Question:

What Media Play (Media 2.0) Functions Does My USB Port Support?

 

Answer:

There are two versions of Media Play available, Media Play and Media Play (Movie).

If your television has Media Play, you can use the USB port to view pictures or play music stored on a compatible USB device.

If your television has Media Play (Movie), you can also view video.

To use Media Play, you need to attach a compatible USB device containing the appropriate files to the USB port on your TV.

To use Media Play, you also need files that meet Media Play requirements.

To see the requirements for the different media type files, review the media type you�re interested in below:

Other Considerations
