Guys

Let me try and explain for example the apps VLC is downloaded and stored on the external Usb drive, also I want to put it on the favourite menu, no problem all works great untill I goto stand by, next time I put the TV on they have gone off the favourite menu, so I have to put them back on. Why wont they stay on the favourite menu.

Have you tested another USB stick? Also, have you tried to remove the USB stick before turning off the TV and plugging it back after powering on, does the issue remain?

Sorry for the delay in writing back to you

Well, I now think the drive has gone down. It was a brand new 320Gb, I have done what you said and there is no differance other than the drive does not show any contents on it.

I am going to test this out on a pc, I know I will loose all the programs but I can reload them. I am sure its a dud drive

THanks for yourhelp Peter

I have the same problem on my XH9505.
And that when to start them, they are opened for immediate closure, all apps apply to the extra memory.

Hey, does it happen after deep standby (overnight)? Or even if you turn it off and then on right away?

On my new drive, it work great, no problems. works with cold start after complete power down. When you first access the drive say in the morning it take a few seconds to fire up but it good

My first drive was faulty, but new one great

@Lassesu Are you able to try a new hard drive as well?

I plug in a hard drive full of movies and pictures. It works well.

But you do not get Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD MA, DTS: X Master Audio. Sony has blocked the possibility from all apps to send out via e-arc.

Hey Lassesu, have you tried to remove the USB stick before turning off the TV and plugging it back after powering on, had it make any difference?

Hi Lassesu,

Let me know if this works on another HDD. It might be related to it i am guessing.

Cheers,

Have tried with two different hard drives and through network sharing. Equal to everything.
Someone who can test share a file with the different audio formats and see if it works for you but Sony TV.
