Toshiba 40SL733g - How to play video files from USB flash memory

When I plug my USB flash memory in USB port, Media Player menu shows up with two options : Photos and Settings.
How do I make my TV recognize and play video files from USB flash memory?
Flash is on FAT32.
I have tried to play avi, mp4 and mkv files but nothing happens. It looks like flash is empty.
Could you please help me solve this problem.
Thanks!

bzunic, have you updated the firmware for your model?.
With my own set, (32RL900A), the instruction manual said that certain buttons on the remote control were "unused", however, after the first firmware update, the previously "unused" buttons were used, (In our case, Time Shift, Record, and so on).
The reason I talk about this is, these features became available after a firmware upgrade, and were not mentioned in the user manual, in our case, and a later download of the instruction manual for our model actually gave the instructions for the use of these features, which were shown as "not available", in the original instruction manual supplied with the TV, but became available after the firmware upgrade.
Let us know how it all works out ............

  • Cannot play .avi files from USB Flash Memory UHYB-064GH

    Hi,
    I have recently bought a 64gb Toshiba Flash Memory Drive (Stick). It's model UHYB-064GH.
    Straight out of the box I plugged the USB drive into my Windows PC.
    I'm running Windows Vista.
    I tried to transfer a number of .avi video files to the device, taking up about 10gb of space.
    I tried running the files (using VLC player) straight from the flash drive. Most of the files wouldn't play.
    Only one did but it only played the first 8 seconds of a near 2 hour film.
    The counter in the corner only showed the film to be 8 seconds long?!
    However the properties section of the file confirmed it was a 1.6gb, 2 hour film...?
    I transferred the same video files to a different (old) drive I have and found that it worked fine.
    The drive is a FAT32 one.
    I don't really know much about these things so would be grateful for any advice

    Try to format the USB flash memory in NTFS format.
    The FAT file format supports files up to 4GB but the NTFS format supports bigger sizes.

  • How to play video files that are in Drop box on iPod?

    How to play video files that are in Drop box on iPod?

    I am going to have to write a technote about this, because it comes up a lot.
    Flash Player itself is designed to play SWF content as a browser plugin or as an ActiveX control (when it's IE Windows).
    There is a standalone Flash Player, but that's something Adobe  provides directly as a feature of Flash CS4 Professional. It gets installed with Flash. We have made some standalone players available on http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html, but not all (and I don't know why.  Looking into it)
    There are numerous 3rd party standalone SWF players out there though.  Some designed to just play video, others that play full SWF. I suggest a google search of 'play SWF standalone' and read the results.
    On the Mac, consumers who want to play SWF content off their desktop can use the Adobe Media Player. You can import a local SWF (and FLV and other video) and play it in AMP.  Get it here:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/mediaplayer/
    That's Mac only, doesn't work on Windows.

  • How can I access files from a flash drive that were previously saved using a Windows computer? When I attempt to open the file on MacBook Pro, it is asking to "convert file to"; I also have Microsoft Word installed on the Mac as well.

    How can I access files from a flash drive that were previously saved using a Windows computer? When I attempt to open the file on MacBook Pro, it is asking to "convert file to"; none of the options I choose work. I also have Microsoft Office (with Word) installed on the Mac as well.

    Format the external drive as FAT32 or ExFAT. Both computers will then be able to read and write to it.

  • How to transfer video files from Sony Handycam DCR-SR42 to Mac?

    How do i transfer video files from a Sony Handycam DCR-SR42 to Mac?

    First suggestion would be to read your manual that came with the camea for proper cable use for transfer.  The iMac has a FW800 port and also USB2.0 port.  Once connected you can import them into iMove and edit them from there.  Some Sony codecs may require converting. 
    Firewire Cable is first needful thing.

  • How do I transfer files from a flash drive to my iPad? Do I need an adapter?

    How do I transfer data from a flash drive to my iPad 2? Do I have to have an adapter or special device to do this?

    You can use the camera connection kit to plug in a flash drive. But there are a lot of 'buts'.
    First, most flash drives will trigger a 'device requires too much power' warning and will not work. (I had a 50/50 success rate)
    Second, the iPad will only import properly named photo and video files. You cannot transfer music or documents.
    Third, there is zero support for the export of files.
    You can look into wireless flash drives. The Kingston WiDrive is just one example. They generate a localized wifi hotspot that you can connect your iPad to and then use an app to transfer files.

  • NB100 - How can I reinstall OS from USB flash drive

    My TOSHIBA NB 100 notebook does not have CD-DVD drive.
    OS is Windows XP Home SP2.
    OS is not booting.
    Notebook won't start at all so I cannot run any sort of test when i turn it on.
    The we apologize screen come on it says run safe mode, safe mode networking, safe mode comand prompt or start windows normally. But no matter which I chose it won't start it only goes to Windows and seems like its starting but then shows the blue Windows screen & stays there.
    So I want to reload Windows from my USB flash drive.
    The BIOS boot sequence is HDD - FDD - FD - CD - USB Memory.
    What are the steps for loading Windows from USB flash drive?
    If this does not work then I want to connect another laptop with Windows CD in its CD-DVD drive to the Notebook.
    Will this work? Will the Notebook use the Windows CD in the laptop drive to load the OS?
    How to do this connection?

    Hi
    Usually you would need an external USB CD/DVD drive in order to boot from the Windows XP disk or Toshiba recovery disk.
    But there is a method which allows you to install the Win XP using 2GB USB flash drive.
    This is possible because the BIOS of NB100 support the booting from USB memory stick.
    Pease check this internet page:

    Hope it could be helpful.

  • Booting from USB Flash Memory Card Reader on RS480M2-IL (Test Results)

    I just completed testing my USB Flash Memory Card Reader (see profile) as a boot device and wanted to provide feedback to the Forum.
    A UBS Flash card will show-up on the Advanced Bios Features menu, Hard Disk Boot Priority list, when a Flash card is physically present in a card slot.  It showed as "USB-HDD0 : AFT PRO -8MX CF 0" with a 256MB Compact Flash (CF) card for my test.  Using the enter key on the Hard Disk Boot Priority list allows for ordering priority, which was necessary to place the CF Drive before my real Hard Drive for the card to boot.  When the card is removed, it drops from the list.
    I initialized my CF card as a DOS system disk using HP's USB Disk Storage Format Tool v2.0.6 for the test.
    Since it is recognized as a Hard Drive, it boots as the C: drive, not A/B Floppy alternative.
    I also ran a quick test to see if XP Pro Setup would see the drive.  It does show as my D: drive partitioned FAT.  Too small (256MB) obviously for XP Pro install, but it does present opportunity for larger size flash modules.  My Flash Reader actually has 4 different disk functions/slot groups, so XP Setup acknowledge the presents of those empty three slot groups as "Unknown Disk" on the drive list.
    I hope the information is useful for anyone planning a build or looking for alternative boot methodolgy with the board.
    This board just gets better and better.

    So with a nice size flash memory u could start your box with a key drive and lock up your computer when you leave it unattended.

  • How to compress video files from 10.0.8?

    I need to compress my videos to share them on Dropbox. In the share options, I only get the file to be reduced from 149 MB down to 95 MB. How can I reduce it more to better share it and use in teaching? (I need to embedd three short videos in a Power Point, now it takes about 20 minutes to upload it).
    On different forums, it's described how you can export the files to Quick Time to reduce file size without changing the quality and some speak of using Compressor, however, I can't find any of this in iMovie 10.0.8.
    Are there any app's you recommend using?
    Appreciate all the help I can get :-)

    Hi Vishu Thakur,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand you want to move videos from your computer to your iPad Air and are trying to use Home Sharing to move the files. The process of moving files from your computer to your iPad is called syncing and would use iTunes to actually move the files from iTunes to the iPad. The article attached explains the process.

  • E65 wont play video files from 6233

    just switched from a 6233 to an E65 and have transfered all my content to it.
    the .3gp video files that were originally recorded on the 6233 come up with an error message and then only play the sound. all other .3gp files that were sent to me from other makes of phone play fine, as do the .mp4 files.
    Anyone know whats going on? its pretty dumb for a newer nokia to not be able to play older nokia video's, yet play sony ericsson and samsung videos....

    It is a little complex and it isnt really a UCM problem. Basically you are seeing differences between client software.
    In Mozilla you can configure which external apps are used to open certain types of file
    In Mozilla you can view Tools > Options > Applications and configure which app opens files (by file extension)
    IE has some functionality like this in Tools > Internet Options > Programs however it is not as fine grained. It sounds like IE thinks it can natively display this file.
    I strongly recommend that you find out what the Content-Type header is using Live HTTP Headers or similar.
    THough you have configured the filetype in UCM you need to make sure that the webserver is set correctly as well if you are using weblayout URL as this is not being served by the UCM java process but by the webserver itself straight from the file system. Playing with the content-type header will change this behaviour.

  • How to convert video file from mpg to 3g2?

    I am using final cut express and I tried to add a few video files. The formats with 3g2 worked but the others that did not work were mpg. With the mpg files the actual video worked but the audio did not show up. I do not know how to convert them.. please help?!

    Hello and welcome to the forum.
    Where did this video come from? FCE uses QuickTime files with specific frame sizes/rates and codecs. You can convert many other types of files so they're FCE-compatible using utilities such as MPEG Streamclip (which is free).
