I have a USB connection on the back of my LG TV. I would like to connect an external hard drive directly to it and listen to music and watch videos. Recommendations?
I actually plugged in my dongle but all the TV can read are pictures and music - not vids.
I may need to purchase hardware to transform the information readable on the TV.
No idea what I just said!
they probably have to be divx xvid format, i had a lg tv with usb on it and could play divx and xvid on it no problems

Cheers mate. I will look into converting avi to divx / xvid.
...but I still want a storage device to connect to the LG.

u need .avi files mate not mp4 etc
I had avi. files but via dongle the LG never "saw" it. I think I might need hardware that makes the LG recognise the file format.
Example
What model of LG TV is it? Some have native support, some require a "hack", others don't have the feature at all.
For what it's worth, mechanical hard drives have shot up in price over the last few weeks due to the floods in Thailand.
Can be done via a remote hack:
