Dear ha14 and FIDELIS – how do you format the external hard drive to become fat32?

Jessica, I sympothise! I purchased a Samsung TV – making sure that it had a USB port just so that I could watch movies from a USB key – but as you are saying – the TV does not see them. Have you found a work around?

Hello, by default external hard drive has to be fat32 formatted. Mind you, there are some TVs that accept input from NTFS formatted external hard drives.

what is the format of hard disk, and what is the format of the movies ?
only movies are not detected or the tv cant read anything from the disk?
do it read oher files like pictures or music ?
some tvs can play only images.
