perfect now and it works like a attraction. I surely have an HD Lifecam sitting on perfect of it. only use a VGA or HDMI out and you will have no issues :).

I just received my new Sony TV but on the screen it does not show the TV guide for the day.

Only for each station and the time it comes on.. I want to know what is going on all day...

Does that explain it?

The FCC mandates the broadcasting of a minimum amount of information along with all digital broadcasts. This information is carried within a protocol known as Program and System Information Protocol (PSIP). PSIP has the ability to provide all the information necessary to generate an Electronic Programming Guide (EPG) within the Converter Box or HDTV. Sony's TV Guide does NOT require a subscription fee, phone line or Internet access for updates to the EPG. It simply receives this information from the digital broadcasts received by the TV (apparently while the TV is not in use). The communication is NOT 2 way. HDTVs do not include transmitters.



Additional Details: The minimum information includes the digital channel number, sub-channel number and station call letters. Full PSIP information in support of Electronic Program Guides(EPG) is voluntary and may not be supported in all areas nor will every broadcaster in a geographical area necessarily provide this information. I expect that those with SONY 2008 models V, W, Z, XBR6, XBR7 & XBR8 will be disappointed with the incomplete EPG information provided by your local broadcasters.
