USB to TV how?

Roger Gunkel · November 25th, 2019, 06:13 AM

Hi Tom,

I have been delivering to my wedding clients on USB for about 6 years and the only tvs I ever have problems with are the Sony ones. The most recent ones don't seem to have a problem, but up to about 12 months ago, I frequently had problems with them recognising the files and'or playing them.

It seems that Sony tvs may require something in the codec that other tvs don't, but what that is, I have never found.

thx Roger for your answer. Maybe it's the file size that causing the problem. I read somewhere about a 2gig limitation for avi files to play on sony bravia. Don't know if that's true.

My client will let me know which files are playing correctly and which don't. Also installed the free program mediainfo to check the codecs,... from my MP4 files.

When I have more info I will post it here.
