    May I stream videos from Netflix on Bravia KD-65XF8596?

    To watch Netflix on your smart TV, you need to connect it to the internet and set up an account with Netflix. You can do this by going into the TV's settings or home screen and finding an option for connecting to the internet or by using an app that comes pre-installed on your smart TV. If you have a problem connecting to the internet or setting up an account with Netflix, check out the manufacturer's website for additional help.
