    Hi All,

    I have just recently bought a Sony Bravia KD65XE9005 and I want to watch movies from an external hard drive. My problem is that I have a MacBook pro and I cannot get the TV to see the HD when i use the MacBook to add movies/TV programs to it. I have tried a few different formats but nothing seems to work. I got it work for an older Sony Bravia TV i have but that doesn't have Android running, this new one does.

    Can anyone please tell me how I should format my HD to work with both the TV and the MacBook. TIA
