    Thank you so much. As others have said, you are the only one who has actually explained in a simple way how to do this. I am a seventy three year old grandma, but following your step by step instructions, it worked for me. Many thanks!

    You are the man! I created a video highlighting my mom's service as a WASP in WWII that I promised would run on a TV monitor that I'm donating to the WASP museum. Thanks to you, my end to end test with almost all the final equipment was successful very early this morning. Going to put a notation for Playback Assistance by Komos Tech in the credits at the end of the video. Thanks.

    I'd like to add that USB playback supports usually work with the current smart tv's but you should also check the codecs that the tv supports. It varies from brand to brand. Been using this trick with an external hard drive for a while now.

    Some viewers may not be aware that there is a device available that lets you play a video on a USB to a TV and it doesn’t matter what format the USB is. The small device “Philips HD Media Player” connects to the TV with a cable, insert the USB into the device and it will play videos or photos in any format.

    Hi there. When I go back to a movie I didn't finish on a USB on my LG screen, sometimes the system asks if I want to resume playback where I left off, which I think it's great. However, this only happens occasionally. I've tried to observe if there is a pattern (i.e. the movie format), but I haven't been able to put my finger on it. Can you shed any light on this? Is there a way to make sure this happens all the time? Thanks!

    Hi there! I had a few questions for you if you have some time. I want to the the animated show Star Wars: The Clone Wars (the entire series) onto a flash drive from my friends PC, so i can watch it on my TV. I am not sure how large the file would be for a entire show, but i was going to purchase a 1TB 3.0 (or higher) flash drive for this, i am guessing that is enough? I really don't know how big files are for a show, or just one movie for that matter. Is 1TB way too much for a series? Would 512mb be enough? Second, when you are watching a movie or a bunch of episodes from a series, does the flash drives usually overheat? I am very new to doing this. I'm looking at some 1TB Sandisc 3.2 flashdrives and they are around $125 usd, that seems reeeealy pricey!! Do you have any advice that you can give me to help me with all this? Thank you very much! Oh one more thing, what are you using to pause, play, forward, rewind? A remove control isn't like a console controller where you can use directional pads (like on a xbox controller etc).
