Seaside linking portable devices to TV

[dmccadden]

Can you link your IPad to the tv? I remember the are no good channels to watch at the end of the day. Maybe this has changed it would be nice to watch download programs from our devices.

Yes. I used iPad. Download movies and shows. Lightning/HDMI adapter and HDMI cable. Tight squeeze but plugged HDMI into side of tv and changed the input on remote. Streamed some too.

I was mostly successful on the Seascape last month.

 

YC1 with a Samsung 50" (that's a guess) wall mounted set.

 

Very tight to get behind there, but I've attached a camera shot.

 

Two USB inputs and three HDMI. 

 

I had an 18" USB extender cable that was very stiff, and was able to get it into the top USB port. My HDMI cable was pretty floppy and I just couldn't get it lined up and pushed into the port.

 

The USB worked fine, and I have no reason to think the HDMI wouldn't have worked, had I been able to connect.

 

There's a key on the remote for 'Source' and it displayed all the ports to select from.

 

I tried both a standard 128GB thumb drive and a USB powered WD Elements 5 TB drive.

 

No problem navigating the file structure on either device, and almost every video format I tried played. I'm pretty sure that included avi, mpg, mov and flv. WMV started and then froze.
