Cannot connect to Blu-Ray
I am having no luck trying to connect my Dell Venue 8 Pro (Windows 8.1) to my Sony BDP-S580 Blu-Ray player. I am trying to play videos from my tablet. I was able to connect my Acer laptop (also on Windows 8.1) but am having no luck with the laptop. Step 1 of the Sony manual says: "Prepare for using DLNA. Connect the player to a network. Prepare the other necessary DLNAcompatible products. Refer to the instruction manual supplied with the product." I cannot find any "instructions" to connect the tablet via DNLA. I tried using devices in Charms but that only shows "Desktop" under Play. Under PC Settings, the Blu-Ray shows up as an unsupported device and I cannot play anything on it. Anyone else dealt with this???

What program did you use to connect to the BluRay player on your laptop?
