It is clear that the designer just did not care. The backside of the TV on the other hand is not elegant at all. Below is a white power LED that can be turned off in the menus if you prefer. Last year, the Sony logo was found on bottom bar, but on this year’s W8 the logo is integrated into the actual TV frame. The bezel around the LCD panel is very slim, except for bottom section that hides speakers. The stand is a thin, metal bar that gives the TV a light and elegant look.

Sony W8 exists in four variants called W805B, W815B, W828B, W829B. Sony has started focusing more on high-end TVs with incredible 4K resolution, but have they forgot about the mid-range segment? We hope not and here we take a closer look at the affordable W8 TV from Sony. In 2014, a mid-range Sony TV also features Smart TV features and a slim-frame design.

This W8 is one of them and it is a mid-range TV with Full HD resolution. Sony had decided leave most models unchanged and instead include a "b" at the end of the model name to indicate a 2014 model. Sony has released a new line-up of 2014 TVs and if you were looking for TVs last year you might recognize the "W8".

Right now, this is a pretty expensive option.Our first impressions - Test tools - Functionality - Power consumption - Calibration - Picture quality - PC & Media Center - Viewing angles - Sound - Conclusion - Debate In another year or two, it will probably be cost-sane (around a hundred bucks per TV) to buy dedicated boxes that get Slingbox video from your LAN and output it to a TV's component video or HDMI inputs.

Put the Slingbox at the satellite tuner, run the software viewer on your PC, and watch TV. If you can deal with throwing down a few hundred bucks, your easiest option is probably a Slingbox. Thanks to Hollywood, you can probably forget about seeing any mainstream consumer-grade products in America anytime soon. Unofficially, I've seen some from China that are about $100-200. Officially, these don't exist in cheap form. At the computer end, you'll need a component video capture card. I suspect it involves a single-chip FM modulator and tuner at opposite ends). With a single cat5 cable, you can cheaply send SPDIF, or spend more for analog stereo (I'm not entirely sure how they send analog stereo over a single twisted pair, since the other 3 pairs are taken for Y, Pb, and Pr. The next step up involves a cat5 cable and component video balun. If you're planning to watch TV in a small window, the only real downside of this approach is the fact that the 640x360 16:9 letterboxed video will also be interlaced.
As a practical matter, a HD satellite box outputs DVD-quality s-video. This will probably cost about $50, but will give you MUCH better video quality than the modulator will. Taking a step up, but still non-HD, if you have a spare cat5 cable running between the rooms, you could get a s-video + analog stereo audio balun.

Assuming you have a 75-ohm coax cable already running between the rooms, you'll basically be looking at a $15-25 video modulator, plus any run of the mill video capture solution at the PC end. Ugly, non-HD, and just about the worst possible way to get TV from the box to the PC. none of which are particularly good.Īt the cheap end of the spectrum, you could get a NTSC video modulator. If you have a Dish STB in one room, and want to watch TV from it on your PC, you have very few options. (assumption: the STB and PC are in different rooms, and you're trying to solve both the problem of getting the STB's output from one end of the house to the other, and getting it into your PC for viewing/capture once it's there)
