Hi,
Have just bought a HDR-FOX T2, and it seems good so far!

One thing I wondered: there are statements about its networking capabilities, but little in the manual. Is it possible to control the device from a laptop on the same network? I would be particularly interested in being able to use my laptop keyboard to e.g. search YouTube on the box, rather than the fiddly remote control.

I am currently using a WiFi dongle one the system, but could use Ethernet if that is necessary.

Thanks.

Welcome to the Forum

Not possible to use laptop keyboard in the manner you describe.

Thanks, Barry. That's probably saved me hours trying to work out how to do it! I just need to work out what the networking capabilities are now - the user manual is virtually silent on the subject. If you know of any other information on that subject, I'd be very grateful.
