there you go, good for you! please guys, remember to also use some google and wikipedia research. we are not paid by Sony (or any other device manufacturer) to do their support but we're glad to help out if somebody really is stuck.

Do anybody have any experience with Sony KDL43w805C or similar (non 4k)? I believe it’s using the ARMv7 processor.
Will Kodi work on these TV’s, without stuttering issues?

Thanks for the feedback. I'm looking to minimize the amounts of devices I have near my TV, including my htpc, and would love if the TV could replace the htpc and handle all my future usage of KODI.
Do you guys think the 24p issue would be a problem, or annoyance, considering the TV (with KODI installed) should replace the HTPC?

Hello,
On my KDL-50W805C is very dificult to play 3D movie. Application Movies from sony is too easy, it supports just few formats. When I trying to play 3D film in KODI, TV doesn't know that picture is in 3D. For example in YouTube or Movies app I can press "action menu" on remote, chose 3D options and activate it. When I am in KODI, in action menu isn't any 3D option so I can't switch picture to 3D.
Have anyone similar experience or I am wrong?
Thank you for help

Thought I'd chime in here;
I have the KDL-55W800C and it works brilliantly (for my needs). Installed Kodi from the play store. Content is mainly 720p/1080p mkv's and mp4's with a mixture of audio formats. I don't utilize 3D, so I can't comment on that. What I'm truly impressed by is the wireless performance, it's stellar. I hate wireless generally, but I haven't bothered to plug in ethernet.
Every setup is gonna need some tweaks, this is by far the best OOTB start I've dealt with.
Overall, I'm very impressed.

Just a quick question regarding KODI/Sony/Android. How about HEVC encoded files?
Does the TV have enough CPU to play back 720p HEVC or even 1080p HEVC, or is Kodi able to use hardware acceleration?
Sincerely
Mikkel
